Science at work.
That's what this is.
An observation was made. Earthquakes appear to closely correlate with Elenin alignments with the earth and the sun. This is a fact.
A hypothesis is made. Elenin is causing earthquakes when it lines up with the earth and the sun at the same time.
An experiment is conducted to prove or disprove the hypothesis. Predict an earthquake to occur during the next alignment. This is very similar to how Einstein's General Relativity Theory was tested. We wait for an astronomical alignment, observe the outcome, and determine if the data supports the hypothesis.

The beauty of an "unnecessary hypothesis," is that if you find and deem it unnecessary you have the option to not participate in said experiment and ignore it.

Awesome, another self-righteous thread calling out beleivers and saying they are wrong before the time of the prediction passes.
Grats on your fail.
Edit: To the poster above me - that was hilarious and true. Thanks

The hypothesis doesn't say ALL earthquakes are caused by cosmic alignments. The alignments that you speak of is the alignment of the center of all the objects. The hypothesis does not state that an earthquake will occur when the center of the earth aligns with the center of the sun and the center of Elenin, does it?
The alignments are not off by much. The EQ that are part of this theory are the three mentioned, Chile, Christschurch, and Japan. An 8 occurs about once a year, a 9, once every 10 years. For you to say these fall within normal parameters just goes to show us that we shouldn't even bother reading what your post.
I also wonder why you refuse to realize the correlation, but instead post wrong information trying to disprove an "unnecessary hypothesis."

Please demonstrate the correlations. I've already checked and I have seen that the quakes were many days off from the so-called alignments.
Looks like three days for Japan.
Do EM ropes move in straight lines? The EM ropes on the sun do not.
We just need to wait. There is no sense is arguing these points now. Let's just wait and see.
No EQ, no correlation and all this hype will be unfounded; but if an EQ hits, its going to sting that ego of yours.

Seriously, the term Deny Ignorance is design by this sight for people like YOU.
First: Get your facts straight if you are going to use other sites to make a point. Because if you had bothered to check it out for real, you would of noticed that the true Elenin alignment is not until the 27th. and it is at least according to jpl Mars,Sun, Elenin and Earth. A true alignment. You might also want to get over it, because people are already posting quakes and blackout all over this site and others.
Pick your battles, only after you have all the facts. This post is an epic fail.

It was 5 days for Japan.

Irrelevant.

Actually it is. Your so-called hypothesis based on false ideas such as previous alignments does not define what is meant by an alignment or a definition of the event you would consider a hit.
No EQ, no correlation and all this hype will be unfounded; but if an EQ hits, its going to sting that ego of yours.
Since you have not defined what you are using for alignment and have not defined what an acceptable event is there is no test.
There is a 38% chance of picking a date within 5 days of a 7 or larger quake using random selection. For a window of 8 days the chance is 52%.
Now if we drop the quake level down to the 6.3 of Christ's Church the odds are much better. The odds just to an 80% chance of picking within a window of 2 days of an event of that size. That is just random chance.
So how are you going to distinguish any event from a random coincidence?

Well it WAS only a theory.
Theories are not put forward as facts.
It was a theory in the sense of a wild eyed, unevidenced claim with no chance of being right.
It was not a theory as used by scientists. In science theories are used to explain facts.
Here there were no facts.
