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.
