Perhaps...but this island is fairly large, I suppose I had better find
out what our co-ordinates are! We did not feel a thing, but I recall
another one a few years ago, about the same, and the only way we knew
was when one of my tenants on the 10th floor, who was watching his
tropical fish(he did not say what they were doing)said that the water in
the tank sloshed around, but did not come over the side, abd no one else
in the building felt it.This building is over 110 ft high, and when they
were putting the footings in, they were forced to go down 45 ft., which
broke  the contractor, and my principals bought the building from the
receiver in bankruptcy...that was 20 years ago, and we start our 17th
year here in May/ 01. How far did you ride around it on your bike away
back then, Dave? Cheers, Doug in Nanaimo
