Seems like a logical conclusion to me.

There must exist some type of equilibrium between all things and it must constantly adjust.

We think of the world as more or less orderly (the sun rises in the east and sets in the west) but every day brings some type of chaos...Look at the Phillipine Volcano...

Since all things must be connected, I can see their theory as quite possible.

Makes sense to me. A friend of mine is a sexton for many of the local cemetaries and he swears there are predicable tides in the earth. He says the best time to backfill a grave is at “low tide” because he can get more earth back into the hole.

For thousands of years astrologers have claimed that disasters are foretold in the movement of the planets. Now a new study suggests they might be right. Scientists have discovered that the faint gravitational tug of the sun and moon

Neither of which is a planet.

I believe this has been conventional wisdom for decades. When a quake is trembling on the edge, tidal forces are likelly to push it over.

Moving of th’ earth brings harms and fears,
Men reckon what it did and meant,
But trepidation of the spheres,
Though greater far, is innocent.

This is not science. How can it be tested? We cannot remove the remove the presence of the moon and the sun to attempt to falsify this hypothesis. The tidal presence of both are a constant variable that may or may not have a relationship to tectonic movement (probably does) but how do we prove it? At this juncture, it is only a conjecture, perhaps an observation of a correlation.
