Hi EQF. Your words. “Any port in the storm.” Use whatever is available. Less than completely reliable warnings are better than no warnings at all. I beg to differ with you. Unreliable warnings are worse then no warnings. To many false warnings and the people will ignore them. When that happens when the time comes that a good one is given no on is going to pay any attention. False warnings can do a lot of harm as it can cost as much if not more then the real thing. To many and you can find you don’t have any money left for when the real one happens, predicted or not. To date you haven’t shown anything that would give me confidence in your ability to predict a quake. You have never shown any proof that you have a program that works and until you do you have nothing. To be perfectly frank with you I don’t think you can predict earthquakes. As you say “that is a personal opinion.” My opinion is based on what I don’t see coming from you and that is proof that you can do as you say you can. If you can’t take the heat then get out of the kitchen. There is nothing you can say or do that will ever convince me you can predict a quake except by making a prediction before the quake occurs. Take Care…Don in creepy town
