And so did everyone else who felt the earth move. Earthquakes are the most democratic of history's memorable events. Their story is told, not in the voices of powerful individuals or great institutions, but in the countless memories of everyone who lived to tell their tale. We all have stories, they all have value. As such, the standard tools of the historian don't always apply.
