Two days ago, I was reading about the spate of small earthquakes which hit the East Bay recently and thinking morbidly about what to do if a big one hit the Bay Area while I was out of town.
Then, yesterday evening around 8:30pm, while we were standing in the lobby of Partyworld KTV waiting for our room, we felt a definite ripple, and then heard a popping noise from one of the huge, multi-story long chandeliers suspended from the ceiling. We quickly moved to a safer area, just in case. It turns out there was a large earthquake off the coast of Pingtung, on the southern coast of Taiwan, followed by a series of aftershocks.
