Thank you guys! I'm the only one living in the city (folks and brother live in another state, sister near D.C.) I was just arriving to work, which happens to be at the Geophysics Institute and I was walking so didn't feel a thing :lol: But I saw everybody outside and my first thought was I just got here and there's already a drill. The only thing that I don't like is that I can hear the alarm whenever there's a replicate (they've said there have been 3 so far but damn alarm must be very sensitive). Luckily I'm near one of the safest places but I really don't look forward getting on the subway later
Btw, Malia (sp?) is vacationing in Oaxaca and she's ok, if anyone is wondering... :lol:

today we had another one (5 this time) and I didn't feel a thing either, was late for a seminar so I was walking fast. I don't know if I should feel relieved or worried that I don't feel them :conf:

I can't believe I still feel dizzy today. I heard the sismic alarm this morning but didn't feel anything. Since last week I've been feeling like this, hope it's nothing serious.
