Was there just an earthquake in NYC?

My seat and keyboard were just vibrating, and I don't normally feel subway trains here.

3. You can't trust those paid USG$ shills any farther than you can throw them.

They're only in it for the $weet, $weet money.

5. Is that a joke?

7. Well, they'd have to be in collusion with

EMSC and GeoNet

I have them both on my iPhone app along with the USGS

10. Didn't feel it. I'm having a much weirder hallucination.

I'm hearing planes overhead in Manhattan. What, other than planes overhead in Manhattan which should still be very forbidden, would cause that sound?

13. In 2002 I flew from Kansas City

to Laguardia, and we flew directly over Manhattan. Seemed a bit odd, but it was a GREAT view, and reminded me of how much I love NYC, even though I rarely get there.

14. Actually, something else weird did happen.

I saw two military helicopters followed by a chinook helicopter around 1:15 today flying NE over the Upper East Side/Bronx area. I thought that was strange. I don't think I've seen that before in NY.

I have seen planes fly over Times Square a bunch of times since 9/11. In fact, it happened on the first night back to work after 9/11. Everyone was looking up including the cops because we were told that planes weren't allow over the city.

11. Probably construction or demolition nt

12. Breaking the sound barrier?

It feels like a fast earthquake when pilots break the sound barrier overhead of you. Any military bases close by that could be testing their aircraft?
