I've been through 3 or 4 big ones in LA.
Not fun 'cause you don't see them coming.

not trying to be funny.
Just have to be prepared - like keep big speakers off shelves, etc. :wink:

We have had at least about 60 of them through this 2009... 4 of them where pretty strong, and one in paricular, which epicenter was in Argentina, was really strong, I was recording a song for Mojo Demo called Full Void, it was at about 4 in the morning if I remember well... My screen moved really hard from left to write, I thought the plastic base would brake :o

5.5 is a baby.
the one we had the other day was around that size, it knocked over two precarious things(a tall, narrow vase up high and a metal sculpture with a very small base), shook the house and was gone(my wife took off like a shot, though :lol: ).

it really gets interesting about 6.5-7. then, structures start fallling and the earth can even open up if you're lucky...

At 6.+ stuff starts falling out of cupboards and refrigerators open up and dump everything out onto the floor.
Foundations crack. Buildings and bridges collapse.

Not fun.
