    Eh? There are over 10 minor quakes and 2 moderate quakes within the confines of what is defined as "Philippine Terrority" daily. We live on an archipelago that straddles several major faults and we are on the Pacific "Rim of Fire". Naturally, we're in earthquakelandia.

    Andy's report above doesn't necessarily mean that that is the same quake that Harvz felt. The minor quakes range from 1-2 on the Richter scale, too low to be felt, but the minor ones can be 3-4.

    I didn't claim it was not the same quake--it could have been the reason. But this doesn't mean that it can't be another unpublished, undetected, or unreported one. You can only have so much seismometers and reading stations.
