I had just flown out of SFO back to the Boston area the day before. I don't remember when I first heard of it, but I do remember what my brother said about it. He was home that day, I think he was living in Lexington at the time. He ran out of his ground floor aparment waited for the ground to stop rolling.
The next day, he was back at work in downtown SF, and had to go to the areas built on landfill to assess the damage. I remember him saying that it was really bad. When I was out there a few years later, I remember talking to firefighters who were working on the section of freeway overpass that had collapsed on a section of freeway below it.
