I don't think you'd even feel a magnitude 2 quake. Maybe it's different in such a tall building or maybe it was stronger in this area.

There was 2 quakes measured in taipei. The first one was 2, I didn’t feel it, was awake as it occured in the middle of the night and I was taking care of new born. The second was a 3 which I felt! Wife was scared, 4yo daughter didn’t notice it on the bed watching tv.

I know how you feel.
Well you don't know how I feel at all, but thanks for saying that as I think you were either: joking a little bit (a play on words, as in: "You don't know how I feel, please...", "I know how you feel" sympathetic, so it's kind of funny), or also showing support, because you can relate to people being fake and trying to tell you what you can and can't feel, which is total bullshit. When of course nobody else can tell you what you can and can't feel, and to try to do so is an abuse. ;p ;) xx ;p

It was the first.
But, today i learned I can abuse someone by telling them how they feel.. New worlds of opportunity have opened up.
