Didn't feel it, however , Baja California is an active seismic zone.

There are many faults lines as it moves north and away from the mainland.

I am frankly suprised that we don't have a major event.

we don't get major events because we have lots of miner ones. the plats don't bind up on the fault until just north of the gulf of Ca..

Didn't feel a thing.

And I'm pretty sure I was out of bed by then.




I think the world is run by C- students.
