[BC] Re: shakin'

It woke both my wife and I up.  Wondered if I slipped a quarter in my sleep 
and activated the "magic fingers", but realized it was an earthquake.  Got 
on the USGS website not long after and confirmed.  Missed the 10:14 
aftershock.  I have officially survived my first *felt* earthquake.  Too bad 
I didn't get to put my elementary school earthquake drill training to use.

Morning show buddy of mine saw the mic booms in the studio dancing, plus the 
TV mounted above his head squeaking, which made him a little unsettled...

Made for fodder on pretty much every morning show I heard today.

Felt that here, too.  WFIE-TV in Evansville, Indiana reported an
aftershock at 15 minutes after.
