Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Lines: 13 Status: RO Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Length: 891 My name is Joe Snyder and I live in Redding,Ca. and experienced the earthquake that occured 3 mi. nnw of Redding at 1:38 a.m. on Tuesday July 21, 1998. At the time it happened I was asleep and I heard this sound like a train coming through my bedroom and then the windows rattled and the house shooked. I knew that it was a earthquake because I have been in one before. It only lasted about 17 seconds. The first thing I did was to check if anything was broken or fell off the shelves in the house. Finding that there wasn't anything broken; I made my way to my computer to log on to a web page that deals with earthquakes to see where the quake was centered and how strong it was. It was 4.5 magnitude and was 3 miles NNW from Redding. The quake itself was a rolling motion and not a jerking motion. We have had about seven aftershocks since then. Joe Snyder jes777@c-zone.net
