Quite unusual.
More likely an increased awareness, as opposed to an increase in global earthquake frequency. Were it not for the internet would you have even known about any of these?
I sent it to #attackwatch for you
This is the first I’ve heard of this 188 day thing, when did it first start making the rounds?
Dunno. This thread is my first ever exposure to it.
God has His timetable. I’ll stick with *His* as He reveals it ;-)
We should send EVERY member of Congress to AttackWatch.
And every 501C3
;-)
In fact, we should send AttackWatch to AttackWatch. I wonder if that would lock them up?
That’s my take on it as well, it was just so odd that I had to wonder where it came from. It’s interesting to note the symmetry of the quake timings, but that’s about it for me as I don’t think there’s anything prophetic about this.
It a different ring of fire.
There were 188 days between the Chile, New Zealand and Japan quakes. Today is the 188th day since the Japan quake. Just sayin’.
We should find a way to turn in to attackwatch every story and comment on the cnn.com, DU and msnbc.com
Surely some of our FR IT mavens could write a macro to do that.
Turn me in for writing this ;-)
LOL.
The departure of said Cuban food from the gut is an event horizon to NOT look forward to ;-)

Since I’ve been following quakes, this is the first time ever I’ve seen this many quakes initially reported at 6.0+ in a time span as short as these occurred, which is why I made the ‘unusual’ comment...
What happens on one side of the world eventually impacts the other. I’m on the central CA coast. The last big one was in ‘89; the next is just around the corner.
Incidentally, I was walking around the house yesterday and got a bit wobbly on a few occasions...no, couldn’t be those quakes...too far.
Japan yes, others probably not.
