" December 23, 2010, 03:02:25 pm Two Tenners: Sounds 'the last Post' and Predicts: "Watch December 26th, for either major earthquake, or outbreak of war, if you're unlucky!"

And the suite? Fortunately no injuries, but a series of 3.8 thru ~5 odd Richter aftershocks, linked they claim, to the larger September Quake. That's quite a long time ago .... I would have thought you would classify 3 month delayed 'aftershocks' as A new Quake, but that's what you're up against with Seismology, a "Steep Learning Curve"!

26 December 2010.

You could argue it's Just about seeing patterns, since there have been regular major earthquakes on Dec 26th including 2003 in Iran, The Indonesian Tsunami of 2004 and other eventides.

But having said that, those that recognise my work will know that I accurately (to the day) predicted both the Aquila and Samoan Major Quakes of the last couple years. So there you have it, like it or not.

Anyway, having done all that, I'll leave you to ponder your Turkey entrails and Necks with a view to a kill ....
