I am like 2 miles from epicenter. Definitely felt it. Nice and strong. Spilled my drink all over my desk, all the things on the walls are crooked now, etc. Nobody hurt though, and my 325 is fine.

6.8 is pretty nasty. the Richter scale is not linear. It's logarithmic (?), so 6.8 is more like 10x or something worse than a 5.4
