Yes..well consider this possibility. Back in the early 1990's when Dennis and I were both predicting on ca.earthquakes, one or two of the times we both agreed and the Q was a noshow. Do not remember who posted first in those cases?!Dennis was always much more accurate BTW...at lease at that time....Now he is in hiatus-mode for a while but methinks he is lurking somewhere on the peri!
