Here are the FR links to the two original stories:

Earthquakes Became Five Times More Energetic Due to Global Warming

No second chance? Can Earth explode as a result of Global Warming?

Chalko's a far, far out woo-woo crystal-loving nutcase.

Dr Tom J. Chalko lives in Mt Best, Victoria, Australia. He holds PhD in laser holography since 1979 and MEngSc in engineering since 1975. From 1982 to 2001 he was an academic at the University of Melbourne, Australia. He enjoys a good health, that he has restored himself in 1994 from quite a miserable state. He plays classical guitar exceptionally well, enjoys windsurfing (he calls himself a speed addict here), takes time to practice meditation, telepathy and astral travel. His hobbies include challenging paradigms and paradoxes in geophysics, studying puzzling properties of electro-photonic glow (Auras) using Kirlian camera, learning to see human aura, discovering purpose of life, as well as organizing controversial seminars.

I saw that dude at a Dead show once. He had a bong made out of a diggery doo.

He’s a righteous cat, man.

takes time to practice meditation, telepathy and astral travel

Ok - that's the most hilarious bit here. It's one thing to believe in something absurd but to claim to practice that absurd thing is quite another. If you believe in Sasquatch well - good for you, but if you claim to have had him over for tea this past Thursday, well...

A psych prof of mine used to point out that neurosis is 'building castles in the air' but psychosis is moving in. I guess we know where Chalko lives.

HAHAHAHAHAHA.

CBS NEWS source-bioresonant.com.

I'm holding my side. "If you doubt whether a planet can explode - you need to see a witness report of a planetary explosion in our Solar system. Plato (428-348 BC) reported that the explosion of the planet Phaeton had been perceived by our ancestors on Earth to be as bright as lightning...".

Chalko looks like he should be building mail bombs in a tiny cabin in Montana.

Sounds suspiciously like the same traits that TereTza loved in JFn Kerry! Is he running for office in Australia?
