<pointless ramble> I THINK ABOUT EARTHQUAKES EVERY DAY.
i live within 6 hours of the New Madrid fault line (Missouri). the major one that everyone knows about was in 1811-1812. a lot of places here have been preparing for any activity in the last few years. i had an assignment in 7th grade to research a natural disaster and i got the New Madrid earthquakes...i found a lot of info that i still have. the one thing that sticks to me a lot is..."The probability for an earthquake of magnitude 6.0 or greater is significant in the near future, with a 50% chance by the year 2000 and a 90% chance by the year 2040."
i do NOT work well with natural disasters, every time i hear a loud rumble or feel a little shake, i effing FAREAK out. </pointless ramble>

to answer your question, never experienced one.

Good thing you put <pointless ramble> about that, because, not only am I, too, from Missouri, but I have never heard of the earthquake of 1811-1812 that you make sound so famous, and bragging about the New Madrid fault line is like bragging about winning Yahtzee, especially since there are never any earthquakes around here.
