Hi Roger,

I going to "pull the plug" on that nuclear tests project and delete that Web page. After doing some additional reading it appears to me that the subject matter might be too complicated for an easy study.

The main thing to check for could be a link between earthquake magnitudes and the underground tests that might have been most active from perhaps 1962 through 1992 when it looks like the U.S. stopped its nuclear testing program. And if you look at the earthquake data from around the end of 1964 through 1992 there don’t appear to me to be any with a magnitude higher than 8.3. So, it could be that the magnitude limiting effects of the underground nuclear tests shockwaves were actually real.

In any case, it appears to me that it would take too long to try to sort through all of the available data.

These are personal opinions.
