Re: RMT, What\'s Your Take On.....
Hi MEM,
Seems like a high number of aftershooks in the area. Is that unusual?
Well, since you asked MEM, I guess I should give you an honest reporting of my analysis and thoughts. You might even think it is a wild and wacky speculation, especially since I don't usually subscribe to conspiracy-like theories. But here goes:
IMO, I do believe the magnitudes and frequencies of aftershocks after the initial quake are quite unusual. But that is not all that I find unusual. The relatively shallow depth, and relative consistency of depths of the follow-on aftershocks sticks out like a sore thumb to my eyes. Nature typically structures earthquakes in the same way that nature structures rising bubbles of cheese in a goopy pot of cheese fondue. The mass density and viscosity of melted cheese causes a "random walk" of both locations and depths from which the cheese bubbles-up and bursts. I would expect that naturally occurring aftershocks would appear in random locations around the epicenter of the main quake, and at varying depths above and below the main quake. But we don't seem to see this in the data. The LATs/LONGs and depths are pretty tightly packed in the link you provided.
So let me make my position more clear: Is it a coincidence that this area is where Al Qaeda is centralized and hiding? How about the fact that Bin Laden's network has been known to inhabit caves and underground facilities? Is it possible that they are performing operational tests of weapons that are intended to be able to force-trigger earthquakes on existing tectonic plate junctions?
I'd like to ask Einstein to chime in here, because there was a thread awhile back where he and I both agreed and understood about potential Tesla technology that could create and amplify earthquakes.
I certainly wouldn't put it past Bin Laden to be trying to come up with a means to forcefully induce major earthquakes in the US Pacific Plate region, and that would include Yellowstone! /ttiforum/images/graemlins/ooo.gif
What are your thoughts on this phenomenon you have pointed out?
