I didn't feel it. I didn't even know about it until I logged into facebook and it was everyone's status update. I realize it's they are pretty uncommon in this area, but people are acting like it's the freakin' end-times. It's all anybody's talking about.

That's because talking about the earthquake is more fun than working.

I missed it as I was driving at the time, but lots of office buidlings in Toronto were being evacuated. We were trying to figure out why and only learned a couple of hours later that there had been an earthquake.

Felt it. One of my employees and I originally thought one of our machines had crashed. We then started checking the local news websites.

What kind of machines are you running that they shake buildings if they crash?

I didn't feel it either but there were some mugs hanging on hooks in my kitchen and they began swaying.

Didn't feel it in NYC, but we Manhattanites have no feelings anyway.

Actually they are quite common in this area, but most of them are small. There was one 2-3 years back. Here is info on the area:
The Western Quebec Seismic Zone

Heh heh heh. 5.0
Here in EarthquakeLand, seems like we get a 5 every year. After hanging items stop swaying, go back to whatever you were doing. Things get interesting at 7.

Yeah, I do realize that. It's only the third one that anyone's felt this far south since I've been living here. This one and the one before it I didn't even notice. The one I did (I think I was 13 or so), I was asleep and I woke up thinking there was an animal under my bed. I grabbed a baseball bat and started poking around. It wasn't until later when my mother asked me if I felt it that I realized I was a dumbass
