I was sitting on the couch watching TV.  I thought I was going crazy.  It felt like a fighter jet flying just over the house without the noise.  I said to myself that if I didn't know any better I'd think that was a freaking earthquake.  It won't be long before the Lord returns:  read Revelation.

The news reported it was felt in Canada and there have been reports it was felt in Bama to.
A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands, love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper; his hands remember the rifle.

Felt it right smart in Culpeper VA, about 26 miles from Mineral(epicenter). It shook so hard here that all the deer mount fell off my walls. The old memorabilia type tractor barn that was my great grandfathers collapsed too. The target in culpeper collapsed in one place and The gym at the high school is done for.

I heard the same thing gobbler74, that the rocks are alot harder and colder. And thats why it was felt worse than what it was,right? when it quakes down here it feels like the earth rolls. I remember my dad snatching me out of bed when I was a lil guy and trying to run out of the house, when the "North Ridge" quake hit.(look that one up) my dad still says that he could see the road roll like 2ft waves. That one was bad,even earth quake "proof" freeways fell.

I was on the 3rd floor of the parking garage at Fairfax County INOVA Hospital sitting in my car when it struck.....

Let's just say I looked around and cars were rocking up and down/side to side everywhere.

Looked like a bunch of cadillacs w/ hydraulics in the movie Next Friday.
