Default Quake!

Just had the building rock back and forth for several seconds as a 5.2 temblor hit north east of here. It was apparently felt from Manizales to Popyan. And Islander thought it was my breakfast cocktail!

Just my two cents but I don't think the elevator is where you want to be during an earthquake - head for the stairs. Or maybe that rule applies only to fires?
