[/quote] god you guys are THICK. they are NOT felt stronger. they are felt for a further distance. read it again. and again. try to comprehend. a 2.5 is felt as a 2.5. i'm concerned about the gene pool east of the rockies [/quote] Were you there? Just let it go already. OP posted they felt it within two minutes of it happening. They obviously felt it. [/quote] The point here is when people who are not used to feeling quakes feel a small one they freak. it gets over exaggerated in the excitement and novelty of it. Then inevitably when someone from the west coast who feels them all the time pokes fun that it was only a small quake, then the "the east coast feels them stronger" crap begins. It is a willful twisting of the facts to cover the embarrassment of the initial overreaction. I don't see where you read anyone questioning whether or not there was a quake. What I see is someone was pointing out that many on here are jackasses for not getting that "carries further" does not mean "increases the magnitude so we feel it stronger". [/quote] And it all depends by how much USGS fudged the actual magnitude [/quote] What would be the point of fudging one isolated minimal quake? [/quote]
