I've dealt with a number of individuals who think quakes are related to the sun-moon angle, among them Amit Dave, Jim Berkland and EDG.
I propose a simple test of this idea.
I will determine the sun-moon angle for every mag 6+ quake in the NEIC catalog and sort them by 5 degree blocks from 0 to 180 degrees.
If there is such a relation, there should be more quakes at certain angles. 0, 90 and 180 are most commonly suggested.
If not, the idea is refuted.
Any comments?
