Jim Berkland Quake Series And March 19 Moon
The guy who predicted the 1989 SF Quake, predicts a big one in CA between 19-23 March 2011.

Between 1989 and now did he predict a lot of other big quakes that didn't happen?

No. But in all fairness he didn't predict that they wouldn't happen.

and if there is no quake, he flies under the radar. It's the classic low risk, high reward prediction. Sport analysts do it all the time.

This is true. Anyone who even takes the time to comment on nonsense predictions like this is a moronic loser. I just thought I'd take the time to comment on that. Seriously, though, no one can predict an earthquake with such accuracy. Simple as that.

A quick search on google shows he's never stopped predicting earthquakes...

I once saw this movie The Core where they predict that the centre of the earth stops spinning and so these scientists they drove a spaceship into the centre of the earth and blew it up from the inside and saved the earth. They predicted that. Who's the moronic loser now?

So if commenting on predictions makes you a moron, what does commenting on morons make you?

About eighteen minutes to go and I'm still alive.

Where do I go to pick up a commemorative survivor's t-shirt?
