    As someone who grew up in Whittier I can't say I agree. We got hit HARD in 87 & that was less than a 6.0 :D

    DUDE!!! I grew up in Whittier too! In 87 I was sitting on the living room floor and the house seemed to shake FOREVER!! Wow, that was under 6.0?? Holy cow!
    I was in my first year as CSUF and I worked at the Ralphs Market on Painter and Whittier Blvd. The aisles were such a mess there, racked up a lot of overtime during the clean up but you had to be over 21 to clean up in the Alcohol Dept because all the booze was spilled all over the place!! Craziness!

    Whittier & Painter? Where the Quad was/is? That place got messed up BIG TIME! Scary! I would've hate to have been there. Didn't that entire parking structure collapse there too???

    Not sure where Trailer lives. Santa Barbara is about 2 hours north of LA.
    Might not have felt that hit.

    I was in Santa Barbara for the Northridge quake, and that one we felt and it actually took our power out for about 12 hours. That was a big earthquake. Crazy.
