javacatWe just had an earthquake: a 3.4 in Orinda. Huh, there have already been 2 others around the same magnitude/same area this AM. Hmm.

It's oddly gratifying to correctly distinguish the office building shaking because a bus or a truck has hit a pothole, which jolts the building, from an actual earthquake. This earthquake rolled, as most of ours do. The one that weirded me out a month or so ago was a slam/jolt. I'm still surprised that it was below 4.0.
