"And the best we can say is we don't know what's going to happen."

Can we trade these scientists for the global warming know-it-alls?

Craig dePolo, with the Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology, said he understands the anxiety of residents who have lived with the persistent shaking.

"What's going on is extraordinary," he agreed. "People are being needled by little earthquakes ... for months."

"And the best we can say is we don't know what's going to happen."

That's what he gets for getting in Geology - had he gone into climate science, well, their predictions are always SO accurate.< / sarcasm >

I say this as I look outside, on May 1, and it's SNOWING.

I've been steeped in politics too long--from the headlines, I actually thought this was an article on Janet Reno.

You beat me to the punch!!

Why are people so gullible about global warming when there are endless climatic and natural phenomenon that scientists are still trying to understand?

It’s Global Warming I tell you! Owl Gore warned us, but we did not listen.....

It is snowing here too. About 2 inches in the last hour. That is Global Warming too. Everything is Global Warming. See...I am learning how to think in the event Hillbama gets elected. I think I can escape the purges.

Located at 84.4 degrees North and South Latitude are Polar Openings
that lead into the hollow interior of our planet where the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel today dwell
in perfect harmony, with life spans equal to those of the Methuselahs of the Bible,
whose only desire is to live in peace. Their flying saucers in defense of their
country at times are seen on our surface world. They don’t come to destroy, they are waiting...

Waiting for us to discover
that world peace is the only answer, not without God, but WITH Him.

We Must Prepare for Their Return...

See the evidence, look at the possibilities, consider those who have gone there, and you will discover truths that
have been hidden from the foundation of the world...

Join us on our Voyage of Discovery...

Would be nice to be a scientist, you get to stay in school for a long long time, no results are expected, and when something happens in your field you don’t have to be able to explain it. All that and the govt grants too.

“And the best we can say is we don’t know what’s going to happen.”

DUH!! Well, maybe they should call the all-knowing, all-concerned-about-the-environment, Nobel Prize winning Goreacle — I’m sure he would know what to do to stop these pesky earthquakes! /sarc

This article reveals how very little the experts actually know when it comes to predicting earthquakes.

...try to figure out what's happening beneath Earth's surface under a northwest Reno neighborhood...

Maybe Al Bore can get a consensus from a group of "scientists" as to what is happening. After all that's what he did to decide what is causing so called global warming.
