Yes my house cracked in half and all my plates were shooken from the house and strown all over broken into little peices, my bed moved fom one spot in the room to the opposite wall. Very costly, happy to say we are still ok and no one was hurt though.

No; but recently a 4.4, which is harsh enough to clearly feel. That's plenty for me.

mild 3.+ barely noticeable

The one and only time I did experience one was whilst I was staying on the 18th floor of the Cairo Marriott Hotel in 1995. It only lasted perhaps 30 seconds, but that was enough to make me glad I live in a zone that although they do happen, are almost never felt. The epicentre was in Israel, I believe.
-
Never. I felt my bed tremble a little when we had an eathquake in the UK a year or so ago. To ever experience the ground move at all in the UK is quite exceptional!

Yes, Northridge in January, 1994. The magnitude was 6.7.

I live in an area where we don't really get earthquakes, but a few years ago we had a very minor one. If it had happened in an area where earthquakes are common, they wouldn't have felt it.

Yes! I was in Junior High and it took about 3 seconds to register what was happening. I distinctly seeing the floor have waves in it. We did like all students are taught, get under the desk which I feel did nothing for my safety. It lasted about 20-30 seconds and then it stopped. That was the excitement for the week no doubt!

Yes, the Sylmar quake in 1971 was violently shaky at my apt in Santa Monica. The floor rolled like a small boat in rough seas. The Northridge quake in 1994 was very shaky and scared my family in Hermosa Beach. The Whittier quake in 1987 and Landers quake in 1992 all were felt at my home in Hermosa Beach, but not so scary. There were numerous after quakes and small quakes too.
