Earthquake on East Coast

A 5.9 quake has been reported in the east coast with no real damage reported so far. It's kind of interesting the reactions on cable news: it's as if a major catastrophe hit, breathlessly telling us about how they felt during it, and how the trains are slowing down, and how traffic is snarled. Big deal. As a native Californian, this is a minor shaker. It's interesting how big a deal the east coast based media are making of this, while they virtually ignore it when we have one. Ye gods!
