Portland Oregon TV news interviewed a geologist today and asked the question of connectivity between recent quakes, Chile, Mt Hood, N. CA offshore. The geologists reply was seismology studies did not see any connection. My thought was well this wouldn’t be the first time scientists got something wrong.
I read the other day that for the past several decades (maybe a century) the Ring of Fire around the Pacific has been abnormally quiet. Maybe we are reverting to the normal behavior.
Yeah I know.....They said the same thing a couple years ago.
Everyone would like to be able to predict quakes, but there is so much information that you would need to do that and I don’t think they are even close. Even if you had everything, I think it would be difficult.
As for science, I give you the total refusal to look at the big yellow hot thing in the sky and then claim the planets weather is due to CO2 buildup..
