Default Earthquake!

I can't type with all this shaking going on. I am on the 6th floor and the whole building is swaying back-and-forth. Hope no damages.

We felt it pretty good here in Scotts Valley. Two series of jolts, spaced maybe 5 seconds apart, shook the entire building.

Felt it here in downtown San Jose as well. I was in a meeting on the 6th floor of a 13 story building and could feel the building swaying. Pretty freaky.

I felt it here in Palo Alto. I started feeling nauseous as well and wasn't sure if I was jittery or if it was an earthquake. Then looked at the IV's and stethescopes we have hanging in our workroom and they were swaying back and forth.
