I was in a meeting on the second floor when it happened, and neither of us noticed anything unusual. When I got upstairs to work everyone was talking about what they'd felt.

There was a tsunami at the G20 fake lake, apparently.
 
Interestingly, a blackhawk helicopter left the convention centre almost immediately after the earthquake happened. Pretty good response time. They were probably wondering if something had happened somewhere, and I have to admit my first instinct was that something happened at the Airport.
 
I was laying on my bed watching Obama on CNN and thought it was a nerve in my back quivering my body, then I saw my PC desk here shaking from side to side. It spilled a bit of my full cup of coffee over the edges. 24th floor here downtown.
