Sorry, but I hope you see my problem. With her new prediction, my catalogs show that there has only been one magnitude 5.0 or larger earthquake in her space window since 1960. It was a 5.1 on November 11, 1974. I give her about a 0.1% chance of a hit in her 10-day time window. If I double the radius of her circle to 10 miles, there were still only 5 events since 1960 which yields a chance of about 0.3% of a 5.0 or larger in a 10-day period.
