Hi Karen, I'm about 100 miles from the epicenter.I was at the computer checking out the laahs.com discussion board when the house started shaking. My wife and baby boy were sitting on the couch watching TV in the same room. I actually had the camcorder right next to me, fumbled and grabbed it and hit play just as it ended(missed it, it lasted about 10 seconds, darn!). They would have made CNN. It certainly was an interesting sensation. Rob
