Holy shiznit, I just felt a fairly strong quake here in Hollywood.

Update: here's the data: Link. Looks like there were actually several right after each other, one two point something, one three point something, the other 5.3, all centered roughly 70 miles east of downtown LA. There's been a lot of seismic activity buzzing lately, before / during / after the 7.0 honker that hit Northern California earlier this week.
