being careful is not for me

Hello Petra,
Being careful about how you post predictions is not for me...I'm not going to evaluate your predictions.....and spending time on this page is pretty much a hobby for me. I'll just get an impression from your predictions as they are made and the quake(s) do or do not happen...so the vagueness of your original prediction areas are not a problem for me. But, you want to be taken seriously by scientists, you would pretty much have to have a series or predictions evalated by Roger, and if very successful, Roger would have to have someone look into this, or John would have to pick it up, or you would have to go directly to an instrument person/physicist with Roger's evaluation to give you credibility. In a way, Don muddied your Mexico prediction because he changed the minimum magnitude, and gave it a location....you need to make your own changes. Put yourself in some busy research physicist's shoes...someone who works with earthquakes (I'm talking about a professional research scientist). You think they are going to turn the whole focus of their research because you and some other amateurs say you can predict earthquakes from sounds in your ears? There are tons of people out there who think they can predict earthquakes...probably most of these cannot. You have managed to build enough credibility with me that I at least pay attention to your predictions....which I maybe did not at first.
Chris
