Ah..I grew up in the Bay Area..in between two fault lines. I swear we had a little one daily. 5.1 is nothing either. Just a fun little shake em up.
The big ones and even the little ones (unless you live between two faults with one the fence line of your house following) are pretty rare. Well, that you can feel. Actually all over the world there are tiny ones all the time. ALL the time. My point is the ones you can feel..rare..so it never ceases to amaze me that my wimpy Minnesota relatives wont come out here to visit cause California has earthquakes..meanwhile they put up with their weekly tornados. Now which of us is insane?
Earthquake? Little one? Bed shakes..a book might fall off the case. Tornado? I quarentee a trailer park somewhere will be leveled.
