The guv said that the state will be fining water abusers $10K a day. Of
course everyone thought that would be for homes but I think it's for big
users. For homes it's $500 a day. Problem is if people don't have
money to spare (and many don't) then they come and take your stuff or
your house and sell it for the fine. It should be market value as
anything lower is just plain robbery.
Like I say it's beginning to look like a sci-fi movie here.

She was telling me about having to cut back another 25% on water use,
she's pissed of because she was being frugal anyway while the people

She's coming over for a visit next week and yes, it's wet and freezing

How confident would you have to be in a prediction to pack up your
stuff and head for the hills? Have you ever wanted to get out during
a tremor?
My sister lives in California and she hates quakes. She lives right
on a tributary of the San Andreas fault and I tell her it's a dumb
place to live if she's scared of them. The quality of produce from
the local vineyards makes up for it apparently.

Berkland was suspended for a couple months for shooting his mouth
off. His predictions are not too impressive, given the fact that
he often can't say WHERE the quake is going to be. 2009, he
predicted a major earthquake sometime between January 9-14. And a
5.3 quake did occur - on the island of Crete.
Also the fact that he advertises himself and his predictions on
shows like Coast to Coast with Art Bell or George Noory kind of
erodes his credibility.

Former Alameda county geologist Jim Berkland predicted Loma
Prieta and got fired for it. He was basing it on the eclipse and
tidal theories. The earth can bulge as much as 3 feet during
eclipses and high tides. Two decades later Russian researchers
concluded the theory was correct but the problem was knowing
which fault was going to blow.

Morelikely the last eclipse a couple weeks back did some

trying to figure out a way to find which faults are about to blow.
Hmm. If wonder if there's any truth to it? Maybe very high tides
do cause a differential in weight applied across a large area
that is enough to trigger a quake that was waiting to happen.
But if they don't happen every time then it can't really be used
to predict them. Maybe a combination of factors like time since
last quake, or since nearby volcano that might have released a
bit of pressure.
Worth a google around I think.

There's a danger in thinking that two similarly timed events
must be connected. Especially if you don't understand - and
therefore might fear - one of them.
The trouble here is that if we assume earthquakes are caused by
physics experiments connected with some mystical belief about
gods being subatomic structures then we have to start searching
for the trigger event that caused other earthquakes and natural
disasters that happened when there weren't high energy
collisions going on at CERN. This superstitious way of looking
at the world can be dangerous. If you believe, for instance,
that people praying in one place has an effect on the world and
then something bad happens you have to start looking for the
person who wasn't praying enough or properly or who - gasp -
doesn't really believe and make them pay somehow. This is
called scapegoating.
To scapegoat a physics experiment is the same order of
illogical behaviour and, like punishing people who don't pray,
won't ever result in a change in natural circumstances.
Earthquakes are caused by movements in the Earth's crust, the
large continental plates rub against each other because the
Earth is spinning and is geologically active with deep ocean
volcanoes pushing new land up which moves under other plates
causing the sudden jolts we get around edges.
India was an island slowly cruising north where it hit mainland
Asia about 50 million years ago. That collision is what formed
the Himalaya which is the world's biggest mountain range simply
because it is the newest. It's hardly surprising there are
Earthquakes there, it's only the short human life span which
stops us seeing nature in all it's creative power and glory. In
fact, we get screwed over by it relatively infrequently and
historically lacked an explanation and so blamed it on the Gods.
Interesting that people still blame the Gods but they are as
wrong now as they were then, there are no higher energies
created in particle accelerators than are created when charged
particles from the sun and other stars hit the Earth's
atmosphere. And every other place in the universe. Billions of
times a second.
I admire the creativity in linking the subatomic world with
Hindu religion though, I may even post this on Brian Cox's
Facebook page and see what he thinks...
Or maybe John Hagelin. I'd love to see how he squirms out of
it, he's been linking veda and physics for years, this is his
chance to draw line between himself and the growing insanity of
the new age.
Or maybe we should commission a yagya to stop CERN from working?
