How Do We Measure Earthquake Magnitude? | UPSeis
Most scales are based on the amplitude of seismic waves recorded on seismometers. Another scale is based on the physical size of the earthquake fault and the amount of slip that occurred.

Most of mine aren't here either, but the couple I do have are nestled safely in cases behind my desk.

I've got a few hanging on the wall and bed frame. The hangers are the type that have 2 ears that spring down and cover the opening when the weight of the guitar is there. I was in the room when the 7.1 came rolling through. They were swinging about an inch front to back.
Just knew I should not have dimed the new bass amp ....
On the serious side, you CAN be ready for an earthquake. We keep 6 cases of bottled water on hand and we have a good sized metal case with enough dry food to last 2 weeks. This is all kept in the strongest part of the house and easily accessed through a window if necessary. And we have 2 deck boxes outside that have cloths, medical supplies, a tent, portapotty (5 gallon can with a seat) and TP.
Those 2 words from my Boy Scout days have defined much of how I lived.

Not much different than being with a hot chick; you're bouncing and rocking for 30 seconds, and then its all over
