Earthquakes Are Not Triggered

Hi All. Earthquakes aren’t triggered by anything. The rock that is keeping everything from moving at a given location can’t resist anymore so it shears. The smaller the rock the smaller the quake. The bigger the cock bigger the quake. It’s sort of like a blowout with a tire. Nothing triggers the blowout except the pressure inside the tire gets to great for the tire to hold the air in so it blows at the weakest point.

There are some people who can hear that rock in the last stages of trying to resist movement. You might say its drawing it last breath. A death rattle so to speak. They don’t hear the trigger of the quake, but the beginning of the quake.

That should the settle the argument about the causes of earthquakes, but somehow I don’t think it will. There will always be those who claim quakes are triggered and then claim they know what triggers the quake so they can claim they can predict earthquakes. Take Care…Don in creepy town
