Hi All. I have been into research of the cause of earthquakes for more then 40 years now and have discovered that earthquakes are not triggered. They occur when they occur, because that is the time for them to occur. In other words the resistance to the movement of the earth has been overcome.

The earth for the most part has a lot of rocks that we can’t see. These rocks are small, medium, big and humungous.

Small rocks cause small earthquakes, because the resistance to movement is small. That is why we have so many small earthquakes. I mean like they occur all over the place.

Medium sized rocks cause moderate earthquakes because the resistance while a little more then a small rock it not as much as a big rock. We have a lot of these also, but not as many as small quakes, because there aren’t as many medium size rocks as there are small rocks.

Big rocks cause big earthquakes because the resistance to movement is much more then a medium sized rock. We don’t have many big earthquakes because we don’t have many big rocks.

We now come to the humungous sized rocks. Now I’m here to tell you these rocks are big. I mean really big. You can’t even begin to imagine how big they are. They offer so much resistance to movement that it takes years and years to overcome. These rocks are the cause of major quakes and in some cases mega-quakes. Fortunately we have few humungous rocks otherwise we would be getting bounced all over the place by major quakes and the sometime mega-quake.

Having solved the problem of why we have earthquakes my next task is to solve the reason why a certain Park Ranger has been struck 7 times by lightning and lived to tell about it. I mean it has to be more then just being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Even dumb luck wouldn’t cause this to occur. What is that lightning seems to be attracted to this man? Could be he has a lot of iron in his system. If that is the case then all he has to do is change his diet. Eating food that has less iron in it may solve the problem as to why he gets whacked all the time by lightning.

Now that I have given my self a headache with all this thinking I’m going to take a couple of aspirin and go back to bed then get up again and see if I can start this day a little different. Take Care…Don, the old problem solver.
