[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 455324, member: 3444"] Glad to know everyone is o.k.! :bigsmile: What would be most worrisome to me, if I lived there, is the fact (correct me if I'm wrong) that most of the buildings on the east coast (and likely in the midwest as well) are not built to withstand too much shaking. The building codes out here have been changed a lot over the past 40 years to take seismic activity into account. Thanks to those changes, my addition, built 11 years ago, will likely remain standing even if the rest of my house collapses! :winks: [/QUOTE]
