ralphwiggum 6 Posted September 3, 2002 this is a very 'normal' experience in LA. the last one that was this big was Sept. 1999, around end of month. i was sleeping and the earth shook. i decided to just keep sleeping in, but my roommate ran to the hallway and stood there. i finally got up after he started yelling at me. by the time i got next to him, it was over Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
