That one was pretty scary. I dropped under my desk very quickly but we have glass walls in our offices, so I was nervous that the shards would cut me to pieces.
Our neighbors came by our house to see if my wife and kids were ok. I thought that was very kind of them.
One thing I learned....in an emergency, cell phones are useless. Circuits were jammed and are still somewhat screwy. I called my house and was routed to some other home. Also, i have received text messages from other people that are intending to send them elsewhere.
