Petra, there is an earthquake forecasting world or group out there which you apparently know nothing about. Nor do any of the other people who post notes here.

This is not a formal group but instead consists of people in different parts of the world who exchange information regarding earthquake forecasting efforts and individual earthquake forecasts. I have been a member of that informal group for years. And for a number of reasons the other people with whom I talk consider my forecasts to be quite valuable.

They would I feel be interested in and could probably make effective use of the earthquake forecasting data which many professional and amateur earthquake forecasters around the world are generating. But in order for them to do that those data would have to be presented to them in a highly organized manner.

For some time I have been posting notes here partly in an effort to get the forecasts etc. which people are posting to this board into some type of organized format so that they could actually be of some use to other people. But just about every attempt that I have made to do that has been met with criticism. Partly as a result of that, regardless of how accurate the forecasts being posted to this board might be, at the moment they are essentially of no use to anyone that I know.

Finally, I am not going to get into a debate with anyone regarding this. I do not have time.

These are my personal opinions.
