Edd said he was awakened at 5:08 AM yesterday by a tremor in Cuenca, the biggest he has felt in his time in Cuenca. He said it is the fifth he has experienced, and he is out of town often. I wonder how frequently this happens and is it like being in LA or SF, just part of normal life? The only time I experienced such an event I was in the balcony listening to the Reading Symphony Orchestra when the building shook and the orchestra stopped playing and started over. I left immediately, read about it in the newspaper the next day.

Hi! How often are earthquakes in Cuenca? I did not know it was like in California. Was that just a comment or are they really that often?
