The quake that rocked the Pacific Ocean off the coastline near the San Diego/Mexico border Friday morning did not cause any significant damage, despite its ferocity, according to reports.
Dubbed the Avalon Earthquake, the temblor struck at 2:36 a.m. about 150 miles off the Baja coast.
According to the U.S. Geological Survey, the quake was felt in towns along each side of the International Border.
At press time, 2,464 respondents in 389 zip codes told the U.S.G.S. they felt the temblor.
As of 8:22 a.m. Friday, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration states there is no tsunami watch, warning or advisory.

OH yes I forgot ..PRAY...that will do the trick. Amen
BTW... The earthquake was Bush's fault.
Oh yeah, why is everything in this world due to politics or politicians you guys? Always strays to there and I hate it cause we get enough politics. I think I need to renew my pot smoking card and go back to bed the rest of the day.
JESUS is DEAD and the GOD I believe in ain't short of cash.
<~~~~Stomping off with tears flowing from the only thing still pretty on the old gal, blue eyes. DANA--I am newly 53 yrs old, and I have to tell you I have heard this story all my life. I have lived through the earthquake that destroyed my house and took it right off the foundation in Whittier '87. I still believe the big one is coming and the good Lord doesnt have anything to do with it. In case you havent read the scientific books a quake of 7+ is enough to flatten a town and a 8+ will totally level every city within 20 miles of that fault line. The Whittier quake nearly did that, given old buildings too, and it was lowered to a 5.7 I think from a 6.3. KB---tossing in my AMEN for GC just cause he is my hero :)~~~
