I just heard and felt a sharp thud (P-wave?) and a few seconds later the house shook (S-waves?). If it was an EQ it was like I've never felt before. May the mountains be ever so higher if so. If an impact are we going extinct?
I'd better check the USGS site:

There was a pretty good jolt centered in SB at 7:49PM, followed by a lesser one an hour later.
The info below is from the Wunderground.com site.

I live five miles from San Bernadino in Rialto and got all shook up.
Some things fell off the shelf. More in the following thread. My post is the nineth on page 3.
