So who experienced the mag. 5.0 earthquake in the north eastern states & eastern central Canada?
I heard Ontario, Quebec, New York, Michigan even down to Ohio felt it.

yeah NS, for Canada to have anything more than a light rumble is odd from what I've seen. But now looking at the news & the fault lines along the St Laurence etc... kinda makes you wonder about Dec. 21, 2012 Nostradamus etc lol
just googled that... we have 911 days, 17hours, 22 minutes & 40 seconds
better get them builds done QUICK!

wow, that's scarey yet cool at the same time, I mean its amazing the power something that has a epicenter just N of ottawa is felt so far around
& scarey that she was about to fall off the "throne" lol...
I'd love to experience 1 like that, no California style ones for me thanks but a mediocre 5.0, that'd be a rush!

I live in NY and didn't feel a thing, so it must have been the northern areas that felt it.
