Hi Roger,

While you are going to do a proper evaluation, today's quake off the Coast of Northern, CA is a proper match for the following prediction. Please note this is not connected with any contests on the board and it was solely based on an ear tone. While it misses being considered a "true hit" it does say a lot about ear tone accuracy. It needs some work, but I still say to hear one single sound and to be able to get this close in my mind is not so bad after all....Petra

Hi All,
