3.9? That's nothin'... I mean actually, that's a pretty small quake. The Loma Prieta (6.7?) was nearly 1000X stronger. That Richter scale is logarithmic, you know...
I was in Stockton at the time - you haven't experience a quake until you hear it coming towards you. Everyone in Stockton has a car alarm, so I could hear the quake coming up the street. I was off the couch, down 2 flights of stairs, and out the door in 4 steps - before it hit us. Crazy! No damage, just a wild ride listening to the house creak and groan...
