    Yeah, we felt it 2 minites later here in central Indiana. It was a 5.4 in IL. I was waiting for an explosion. Then when it didn't happen I figured it was a quake and turned the radio on. Sure enough, that is what it was.

    yeah, this is my first time being awake for one, too! i hope everyone's ok near the epicenter...no broken gas lines or anything. at least the ground is thawed out now...don't have to worry about the added strain of hard frozen ground and hard frozen lines.

    i'm surprised there hasn't been a major quake from the New Madrid fault in southern IL. the last big one from there was in the 1800's...made the Mississippi River run backward for 3 days and rang church bells in north carolina!

    it must have been closer to ohio than illinois...i'm in central IL, about an hour and 15 minutes from indiana, and it was barely noticable...sounds like you guys got shook up a bit more.
