Hi Karen,

I didn't feel anything and I was on my way home from work at that time. I doubt I would have felt anything in my car since the roads here suck and It would have to be in the 8.5 range before you'd realize it. I have been through several before, I grew up in California.

Scientists do say that a major earthquake is possible here and if thats the case then I am dead meat. I live in the basement of a three story apartment building and none of the structures in New England are built to withstand earthquakes. Hope it's quick.

P.S. I did get your tape and as soon as I can drive for more than 20 minutes I'll get those caps done for you.
