I was living about a mile from the epicenter and asleep (as were most others) at the onset of the Northridge 'quake. I was awake immediately and while my wife was groggily asking WTF, there was never a question in my mind what was happening.
I was in a king size waterbed and literally could not get out of that bed until the first rollers were done with us.
