Actually, earthquakes do follow patterns and do happen somewhat in succession. I have no idea if the order described in the pacific ring is one of them, but earthquakes do follow along in a series, essentially as one happens, it stresses the next, which gives way, and stresses the next, and so on. They have a difficult time providing a time line, but they definitely can estimate the next region that a quake will strike.

The predictions I saw however, were more in a straight line than around in a circle however, and I believe they were focusing on asia-europe-scandinavia. It was kind of a break through discovery, except again that without a time-line, its pretty hard to make any decisions.

Do you think that the news coverage was a bit too hyped up? Or perhaps misleading? (In the sense that something seemingly scary, could be easily undermined by interjecting a simple fact of the huge uncertainty of prediction X).

And, if so, is such a method really unavoidable? It seems to provide higher viewer ratings compared to being cool-headed and more rational than playing on emotions.

Oh, Im sorry, I think perhaps you misunderstood. I only meant that the next earthquake regions can be loosely estimated, but with little idea of a time table. I had actually discounted that interview for the most part though. That was also the first time I saw fox news, on anything other than Colbert or Stewart, in a very long time.

The thing is with earthquakes, you never really do know when they are coming, only that they are, and while yesterday seems to have gone by without a problem, unfortunately, there always is tomorrow.

Besides, wasnt it you in the thread about the Japanese that said you didnt have sympathy for them because they chose to live in a low lying area in a earthquake zone. I wouldnt think youd care what happens to Californians similarly.

It's their fault for living there...the fish, that is. Fucking magnets.

Finally got to see the video, and ... well, the guy was obviously wrong. The date came and went without any incident.. and his theories about the ring, etc just disagree with accepted scientific information.

Even regaring the animal signs he is a bit off. It is true that Natural signs exist, that many scientists are biased against them (they are "soft" and hard to prove empirically) Still, we ignore natural signs to our perile. I have heard that in the Indonesian incident, for example, the "floating people" (do not know their real name) ALL escaped, because they could read the signs and knew something big was coming based on their tribal stories.

I myself saw it happen in a northern California quake. Well-trained horses simply would not settle down, etc, etc. In retrospect, the signs were obvious, but we are no longer "tuned in" to them, just note them after the fact as "curiosities."

If there's anything I've learned from movies, it's that you ALWAYS watch the animals. They are your first sign something is going to happen. If things seem off, start preparing yourself for what may happen.

That and the kids....if they start gazing at the TV and talking to it....get the f@#$ out!!!!

I assume after this gem, thats you dancing on their graves.

I don't really sympathize with this whole situation.

[concerning Japan disaster]I don't really sympathize with this whole situation.I flip on the news and from word of mouth, people indirectly tell me to feel bad about it. But I won't. I can empathize with them (of course, my emotional understanding is limited. I mean, the worst I felt was from Hurricane Katrina which killed a few acquaintances, financially ruined the lives of a couple good friends, and damage my family's house which was fully covered by the insurance).

But really, if one chooses to live near an earthquake and tsunami prone area, then they should be expected to deal with the potential consequences of their own decisions. Sure, there's the "limitations" of choice, but really it's what people value. Obviously, those who continue to live in areas that are prone to natural disasters (like New Orleans) do so because they value living in such an environment more so than living somewhere else. So, it's still their choice to live there.

How does that make you feel?

Fucking magnets.

How the f*ck do those work?

not much of a prediction since there's an earthquake somewhere in california... EVERY DAY!

[PLAYER57832]

Fucking magnets.

How the f*ck do those work?

For animals, they assist in migration, because the earth is magnetized. They have done experiments where they placed magnets or devices that block/distort magnets on birds and found that they have a harder time navigating, perhaps impossible.

There are other ways they might work, but that is the main bit.

He may have been off in some areas, but he got a few things right about human behavior.
