It happened the day after I moved to the USA

My friends and family all seem to be ok (facebook), no damages or deaths have been reported.

We're actually average in terms of earthquakes for this year.

We just seem to think differently due to a wonderful little thing called the media.

Oh, and because a decent sized one hit a place that doesn't have the infrastructure for it - Haiti.

I love the media sometimes, what with them blowing things out of proportion.

Anyone notice that we've been covering global warming and hurricanes less and less after they got proven majorly wrong about predictions and stuff?

And now these earthquakes are a nice attention shift.

Ask Cirv. It wasn't really as bad as this paints.

The 'oh shit' ones are when we start getting to the 8 or better mark. 5-something isn't really that major.

	Well, the epicenter was on the west side of the island. That is the least populated side since its mostly arid and much drier than the east side. Had it been on the more densely populated side or near San Juan, it could have been much worse even as just a 5.7. Thankfully no one was hurt and no significant damage has been reported. ____________________

I've slept through earthquakes like this one before, wake me up when they hit 6.5.
