I asked one of my students (an immigrant from Terceira) about earthquakes. She said she never felt one there! (She came to America a couple of years ago at the age of 11). I thought maybe they were really small and she didn't realize that they were earthquakes. Since I've grown up with earthquakes, I don't always feel them either. I've been teaching and saw half my students dive under the desk, and told them "Ha, ha, good one. Funny prank. Get up now." And they said, "No! No! Didn't you feel that earthquake Miss Mello?" Half my class is looking at the other half like they are crazy and the other half is looking back at them, completely freaked out wondering why they aren't under the desk. I just don't feel the small ones anymore.
