We live on STT and feel them frequently. We've had a couple of items fall off the walls, and we suspect a cistern leak due to an earthquake generated crack. Overall they're no big deal, but then I was reared on the San Andreas fault. 😀

I feel them all the time when I'm on island. My wife says it's the rum.
