Subject: Unusual signal on Northern Cal. Seismometers

Hello All, especially those of you in Northern California.  The alarm went
off on my system a few minutes ago, and the signal on the screen was very
unusual.  It was a decent sized sine wave, about 20 second period.  I
thought it might be local, caused by heavy construction on 101 nearby, but
most of the Berkeley network instruments at
http://www.ncedc.org/bdsn/quicklook.html
   show the same thing.
To my eye, this doesn't look like a normal EQ signal.  Or is it just me?
 
The signal is still ringing down, after a good 25 minutes.
 
What do you all think?
 
Cheers,
