Western Washington state, the whole house was shaking for about ten seconds or so, just a few minutes ago.
San Francisco's over 500 miles away, but:

They had one back in either 01/02 when I was stationed at McChord AFB there in Tacoma and it scared the daylights out of me. I was on the 2nd floor of a 3 story building and it shook for about 10 seconds. That was one of the deciding factors of not staying there any longer than I had to.
Where AT in Western Washington? I live on the border and I didnt feel anything (course I live in the middle of the state so.....
bout 35 - 40 miles east of Battleground WA.
(Course with the kind of old ancient bed I have, it isnt much of a wonder why I'd 'miss' any earthquake)

I was on the phone with a United Airlines maintenance controller and as we were working together, he said, "we're having an earthquake." It was a small tremor as he said but still a quake nonetheless. This was shortly after midnight EST.
