Everybody in Boston seems to have felt it but I didn't feel it in Somerville. My work building (200 year old former typhoid hospital in the South End of Boston) apparently swayed significantly and at least one of my coworkers got freaked the quack out.
According to CNN some buildings as far north as New York and as far south as NC were evacuated. I had no idea that 5.9 would stretch that far, but my earthquake knowledge is non existent.

I'm so glad to hear that everyone is ok. I barely felt it here, just enough to notice my chair swaying.
In the eastern US quakes can be felt for hundreds of miles. We had a 5.2 about 3 years ago and it shook some skyscrapers in Chicago about 250 miles north of the epicenter. Seriously some scary shit.
It shook for a bit in my living room, just west of Boston. For the first couple seconds I thought it was an 18-wheeler on the highway next to my house.
noage are you in Charlotte? I didn't feel it at all.
Yeah, I was right off Park Rd. when it happened.
I'm working near Harris Blvd and 485. I don't know how I didnt feel it. My mom cuts hair in Huntersville and she said didn't feel it, but everyone else in the salon did. Maybe it was my DNA that prevented me. How strong was it where you were at?

Pretty weak, but noticeable. Some stuff on my desk was shaking and I could feel the floor vibrating.
I work on the 52nd floor of a building that shook for like 6 seconds in NY and you would have thought a meteor just smashed into the Statue of Liberty. I wanted to incinerate my Facebook news feed due to the fact that every post since it happened has been about the "quake". The live media coverage was a nice touch, too.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
