When I was in the 6.3, there was no screaming. Probably because Californians just know it’s an earthquake, and not likely to panic. There was lots of rumbling, but I really thought it was somebody messing around with the wall. They were those kind of walls that you see in cubicles, except they went to the ceiling. Very cheap.
I just missed it. It does happen, especially if you are in a spot that just doesn’t move. Ask a W. Coast person. Happens to the best of us, yet nothing to do with ADD. Can’t blame it on the ADD, just weird geological shifts.
Supposedly, the type of rock on the E. Coast contributed to it being felt far away. Nothing to do with strength, just rocks. I’m telling you, it’s just a strange world we live in/on.
