Felt the Mexicali quake here -- just barely. I was seated and wondered why I was feeling a bit dizzy, like the seat was rocking back and forth. That was because it was; I could see a nearby door oscillating slightly. My wife and our roomie, who were both standing, didn't notice anything. The motion was that wave motion at the surface that comes of a powerful temblor a long way off, not the vertical motion of one that's under your feet.
