What rot. Gravitational force follows the inverse square law. The moon only moves water around, and that’s a damned close planetary body.

Stupidity abounds. The combined mass of Jupiter, Uranus and Mercury is infinitesimal in the larger scheme of things and has a negligible effect on the Earth.
My “mass”, at 290 pounds, has more affect on the Atlantic ocean than those three planets do simply because I am incredibly closer to it.

If this prediction occurs, then I will buy every Freeper a beverage of his or her choice.
The forces exerted by the planets are insignificantly small, because gravitational force obeys the inverse square law. And all the planets’ mass combined is insignificantly small compared to our sun. Our own moon exerts magnitudes more force upon the earth than all the planets combined.

Tidal forces of planetary alignments are insanely minuscule.
However, the moron in question will doubtlessly be proved "correct", because earthquakes happen all the damned time. The earth is very geologically active.

Low center of gravity, huh?

If this prediction occurs, then I will buy every Freeper a beverage of his or her choice.You're looking at this wrong. It is extremely likely that there will be earthquakes of greater than 4.5 mag on any given day. I could make the exact same prediction for my birthday, and would most likely be right.

New age earthquake researcher Frank Hoogerbeets...
... who changed his name years ago... used to be Boogereets... the ridicule was too much, even for a “new age earthquake researcher”...

His name is Hoogerbeets? I love it! Sounds like a Dr. Seuss character!
To: 11th_VA
because of two planetary alignments, one of which is Jupiter-Mercury-Uranus... Let me guess... clear emphasis on that last one.

The moon only moves water around, and that’s a damned close planetary body.The Moon's possible gravitational effects on land movements is far more plausible than that of any planet. Its effects on ocean water could conceivably play at least a very minor role in plate tectonics. Pound for pound, water is very heavy stuff, and its shifting around could potentially have an (minor) impact on the seafloor around subduction zones and seafloor spreading centers.

When the moon is in the Seventh House, and Jupiter aligns with Mars; then peace will guide the planets and love will steer the stars...

To: zeugma
Yep, I did think of that. However, an earthquake of greater than 7 magnitude is over 300 times more powerful than a 4.5 earthquake. Unlikely, and fairly rare. I'm willing to take the challenge chance! LOL.
To: ETL
Exactly. But this moe-Ron is saying Jupiter, Venus, Mercury, Mars .... makes the earth move. What a macaca.
