John, I welcome your skepticism, as I am used to it. Though I admitted in a follow up post that I was off on the location (Northern, instead of Central California), I was pretty close as to the magnitude, and dead on with the date that has plagued me for some time.

In actuality, by my posting, I am convinced that the proof lies in my prediction---I am not a scientist---and I respect your knowledge. It seems all others here do as well.

In truth, I've never read or heard an exact, precise prediction (though I'm sure there have been, scientific or otherwise), and as earlier noted, a respected scientist in the field predicted the Sept. 5 event and was incorrect.

I am educated enough to understand that there is no science involved in my predictions. I have very little education in the ways of complexities of the ground we walk upon.

I've shared my posted prediction and follow up posts with those that know me.
As I said in earlier post, I have a non-scientific history of premonitions and predictions---all which has been received with skepticism, doubt, and when I am correct, surprise. My friends are still having their jaw dropping moments when my predictions are realized by the actual event, and what I've shared that I've felt about it.

We may never know why there are many people like me.

I don't understand the theory of eartones, but had realized by reading about them that I too have experienced this. I had no clue what it might mean. Perhaps there is something to it, perhaps not.

It appears that my prediction was too vague to be taken seriously, but as a few people have told me personally, 'hey, I didn't hear of anyone, scientist or otherwise predict a California quake for September 28, 2004 at a M6+'. I may have been vauge about the location, I admit. What I did predict with some accuracy seemed to be close enough for them to understand that my feelings are real and are not be dismissed.

Of course, I would expect my friends to support me in these times when I have these feelings. It's a lonely place.

As I mentioned earlier, I will continue to visit here, read your posts and learn. I'm not looking for kudos, however even the smallest acknowledgement seems to be good for my mental health!

Now, off to the shrink for me!
Thanks for your comments.
Best,
Tim
