I felt that quake as well...

I think the first quake was around 11pm and the other one was around 1.30am.
I didn't feel that first one but I felt the second one when I was watching Barcelona's game...
At least 10 other people as said the same so I can be sure now that it really happened!!!

It was on the local news this morning, a 4.8. One channel said Burma, the other Prachuab.

I got absolutely no sleep last night.

Not a thing for me but my house is built on sand which I believe absorbs most of the shock. I was up until way past the end of the Barcelona game.

Surprised there is no internet service that clarfies such things -- isn't there supposed to be a tsunami warning center that would monitor such things??

You have to give the system a bit of time to get it tracked and listed. It should show up on the charts and on the listing page, but not on the global map chart if not 4.0 or over.

Are you guys sure someone isn't doing some blasting in the surrounding hills to clear for a road, development, any army maneuvers with live shelling going on? Pete
