I felt it too, vibrating my couch, but it didn't visibly affect the rest of the furniture.

The strange thing is differing reports of length. Saturday's news said Roswell felt it for almost 4 minutes. You felt it for "a couple of seconds." Mine lasted between 30 to 45 seconds. I didn't time it, but I took time to recognize I was feeling something strange, then analyze what might be the cause, then finally realize, "Wow! It's an earthquake!"

Now I'm puzzling over the different times. Maybe traveling through different rock strata enhanced or damped the waves over distance. Not important, but intriguing.
