Hi EQF. All quakes or almost all quakes are caused by one thing. The ability to overcome the resistance to movement. This is done a number of different ways, but the two main ways is by shearing the object that is keeping the fault from moving at the epicenter of the quake, or for it slip past the object causing the resistance to movement. This is done when enough stress has built up to overcome the obstacle. The only way to prove any method of predicting earthquakes works is to make the prediction before the quakes occur. You do this over and over again until enough people have seen it work. Anyone can take an alignment of the sun and moon and anything else you want to throw in and find a way to make it work after the quakes occur. The trick is to do this before the quakes occur. To date you haven't done that. Everything you have presented to date has been after the fact. This proves nothing. If you want someone to accept your claim of being able to predict earthquakes by using your program you have to do it before the quakes occur. This means you should at the very least give the location of the quake by latitude and longitude, the date and the magnitude. If you can do this with a high degree of consistency then it could be said you have a program that works. Until then you have nothing. Nothing would give me great pleasure then to see you program work. I would love to see an earthquake prediction work before I die. Don't disappoint me. Let me see it work by making your prediction before the quake occurs. Also keep in mind that my time is getting short. Thank You…Don in creepy town
