    Felt the quake in Brantford, it felt like a "rolling" quake, as I was literally rolling in my chair at work, not jumpy.

    Didn't feel anything on Georgian Bay. Herald of the G8/G20's arrival I suppose?

    I felt this in South Burlington, VT. It only lasted for a few seconds but the floor in my apt shook lightly. Not bad. No damage. Just haven't felt earthquakes here since the last one in 2002.

    Felt it here in St. Catharines. I felt like I was in a boat rolling on the waves. Quite an awesome feeling. What I found odd was my immediate neighbors didn't feel anything. I was beginning to think I had imagined it, until more info came out.

    I thought it was traffic at first as I live in a high traffic area.

    Probably time to think about re-locating to areas with more open fields.
