120 small quakes total.....felt the larger, 10 second rumble. No biggie.....the Dodgers were playing and Vinnie did a play by play.....no one in the crowd said a word.
Pretty much a non event but a slow news day and the networks went off on it.

I am surprised that when I am in Palm Springs I have noticed many overhanging rocks that could fall on houses and trailer parks. It would not take much to shake them loose due to an earthquake.

No big deal. I'm actually surprised it was a 5.1.

I felt a soft rumble, but was sitting in an unpadded wood dining room chair on a hard surface. Lying in bed, or otherwise being in motion I probably would not have. Also surprised it was that big.
Hard jolt, short duration = close but small. Rolling motion, long duration = big but far away. Hard jolt, long duration = look for cover!

I felt a slight shake in my motel room in Mojave. At first I wasn't sure what was going on but then I remembered I'm at the left coast.

@ Scott - are you sure it's still called San Andreas Fault? Being California, I'm fairly certain it's been renamed as Bush's Fault.
