I felt it. No one else did, but it was unmistakable. I was in my hammock, suspended by amsteel, hanging from a steel frame, and I felt a definite "buzz". I checked, and sure enough, seismograph don't lie.
Anyone else noticed this sensitivity?

You have a seismograph?!?

No doubt, trees would modulate a distant temblor, but the combination of the steel stand sitting on a concrete slab, a zero-stretch suspension, and a nylon hammock turned me into a sort of seismograph needle. It was really a cool 3 second ride.

Earthquakes are funny things... lived with them all my life... they operate in all three axis, so some shake side to side, others up/down, some even in circles.... many are all three...
USGS says 2:05am local time 2.8 magnitude 1km wsw of Jones OK.
Honestly, a 2.8? My kids make more noise. . .
As long as I don't get tornadoes, I will share my earthquakes. . .

I've always liked earthquakes. In 2008 I was rudely awoken by a 5.4 magnitude earthquake that originated 20 miles from where I lived. At first I thought it sounded like a train coming down the road.
