Puerto Rico two quakes, 6.4 followed closely by a 5.6.

If a 6.4 doesn't qualify as breaking news, what does?

All this excitement and I forgot to ping the PR list. It's been on breaking news all day but just in case, here you go.

Puerto Rico Ping! Please Freepmail me if you want on or off the list.

Rezamos por todos ustedes!

This worse than a hurricane - at least you expect a hurricane for a couple of days. My friend Belén fell off of her bed this morning - and she’s in Guaynabo!

All the Best, CLL!

They have to figure out how to spin it so that: 1) It’s President Trump’s fault

Wait until the MSM finds out that the US Marines entered through Guánica (the most affected town) in 1898 during the Spanish-American War to invade & take Puerto Rico away from Spain. They'll start with the "Imperialism" chant.

My son and family live just south of San Juan, do most PR earthquakes happen on the south coast, or do they sometimes hit San Juan hard? Is there a pattern? I plan to try to phone my son in a few hours and will report back. I, too, fear these might be foreshocks. I was in the 7.5 in Mexico City in 1957. We didn’t have noticable foreshocks, but we did have a lot of mild aftershocks.

Has anyone thought to blame Trump’s racism yet?

THINGS TO COME AND WHAT TO EXPECT

I have been researching this subject for the past twenty plus years and all started with a brief article in the Smithsonian what caught my attention. It was in regards to the Vatican building an observatory on Mount Graham in Arizona. At the time there were plenty of lawsuits in regards to clergy engaging in pedophilia and no doubt that financial settlements were for breathtaking amounts and money must have been flowing out like water. And yes I am aware that the Vatican is not poor and far from being broke, still money is money and a mil her and a mil there and before long it amounts to a tidy sum.

Yet the Vatican still thought it was essential to build this observatory, and it is a good one. Amongst the two telescopes is one primarily responding to infra red radiation (heat). Possibly for the detection of a celestial object which never accumulated enough critical mass to fully ignite and become a star, yet big enough to cause problems and interference should it enter our solar system.

Not only that, but the Vatican also had to overcome environmental objections as this area is also considered to be sacred grounds by Indian tribes. To make a long story short, my question was what were they looking for? And over time I found out many interesting tings. Along the line I also corresponded with Zecharia Sitchin who was gracious and kind enough to give me his time of day to answer various questions I had in regards to this subject. He is a world renowned author of the Earth Chronicles, which also have been translated into Braille. He is able to read and understand several ancient languages amongst it Cuneiform as well as Hieroglyphics. What of course enabled him to analyze, decipher and read some of the ancient text’s with some dating back prior to the Deluge.

Over time and putting things together I came up with some conclusions as spelled out in this brief article of mine which I thought perhaps you may find interesting.

Another interesting thing I happen to come across more recently was an excerpt from one of Velikovsky’s books in reference to the 3600 Signature cycle, what pretty well mirrored what I thought all along but took me the better part of twenty years to find out. In any event I thought you may find it interesting what I believe is behind some of these strange events we have been encountering over the last few years.

As far as the increased earthquake activity is concerned, no doubt that some of it is contributable to the more recent Grand Solar Minimum we are now running into, but this increased activity had its beginning even before the onset of the GSM. So what is the trigger? Is it the cyclical, repetitive 3600 year event which not only triggers earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, but at least in this instance may also have been instrumental in producing the new and latest Grand Solar Minimum how so?

There is a delicate balance amongst the planets within our solar system due to their gravitational and electrical forces as each of them carries substantial electrical charges, Any celestial object of reasonable size entering our solar system will also carry an electrical charge and in turn will cause a ripple effect amongst all other planets, and the sun is no exception. In this instance the sun reacted by shutting down all solar spot activity. In the past Grand Solar Minimums may have been triggered by other causes, but in this case it makes just too much sense that this 3600 year cyclical event not only triggers quakes and volcanic eruptions on planet earth but also interacted with the sun causing a diminished amount of activity, which does not bode well for planet earth, for reasons given in the next paragraph.

