Sorry to differ.
I saw what I saw on my screen from a bonafide quake site.
I was not exaggerating.
I was not misperceiving.
I was not being sloppy in my counting nor in my reporting.
I’m not insisting that anyone believe me.
Thankfully, God knows the honesty of my assertions.
The listing was real. I counted the number of quakes 7.0 and above several times because I was a bit incredulous.
I have no explanation for what happened to that list. Evidently the FR thread with the link has been pulled.
Excuse me .. you said “NINE 7.0 quakes” - There was no such thing. There were 3 at 7.0 quakes in a row - and the rest of the quakes on the map were all much lower than that.
I still say - you were playing with the facts.
What you “saw” were a bunch of quakes in the same place - but that doesn’t mean they were all 7.0 or better.
Go to the post where the map link is shown and look at it again. As you place your cursor on each corner of the squares - you will find that it shows what the strength of the quake was - and they were NOT all 7.0 quakes.
And .. why wouldn’t you want people to believe you ..??
