Dumbest Prediction of the Day
So I hear a teaser about an upcoming news story. Seems scientists have finally been able to make a scientific prediction about the next earthquake in California.
Imagine my disappointment when I heard this (and I am paraphrasing): Quote:
Wow: they really went out on a limb on this one. This is almost like predicting that Britney Spears will appear in a news story sometime before Christmas. :rolleyes: One story on the subject. |
Animals are good at predicting earthquakes, at least on a short-term basis. Before Northridge, the mice in my s-i-l's walls were going crazy. Dogs and cats run away from home I'm told. Haven't had a major quake since we've been in this house and had pets. They haven't reacted before any of the minor ones we've had.

I predict that I will take a crap some time within the next 72 hours. I R cutting edge science person! Thingy!
|
I predict I will take a nap sometime within the next hour.

I’m almost hoping for a good shaker soon so that our obnoxious white trash neighbors will get all panicky and flee back to Tennessee.

They've been having a strange swarm of earthquakes in Oregon that have scientists kind of baffled- i couldn't help but wonder if maybe the whole Pacific Rim is acting up. I'm thinking odds are very good that you'll be rid of your neighbors a lot sooner than 30 years, JW.

And my building was built in 1952, so who knows on that end either how it'll hold up in a quake. I hope I'm outside when it happens. |
mine was built originally in 1908 (and expanded many times since then). my only hope is if it survived that many already, whats one more?

The straw that broke the camel's back?
