Come on, get real. Magnitude 2.0 rock nothing. What utter BS.

The earth never moved for me.

The quakes are not even listed in the USGS website nor in the GDACS newsletter.

I remember I was in Central Festival when there was an earthquake, I think in 2014. The building was brand new and it is huge but it started shaking like a deck of cards. I found it very amusing how people were running like ants, screaming. 

I stayed in a restaurant ,sipping my coffee and laughing my a$$ off.

And I say so too, about earthquakes !
Guess what, every day my prediction is  statistically more relevant.

But seriously, the lustre was not swinging that I noticed.
