Earthquakes happen all the time. If this really is a foreshock, I'll be a believer, but my bet is that this was an isolated event and there won't be anything bigger in that area in the coming few days. After shocks are to be expected, but we shall see.
No one is saying they only happen every 188 days. That isn't the observation.
The observation is that they happen every 188 days. And that seems to be correct.
I thought with the leap year it's 188 days from Sep 15th to 20th March.
