My recent exploration of the wonders of our planet for the past six-months dealt with the unknown nature of the timing of large earthquakes that periodically rumbled through the earth causing untold misery for its inhabitants, naturally as the population of the planet increases the likelihood of one happening without many deaths associated with it are of little chance, needless to say some parts of our world were getting hard pressed to secure its human passengers a place of safety. Nonetheless I did marvel at what little science had learned in the way of predicting these sudden events – we can calculate to the closest fraction of an inch the trajectory of a guided missile, the timing of an eclipse down to the very milli-second, and within a few million or so light-years the beginning of our Universe – but yet we have not found the magic formula that foretells, even to a month, of the slipping of the land mass beneath our feet. My goal was not to achieve any sort of predictive mechanism, something I figured some bright person in the infancy of their years would perhaps stumble on after I was long gone from this existence, but to paw through our huge worldwide database of information in search of a link between events occurring across scattered locations seems to give me some purpose, especially when I’m snuggled in my favorite chair in my office in my home port in the Salish Sea. https://smashwords/books/view/291539
