I think you're talking about the one in Virginia, that happened before the one in Maine and was stronger. It happened when I was at work, some people said they felt it but some didn't, I didn't feel anything.

The one in Maine was unmistakable, I had water next to me and even the water was shaking. But I have a friend in Massachussets which is closer to Maine, and he didn't feel anything. I think it depends on the local geology, maybe in one location the ground absorbs the energy, and the bedrock in other places lets the energy travel hundreds of miles.

The other Aluelk did get hurt, but he's okay now.
