I sure have. I was here for the Northridge quake in 1994 and I was about 4 when we had the Sylmar quake back in 1971.
Fortunately we had relatively minor damage from both. The house was still standing and mostly we just had to clean up all the broken china and jars of food. In the '94 quake we also had some of our block wall around the yard come down and the cracks are still there where it didn't fall. My house was one of the few in the neighborhood where are chimney didn't collapse.
