my understanding is that an earthquake on the fault line nearest saint louis would completely rape us all
it's gonna be awesome.

Niiiice. I hadn't gone to sleep yet and felt the bed get a little shifty. I popped up and asked my fiancee wtf it was... she said it was either the obese people upstairs or (being a smart ass) an earthquake.

Later, on the news, I saw where we did feel some of it in Chattanooga, TN.

It woke me up at about 4:40 and then I felt the aftershock at about 10:17.The aftershock felt the same as the earthquake.If you're ever in the Ozarks west of STL,ask the locals to show you where the fault line is.You can actually see the depession in the ground for miles.
