    Here in Alaska, we usually don't even get out of bed for anything under 7 on the Richter scale.

    There have been 36 earthquakes in Alaska of magnitude 2.5 or greater in the last week. To be fair, California had 15 over the same period.

    See here for earthquakes around the world over the last week.

    I know . . . sorry. They only report magnitude 2.5 or greater for the U. S. and 4.0 or greater for the rest of the world (yours was 3.5). I suppose they do that to make the size of the list manageable. We have hundreds of earthquakes in Alaska every day when you count all the micro-temblors.

    The last one I was in while I was in California was a 6.3 epicentered about 20 miles from my location at the time.

    I woke up under my desk, about six feet from my bed in the dorm room.
