Earthquake in Beijing - 12th May 2008 2:55PM

I thought I was dizzy, but then I looked up to the lights hanging on the ceiling was swinging. I told my colleague sitting in front of me : "Earthquake!"

Lasted about 1 - 2 minutes, I saw a lot of people outside of my office building here in Beijing, Dongcheng district.

I also heard from my other Chinese colleague that there's also major earthquake in Sichuan province, south of China.

This is the 3rd time I felt the tremor, but I think this is the worse one that I ever felt in Beijing. My building is on top of Beijing subway.
The unusual cold weather and wind also bring some chill in my spine.

Looked at the CNN website 1 minutes ago, and confirmed all the news.
