Whats an "Phage-off"?
I don't understand why people feel the urge to argue about predictions. I guess it's a haven for proffesional debunkers and the "YOU SHALL NOT PASS" crowd.

As far as I've seen you based your research between the years of 1973-2008. Any updates to that? I'd be highly interested.
in California, never have I remembered such a duration of time with no activity

Should people just accept predictions?....not question them?
I'm not a "professional debunker"......but I'm going to go ahead and debunk your prediction.
No major earthquake within the next 30+ hours, there will be a multitude of minor ones, but no major one.
And I didn't even start a thread to claim it.

The data I used covered three solar maximums.
As you say, during solar maximum solar flare activity increases.
As the data shows, there is no corresponding increase in earthquake activity with the increased solar activity at solar maximum.
As we approach solar maximum people become more susceptible to what I call the shower syndrome. A false connection between events.

In fact, what the OP claims is that magnitude of CME will be in proportion to magnitude of EQ. I am not saying this is right, but let's humor that. That would be akin to maybe saying depth of stabbing may be linked to state of health. The deeper the stabbing, the more likely a death will occur at the same time or soon follow.

Oh, and I do not necessarily think the OP stole this idea. This idea is not trivial, it is inevitable. Any time there is a strong solar flare there is a prediction thread like this one. How does one steal that? Sure, lacks originality and novel thought but I usually chalk that up to a novice.
To be honest, I have not even checked the OPs join date or anything because I really do not care. Last I checked, ATS does not issue ca$h for stars and flags so that is irrelevant. Whether the OP is just wh---ng for attention or not makes no difference. I came in and started posting in this thread because it is the current 'junk' thread to whimsically chat about what could cause such a correlation such that a large EQ will result from this recent X5/X1 double-flare. There is always a thread like this one and it is a great place to have unconventional, outside-the-box, revolutionary - and sometimes just crazy chat. Some of you need to be less afraid of entertaining crazy 'out there' thinking. It does take some discipline to do it right, but it can be fun!
Those that provide valid debunking material are in the clear. That is your role and is much appreciated. It is the ones that blindly dismiss without even trying to entertain the notion that need to take a step back and ask why.edit on 7-3-2012 by nydsdan because: clarification.
