There is a redundant thread on this in the SF Forum.

Probably a better place to discuss as I'd imagine people living in Needles or Yreka (among other places ) probably don't give a hoot about a 4.1 on the Calaveras.

No, I didn't. But there was one late last night that I felt.

4.1 at 10:09 6 miles north east of Milpitas.

Coyote, you might have felt the 1.4 at 12:37 AM or the 3 at 11:09 PM 8 miles southeast of Milpitas.

Those were about it for the local area in that time frame

Well, tell that to anyone who has experienced an intense earthquake in CA ... like the loma prieta quake in '89 (for example) ... almost 60 people died and close to 4000 people were injured (some severely) huge property damage ... 40 buildings in just Santa Cruz alone collapsed, 6 billion $ in damage due to the quake, etc., etc., etc..
You can't live in CA and have earthquake fear or you'd go nuts but people care and the potential for a quake is present, even if below the surface of consciousness ... the body knows the earth.
The quake that the o.p. felt was a minor one ... the thread would look a lot different if it had of been a big one.

I was in the shower at that time and felt nothing at all, in south San Jose (Almaden Valley).

I first thought my cats knocked something over, but then my house started to boogie.

Well you can live in the Sierra Foothills and never give earthquakes a second thought.

Give me a good old fashioned wildfire any day.
