… on the left coast of Florida. Son greeted me with this news this morning and we were totally unaware. (Caveat: We live near enough to the airport that we probably would have attributed it to an unusual change to flight patterns. We don’t normally notice the noise, and never any window-rattling, so I think if there were unusual tremblings, we would have noticed.) Apparently, people felt it in Orlando (way up center state from us) and South Florida.

Didn’t the Philippines just have a big quake, too?
