None of my books fell.  Some of my magazine boxes full of loose papers
did, as did a shelf in the bedroom that held loose papers.  The latter
knocked a flat-screen monitor off a cabinet onto the floor.  I haven't
tested it to see if it still works, but I never use it anyway.  The
power did not go off at my apartment or anywhere else that I know of.

My mother is okay.  She was at home, recently returned from a nursing
home for the first time since she fell and broke her hip two months
ago.  She was being visited by a phsical therapist who was having her
walk.  Fortunately, she was sitting down when the earthquake happened,
or she likely would have fallen and broken her other hip.

I'm surprised there are no other posts here about the earthquake.  I
hope the silence doesn't mean all other past and present WSFA members
were killed.  Maybe everyone's still in Reno?
