Hello Don,

You said: "The problem I have with that is you are spreading pseudoscience. The world has enough of that already."

As you know, all science is pseudoscience until theory is proven. My Seismic Sounds Theory has yet to have the full measure of testing to determine if it is indeed fact.

However, let us examine fact that supports the theory. When breaking rocks in a laboratory, scientists determined the action causes the rock to emit an electrical discharge. Mind you, that's one single small sized rock in a lab. So, out in the field, on an actual fault, we have large asperities breaking and in that, they are emitting a large electrical discharge. Is it not so far afield to imagine, that some human beings can hear this electrical discharge?

If it were so far out, why would scientists in the Mammoth Lakes area have placed a microphone in an (undisclosed area) to listen to sounds coming up from the caldera? So, I must not be to far out, or they are as far out as I am.

Let us imagine a day, when very sensitive microphones were placed on an active fault system and they were monitored for proof of this theory. That's my goal. Real field study.

Let us remember, that theory evolves from observation. That's how Jim Berkland developed his Syzygy Theory, Max Wyss noticed Seismic Gaps and so forth. I'm in the beginning stages and not papered yet.

Thanks for your opinion, always glad to hear another point of view.

Petra
