Computer models are showing an interesting relationship between star-quakes and earthquakes. Supernova, star-quakes and similar burst of energy in the Universe triggers earthquakes and tsunamis.
According to researchers, most of the large earthquakes and Tsunamis happened when there was a burst of energy somewhere in the cosmos.
According to BBC, Astronomers say they have been stunned by the amount of energy released in a star explosion on the far side of our galaxy, 50,000 light-years away.
The flash of radiation on 27 December was so powerful that it bounced off the Moon and lit up the Earth's atmosphere.
The blast occurred on the surface of an exotic kind of star - a super-magnetic neutron star called SGR 1806-20.
One calculation has the giant flare on SGR 1806-20 unleashing about 10,000 trillion trillion watts.
Now computer models are showing that the burst of energy reached the earth slightly before the major earthquake happened which triggered the Tsunami.
Looking at the past, the computer models are finding a clear correlation between earthquakes, major volcanoes, and landslides, Tsunamis with major burst of energies reaching the earth due to earthquakes.
The models are also showing that the galactic cosmos level energy busts dictate intra-planetary tectonic movements.
It seems that the Universe is connected through these cosmos level energy bursts. If this theory is proven true then it can conjecture that major tectonic movements are caused by major events in the Universe. In other words, different parts the Universe is virtually interconnected.
In order to say the earthquake occurred before the radiation arrived, we have to be on exactly the same time stamp. A few hours of difference, and even a day difference is not unusual when mixing GMT and various local time stamps.
So who knows......
*ahem* His is. His entire livelihood depends on them...
Oh, and poppycock too!-)
Now let's say that there are N chinese, with average weight m, jumping from height h. Then the total energy is about
Nmgh
Let's use some conservative numbers here:
Let's say that there are 10 billion chinamen
Let's say that they weigh 100 kg each
Let's approximage the acceleration of gravity with 10m/s/s
Then we have
10,000,000,000*100*10=10,000,000,000,000
1*1012 joules of energy.
The earthquake chart at http://www.geop.itu.edu.tr/~onur/seis/energy.html
gives that as equivalent to a magnitude 5.5 earthquake, or about a fifth of a Nagasaki bomb.

My theory is that flatulance causes earthquakes and tsunami.
Can it be disputed that, somewhere on the planet, at least one human being farted at the precise moment of the earthquake on December 26?
HORRORS!!! Confiscate all beans and bean products immediately!!
Ya think? LOL!
Oh yeah? Durned smarty-pants!
2004 was the Year of the Monkey, known for "water" disasters, e.g. hurricanes and tsunamis.
Chinese astrologers predicted that during the Year of Monkey, Bush would remain in office and that his challenger would be a "weak" man.
The only way I could see any influence at all is through the influence of EM radiation passing over the iron in the earth's core in just the right way. Potential effects are:
Influence on movement or liquid or spin of earth
Generation of electrical and magnetic fields that interfere with existing fields
Massive accumulation of tinfoil in isolated locations
The first could possibly, just possibly, cause enough of a shift in spin or motion of the mantle to influence tectonic action, but I believe even that notion is a hugh stretch. I just enjoy exploring the possible mechanisms to explain otherwise unrelated phenomena.
