My main present project is still to send a group of earthquake research proposals to various international groups. Two have largely been written. One focuses more on earthquake – solar storm – geomagnetic storm - electromagnetic energy field related health effects.

I am part of the way through a lengthy evaluation of 6 months worth of precursor signals to see how many might have pointed to that recent catastrophic Iran earthquake. Surprisingly, a number of the “Ear Tones” look like they might have pointed to it. And that includes ones sent to me by other people including someone living much closer to Iran.

Quite a bit of effort has been going into finding a better programming language. I have been relying mostly on a Basic program up until now. And it can’t handle all of the data that I need to work with. Perl looks most attractive at the moment. I now have it up and running on my computer. And I have an experimental page at my Web site which discusses that language:

Perhaps you could do a survey and see what people feel might be the ideal text window size. I am going to guess that it would be something like 80 spaces wide. One that wide might fit on everyone’s computer screen and still allow people to enter lengthy Web site addresses without having them wrap.
