actually the area of eastern Ontario/western Quebec/northern New York/Vermont etc is the 2nd most active area in North America in terms of earthquakes.
I'm in DC now. People evacuated a lot of buildings and some had falling masonry but nothing to bad. the main problems have just been that it's really fucked up public transport and the gridlock is crazy. cell phone service is also patchy. for the most part not that bad, just annoying.
