Hi Mary C.

The rules are generally designed not to prevent predictions, but to make the contest
more fun. Feel free, if you have an intuition or sensitivity regarding a future earthquake
to post your prediction, contest or not... and if it happens to occur during a contest
period, you too could be a winner.

It is not our intention to inhibit those who are earthquake sensitives, but to add
a bit of fun to the process and maybe learn something about earthquakes in the
process. After all, who would have known of the swarm in the northeast if Cathryn
hadn't intuited a prediction for that area? (at least who on this board).

By the way, nice call on that one, Cathryn. But Don is still breathing hot on your
neck - second place for him again.
