I know, I looked. While you pointed out that Southern CA gets 3's all of the time, even if she has a headache for a 3, its still another headache and another match. To have so many headaches in a given year given 60 or more per year and only miss around 4, then we all know this is far better than any average.

Do you have data to back that up ? Are you saying there were 60 quakes in a year and she called 56 of them ? If that is true then I'm truly impressed and I sure have missed reading things !

Here's a quarterly summary that Caltech posts:


Totals listed below apply to the area within a polygon bounded by
the following latitude, longitude pairs:
35.0N, 121.0W; 37.0N, 119.0W; 37.0N, 115.0W; 32.5N, 115.0W; and
32.5N, 121.0W.
