I used to live in Southern California close to the San Andreas fault. Earthquakes were so common there a 3.1 probably wouldn't even get anyone's attention. I was at work close to the 1987 Whittier quake, now that was a nasty one. I can understand someone not used to them wondering what the hell is happening.
