Larger Quake Predictions - Board Question
Posted by Petra on January 02, 2005 at 10:04:12:

Hi All,

This question has been buzzing around my head the last week and I thought I'd get some feedback, just in case.

If the time arrives where I and or my group decects a large earthquake may be on the horizon for CA in particular or anywhere on the west coast, would you have a problem with me posting the prediction?

I decided that on any predictions where it seems there may be a problem with a higher end magnitude to issue a disclaimer with it, indicating it is experimental, rather than scientific fact. Hopefully, this would then seem more like a "heads up" than something based on absolutes.

I truly would appreciate your feedback. I'm a little concerned about the day that this happens and I'd rather be prepared for what your reactions might be.

Petra
