Off Topic


An earthquake is reported to have hit the Virginia / Washington D.C. area just before 2 p.m.and reports of feeling the tremors are coming in from areas near Hartford. Extent of damage and more details are not yet known. Have any Eye readers felt anything around Middletown or have any experiences to share about this?

    I saw a big crowd of workers standing on the plaza in front of Middle Oak today at 2 pm -- seems like a likely building to have experienced a tremor.
