I was about four when the 89' earthquake hit the bay area. It was weird--the manager at the daycare I was at totaly broke down, but I didn't even notice because I was on the bars, untill the aftershock hit and I was at home at dinner. To this day, the UC Berkley stadium has a crack going through it from the fault line. I think it's at the 50 yard line? Not sure.

But thank you for evoking this all so well.
