Earthquakes in LA?

So who felt that? According to Xeni there was a 3.? followed by a 5.? about 70 miles east of downtown LA...

Update: Yes I know earthquakes happen all the time and no-ones impressed any more. New Zealand is one big fault-line with a few volcanoes thrown in for good measure, so I'm well acquainted with earthquakes. I was merely interested in who, if anyone, actually felt those two. (The last one I felt made me wonder if my hangover was worse than I thought- until I looked at Mo and saw he had the same "was that an earthquake or was it just me?" look...)

Oh honey, Californians barely blink at a 5.0, more so when it's 70 miles off the coast. There was a 7.0 off the coast up near me a few days ago... never felt it.