There are several research papers which more or less state that a high state of solar activity produces a shielding effect against incoming cosmic radiation. When this shielding effect is lost due to a GSM more cosmic radiation is able to penetrate earth which in turn acts as a trigger mechanism for earth quakes as well as volcanic eruptions. The conclusion or point being here is that the 3600 year cyclical event has the ability all of its own to trigger quakes etc. But to top it off by also affecting the sun, triggering a GMS which in turn reduces the shielding effect against cosmic radiation may cause both events the GSM as well as the 3600 Cycle to work in unison to produce destructive quakes and volcanic eruption.

THINGS TO COME

Not that it matters one way or another what I believe or think; but I do believe that we are already several years in to another anniversary of a repetitive event which about 1500 - 1600 BC or about 3600 years ago, give or take, amongst many other things triggered the (TEN PLAGUES) as well as the explosion of Thera, located within the Archipelago of Santorini and at the same time rearranged the Mediterranean landscape permanently. Indirectly and in a roundabout way, turning days in to night for some time, and providing the final straw, scaring the Egyptian ruler at the time, most likely Thutmose III not only giving him an Excedrin headache but also convincing him that it would be a good idea to release the Israelites from bondage. This event entered the annals of history as the EXODUS.

Along here it may be of interest to note that the TEN PLAGUES were not events just made to order for good old Moses, as similar events occurring at the same time; of course of somewhat different nature bedeviled the ancient Chinese as well. What became evident by searching some of the ancient records within the same timeframe, what clearly points out that what was taking place at the time was not just localized, but affected the whole planet. The interesting part is that the Jews being pretty sharp by nature, especially one in particular, MOSES, utilized these events to threaten the Egyptian ruler with and by doing so eventually gained the release of all the Israelis from bondage.

Going back in history using the same time span or multiples of 3600 we arrive at another historic event, which was predictable yet unavoidable and once again it entered the annals of history as the DELUGE. In other words these events seem to have a common denominator or trigger and once again it seems we are running into another one and probably are already at the beginning of it causing all kinds of strange weather patterns along with what humans refer to as “Global warming” etc. but the finale is yet to come.

I have a feeling that the Vatican may be thinking along similar lines and in order to get ahead of the proverbial curve, a while back built a fairly sophisticated observatory on Mount Graham in Arizona. Actually about 25 years ago when I found out about this project it made me wonder as to what are they really looking for? And as I looked into this subject a little closer, much to my surprise, many interesting things turned up. To anyone who never has looked into this subject, given it much thought or let religious believes get in their way, all this may sound like some crackpot idea. But whatever has been taking place so far in regards unusual weather patterns, more frequent earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, flooding, draughts as well as unusual levels of heat, producing hard to control fires as well as seasons running into one another etc. speaks pretty well for the re-occurrence of this repetitive event.

There are plenty of news accounts for his taking place around the world all it takes is for a person to look for it, as it appears to be validating this repetitive event. All indications are that we are just at the initial stages of this event and what we have seen so far was more or less just an “Appetizer” as there is more to come, most likely more severe and destructive. So far the majority of the public, at least the ones paying any attention have been wondering what on earth is going on?

Unusual and heavy flooding or snow in some areas, while other areas are draught stricken. The same holds true with an increase in earthquake and volcanic eruptions. At the same time unseasonably hot in one area while unusual cold in another, along with one season running into another. Needless to say no explanations will be forthcoming from any official sources, as it may be having the same effect as shouting fire in an auditorium full of people.

I just wondered, becsuse tourists today go to weird places, like active volcanoes in New Zealand.

On Tuesday I saw PR earthquake news on CBS, NBC, CBS, BBC, and various public TV stations. They probably have to wait to gather TV worthy photographs and tape and the worst damage was in the South, not the north near San Juan.

Last night I spoke with my son in Guaynabo, near San Juan. He says they definitely felt the quakes, but not as strongly as one from a decade ago. He has electrical knowledge and says the big electrical machines (generators?) are shut down with an earthquake to prevent $millions in damage and it takes 18 hours to carefully ramp them back up. Thus with several quakes less than 18 hours apart, electricity likely to be off several days. Damage minimal compared with hurricane damage to power lines.

Regarding housing he says that a lot of buildings built on stilts, they collapsed with shaking. Apparently these are just vertical uprights, without diagonal bracing which would create strong triangular support structures. I hope the authorities and architects will pay attention to this serious structural issue.
