Earthquake in LA: Learn about this natural disaster!

Last night, a mini earthquake hit LA; "measuring 4.7 on the Richter scale this morning, shattering glass, setting off alarms and fraying nerves." http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1183964/Los-Angeles-shaken-stirred-mini-earthquake.html
