Earthquake! in Illinois!
Earthquake rattles Tri-State

I woke up to a noise--looked at the clock 4:35--like the wind rattling the window--but it was one of the paintings on the wall rattling against the wall.
-----I thought--oh--tremor---about 20 secs later the whole house shook---
EARTHWAKE!
----it felt like the house moved up and down about 1/4 to 1/2 inch. To me it lasted about 5 seconds on the main 'one'. But the 'rattling' kept up for another 3 minutes.
