virginia earthquake felt here at towers of ilium

We just experienced the delayed effects of an earthquake that originated in Virginia. Our building, which is an 8 story, cast in place concrete structure that dates from the 1920's swayed back and forth to a degree that I had never experienced before. It was a good reminder of the elasticity of most building materials.

Post edited--Towers of Ilium would like to apologize for spelling and grammar errors in recent posts. The people responsible have been sacked.
