At the time, he was fueling his car, and when he looked up at the roof above the pumps (supported by iron girders, no less) he saw it "swaying in the oddly strong wind". It wasn't until he arrived at his office and noticed his co-workers scrambling around replacing manuals on their shelves that he realized what had happened.

I was also short-shrifted by the experience-- it must have happened while walking around the restaurant, so any associated noise I would have attributed to things being moved around back in the kitchen, but in any case I don't have any conscious memory of experiencing anything earthquake-like. Sigh... Mike, you’re not alone.
