Obviously directed towards me. I'm flattered. Although your ad hominems are incorrect.

I did very well in high school physics, thank you very much. I don't have my report card at hand, but I seem to recall an A-. I remember one week - we did one chapter a week - where I dozed off in class, except when we were watching videos. This was the week we were studying the electromagnetic spectrum. Of course, Friday comes along and it's test time. I aced it - 100%. Yeah, the sleeping kid with the army boots and leather jacket that rode a Harley to school got the highest grade that week. Well, the thing was I was already quite familiar with EM stuff as I had an early interest in lasers. BTW, I still have that Harley.

As for learning whether quakes can be predicted, I feel they ultimately can, at least good enough to be useful. Perhaps not unlike weather forecasts. I'm sure some here can corroborate my attitude on that as I know I have stated it numerous times in the past. I'm not sure how folks get this impression that I think quakes can't and never will be ever ever ever predicted.

How can they be predicted? Well, that's an irrelevant question as no method presented to date HAS PROVEN to be able to successfully predict earthquakes in a meaningful way. Of course, that doesn't mean to say that there isn't a method out there already in existence that CAN predict quakes, only that no method HAS PROVEN to be able to do so.

You see Ed, I am even open to the possibility that your work could possibly be useful in this endeavor. The problem is, you have yet to carry out the necessary steps to prove it can. I get the impression from your comments and from others about you that you may have a formal scientific training and/or background. If this is the case, then surely you are aware of what it takes to prove a hypothesis. What puzzles me, then, is why you fail to do so. Either you are ignoring your scientific training, or you never had that training.

You are quite the enigma, 'EQF'/'EDG'/edgrsprj/or-whoever-you-are. You make the claim to have all this knowledge and ability, yet if you really did so then you would have the knowledge to know that what you say here is... not in your best interest towards successfully gaining respect for your hypothesis and efforts.

As I've said, you've got an image problem. I'm not the only one who feels this way. I just happen to be the one shouting it out. (perhaps a little to vehemently, I admit. working on that)
