Earthquake guy...

96  2016-11-21 by K6gsxr

Wasn't there a guy that said an earth quake was going to happen in California in the next couple days? Due to like astronomical solar wind and shit? Looks like a 7.2 hit Tokyo.... close enough to cali and semi correct ya??Anyone have a link to his account slash post. I want to see what he has to say in regards to being pretty accurate in his prediction.

He mentioned Japan as a potential spot also.

Thank you!

Is Japan on the same fault line as New Zealand? If so, that would be why.

It's the ring of fire.

I could literally say "there will be an earthquake on the ring of fire" everyday, and I'd never be wrong. Ever.

You wouldn't be able to say there'd be one 7.0 or above

No but drop it to 5 and you would.

Also. He was off by a bit. When you look at it, sure he was off by 0.2 which doesn't seem like much, until you realize that a 7.5 earthquake has twice as much energy as a 7.3

I mean it's closer than if he had predicted a 5

yea but he did it by looking at the fucking sun

And? It's the ring of fire, the most tectonically active place in the world. It's not a wild prediction to think there will be an earthquake, AND he was off by magnitude and time. He said it would happen within 48 hours of his prediction, as in 48 hours or less. Not around 48 hours....he said within 2 days. He was wrong

Ok so predict one with the same margin of error as his.

Ah now you ask for a margin of error similar to OPs. I will not do that since I don't know enough about geophysics to make that assessment. But as someone that is trying to obtain a degree in earth Science, I can say that OPs prediction was not correct. In science, we would reject that hypothesis. That's not to say OP doesn't know what he's talking about but one prediction that was not right does not mean OP does know what he's talking about.

Thanks for some sanity on this topic!

I'm trying lol its hard in this sub

Hahaha this reads like you are a very sad person.

I don't think people realize how big of a difference there is between two points (like .5 and .6) on the Richter scale

Edit: or what scale we use

Logarithmic scales ftw

Moment magnitude replaced Richter in the 1970s

I saw the thread too. I didn't save it.

The other thing guys, if you go here: http://ds.iris.edu/seismon/ is the lack of earthquakes in the california bay, they have been growing, no tension has been released recently, this is a bad scenario.

BPEarthWatch on youtube covers things of this nature regularly.

I enjoy his videos on the LHC and the magnetosphere.

Plus his voice is calming and the type he could get a second gig doing audio books that have a "moral of the story" nature.

There is still another super moon December 14th so there will probably be some more earthquakes coming up as well

close enough to cali

Haha yeah it's only off 5300 miles. It's like right there! He's practically Nostradamus.

Jesus Christ.

Read the post. He said Japan was a possible target and it would be 7.0+.

He was also late by 3 days.

It's the ring of fire. Predicting an earthquake to occur there is like predicting the sun will rise in the east....if it doesn't happen, you know something is fucked.

You're right. It's obviously a guy predicting the future or having insider knowledge of some kind of devious weather and/or tectonics control device. There's definitely some kind of spooky conspiracy going on here.

He said he looked at where tension usually happens and such, along with watching the sun.

Prais the Sun

Staring at the sun sounds par for the course for these types.

you should read the original post if you havent

Japan is one of the most seismically active place in the entire world. It's like predicting there will be a tornado in the Midwest. Good job, you've stated the obvious. Obviously OP tried to be a bit more precise but he was wrong. I'm not saying OP is an idiot, he may be on to something given the circumstances, but one time of OP being days off and at least half as powerful does not mean OP predicted it.

Whoa. You mean to tell me someone "predicted" an earthquake in California? Color me shocked!

If you didn't read his post, don't comment. He was predicting a larger earthquake, not one of the smaller ones that happen all the time. This is peoples jobs/livelihood and using actual science to predict earthquakes...

He predicted 7.5 or above...it was 6.9

He predicted it would happen within 2 days, it happened 5 days later.

He predicted it would happen in three of the most active earthquake zones on the planet, Japan, Alaska, California.

Come'on...let's be real here.

Wow I mean you must have more knowledge about earthquakes and watching the sun then. It's called science and there is trial and error phase when you are perfecting your craft.

But what the hell do I know write this person off as nothing, because apparently you don't watch these earthquake predicting guys...

From his original post,

"When solar winds rapidly drop I believe that the energy from the sun hibernates inside the planet; Call it geomagnetic harmonic resonances. That energy I "feel" is eventually brought back up to the surface when the solar wind speed stabilizes."

Does that sound scientific to you? What energy is he 'feeling'? WTF is 'geomagnetic harmonic resonances"??? That's new age Mumbo Jumbo my friend...pure and simple!

New age mumbo would be some spiritual shit. Do you follow Suspicious Observers or anything else like that? He's just trying to figure out his theories, as others are in the same field.

You have to have a "feeling" to get off your ass and start doing something no? He put himself out there as a warning, not to be a shill. Do thou what will, I guess...

It's great to be interested in something and dedicate lots of time to learn about it. What isn't great is to pass off work you do as 'scientific' and provide absolutely nothing that passes as scientific evidence.

The truth is I believe people have senses science doesn't understand yet. However if you are claiming that then fine, own it and say how it works for you. But when you start reading 'harmonic' and 'resonance' and 'geomagnetic' it's obvious we've slipped into BS Land.

Harmonic Resonance: is an extraordinarily diverse and varied phenomenon seen in countless forms throughout the universe, from gravitational orbital resonances, to electromagnetic oscillations, to acoustical vibrations in solids, liquids, and gases, to laser resonance in light and microwaves.

I guess your BS land isn't any where near reality like the one where Harmonic Resonance is an actual thing.
