First?
As in the one before the one before the last largest one?

Because the last biggish one was the third by my count.

Everyone is losing their cool. Can't stop it, just gotta roll with the punches. I seem to have a lasting calm.
Then again, I'm lucky in that we have not sustained damage yet.

Should. But meh.

ah fuckit.
5.4




AND A FOURTH BOOM!
Less than the others, by a fair bit. Monitor didn't even sway, just the floor doing fast pressups.

I don't feel the 3's (never did), most of the 4's 'oh another' material.
The upper 4's make me pause a sec and the 5's make me take heed a bit though.
