Funny you posted that, Gini.

There was a quake in Canada near the NY border last week. We're about 200 miles south of the border, and about 400 miles from the epicenter of the quake.

Shortly after the news story went up on the local newspaper's website, there were initial comment of "There was an earthquake?".

After people had been TOLD there was an earthquake, however, all sorts of people reported feeling the ground move.
