This came to me from another list and I thought the new folks posting here might find it interesting and going a long way to explain what has been happening to them in becoming EQ sensitive.

Earthquakes:The Solar Connection by Patrick Huyghe
.......
Adam's journey to solar consciousness began a decade ago in a basement
laboratory of the Stanford Medical School, where the young biologist was
conducting a syudy of cardiac stimulents on embryo chick hearts.
Once the study was completed, Adams prepared to present her results to
the American Heart Association, but just a few weeks before she was to do
so, her results reversed themselves. Instead of stimulation, the embryo
chick hearts began exhibiting depression. Assuming the experimental setup
was at fault, Adams dismantled the entire system and changed the platinum
electrodes, the stock solutions and the air tanks. No matter what she
did, she couldn't replicate her results.
Soon after, though, for no apparent reason, the experiment began to
work again........Having taken into account humidity, temperature and all
the other factors that biologists usually control in their experiments,
Adams was left with only one conclusion:"The chick embryo results were a
clue that something in the environment was profoundly influencing biological
processes, but at that time I didn't know where to look for the something."
Adams then began to accumulate other instances of biological
variability. In 11,000 cases of measured surgical bleeding, for example,
she noticed that the measurements of blood loss varied. She screened
these cases against a variety of factors in the geophysical environment:
cosmic radiation, several measures of geomagnetic and solar activity and
a number of standard weather variables such as barometric pressure,
temperature and relative humidity. She found that the bleeding anomalies
occurred following periods of increased solar activity and preceding
large-magnitude earthquakes.
The clinical staff at the Women's Community Clinic in San Jose, where
Adams was then research director, wasn't surprised, she says. "They said
they could have told me that because everything goes haywire around here
a few days before an earthquake. People in the recovery room showed an
increase in emotional disturbances and there was an increase in the
number of people vomiting and reacting to anesthetics. They didn't have to
look at the data to tell when an earthquake was coming. When I challenged
them to predict the next earthquake, they did, and the bleeding data
showed the expected anomalies."
Aware of the fact that certain animals seem to act strangely just
prior to earthquakes, Adams formalized a study that used human subjects
to forecast them. She had moved to her present position at SRI
International, and her only contact with most of the 25 people who are
now participating in the study has been over the telephone......Twice each
day, the 25 "responsives" who reliably exhibit physiological sensations
prior to a quake fill out a chart, noting the presence or absence of such
symptoms as fatigue, vertigo, chills, headaches, nausea, a ringing in the
ears or a flushed sensation. The form also provides spaces for depression
and fights with a spouse or workmates.
Once the symptoms reach a peak of intensity, the responsives call in
on Adams' hot line and give name, date, time of day, the symptom and its
strength. This has allowed her to establish a track record for each
person that tells her how accurate he or she is with regard to large- or
to small-magnitude quakes, to local versus distant quakes and to the
timing of the event........
The list of factors Adams claims may be influenced by increases in solar
activity is a long one and, unbelievable as it may sound, includes not
only earthquakes and periodic human illness but also freak weather
conditions, arson, riots, political instability and crime waves. In fact,
Adams points out, the Falkland Islands were invaded soon after an
increase in solar activity. Railroad derailments and accidents involving
airplanes, buses and ships appear on the list as well. All these events
tend to occur in specific time slots within about a week of increases in
solar activity. Humans normally begin to react within the first few days
after a flare, and the earthquakes in about four days.
Adams has already provided several fire forecasts for Andrew Casper,
chief of the San Francisco fire department, who has been on the track of
an arsonist responsible for more than 30 fires since February of this
year. "She's been right on target," says Casper. "When Adams forecasts,
the arsonist hits within 72 hours. She's got it down."...........
Adams is currently testing the hypothesis that ELF might be the
geophysical variable responsible for triggering all kinds of biological
and seismic processes.......Biologists studying ELF have come up with a
list of symptoms remarkably similar to those Adams' responsives report.
It is known that the frequency of alpha brain waves (8 hertz) has a
geological parallel in what is called the Schumann Resonance, the frequency
at which the length of a radio wave equals the circumference of the Earth.
This piece of information set Adams wondering whether ELF might not also
help directly trigger earthquakes. Although she doesn't claim to know
just how ELF provides the final nudge that brings on the catastrophe, she
does
speculate on two possible mechanisms: piezoelectricity and magnetostriction.
Piezoelectricty is a process by which electromagnetic energy is
converted to mechanical energy or vice versa. It occurs most notably in
crystals, and it is the basis for the quartz watch. The quartz picks up
the electromagnetic signal and converts it to a mechanical vibration that
is then amplified. Perhaps the Earth's crust begins to vibrate through
such an effect, says Adams or through magnetostriction, a process by
which certain magnetic materials change shape when they are subjected to a
magnetic field. When subjected to an oscillating field, such as ELF, a
mechanical motion, or vibration, is produced.....
Adams think that responsives act as biolgical tranducers and are
quicker at absorbing and integrating information than any current
scientific instrument......
Certainly the most eye-opening aspect of Adams' current forecasting
system is the finding that responsives need not be in the vicinity of an
earthquake in order to forecast it. Low-frequency radio waves travel
around the world many times with minimum attenuation because the cavity
between the Earth and the ionosphere acts as a vast natural resonator for
electromagnetic energies of these wavelengths. This effect allows
responsives in one locale to predict quakes anywhere in the world.
