Did the earth move for you?

Phil Temples: Did anyone else feel an itty-bitty earthquake on the Boston area at approx. 7:45am ET on 8/19?

Stanford declares we're going to die.

There's nothing on the USGS map. Nearest quake during the past week was in Virginia.

Conterminous? Was 'contiguous' too obvious? I hate looking up things and learning. :-)

Jeez, I guess she really did rock my world. Expect more of these tremors, I like this girl...

You people are so weird. I called the Weston Observatory and the scientists (geologists, doctors... whatever) over there said there was "NOTHING" regarding earthquake activity.

I call dibs on a block of the rebuilt Back Bay area after the next big one hits us.

...caused by the stampede of passengers off inbound Fitchburg train #404 that arrived at North Station at 0745--30 minutes late.

The aisles were so crammed with standees by the time we left Waltham, the conductors couldn't get through to check tickets.

Safety fail, revenue fail.

For the first time ever, I heard a conductor advising passengers about the On-Time Service Guarantee program. Some passengers weren't even aware they're entitled to free round-trip tickets (which are redeemable for cash).

Did any bell tolling accompany the earth moving?
