Having lived in L.A. most of my life and surviving 2-3 major earthquakes myself, I felt something wasn't right about this quake right from the beginning. First of all, the shockwave of the quake traveled much farther than a normal quake. I live six hours north from the epicenter, and the quake clearly shook us pretty good. My whole building at work shook, and most everyone in north Jersey felt it, and it was reported that it was felt all the way up in Maine! Let's compare that to the '89 San Francisco quake which was much stronger than the VA quake. I lived in L.A. at the time, which was also six hours from the epicenter. The effects of that quake were NOT felt in L.A. at all. The same can be said for the two major quakes I experienced -- the '71 Sylmar quake which was a 6.3, and the '94 Northridge quake which was a 7.0. Neither of these quakes were felt as far north as San Francisco. People in San Diego felt them, but San Diego is only 2.5 hours from L.A, not six. Again, I'm not an expert by any means, I can only talk about my own experiences. But there's something about this VA quake that doesn't add up in my opinion.
So Maud posts a thread about how the gubernmint is using earthquake generators to reroute hurricanes? The whole Confederacy thing makes sense now.
5.9 is considered a monster quake? Radical course change in Irene? Yeah, right. Fuck this amatuer e-journalist and his bullshit. It's becasue of the geological makeup of the eastern US. USGS helps explain.
That was an unbelievably stupid conspiracy article. Figures that Muad Dib and Black Dove would go for it.
You'd best quit researching the peculiarities of this little quake unless you want a visit from THEM, Sparky.
Can I really be the first person to think of the Cloverfield monsters? Those crawled out of an underwater seismic fault near the eastern shore, right?
I've already had a few strange run-ins with THEM after I did an interview with famous alien abductee Stan Romanek for my weekly radio show. For weeks afterwards I would hear clicks on my phone line like it was tapped, or I'd hear someone else breathing on the line that wasn't myself or the other person I was talking to. Not to mention the strange server issues that cropped up that prevented us from airing that show when it was scheduled. You can't stop the signal, dickheads!!!
Holy Jeebus, is there nothing in the world that some gullible buffoon can't turn into a conspiracy theory? Earthquake machines? Weather manipulation? Oy.
Yeah yeah, laugh it up, you pointy-eared hobgoblin. Once I get the asteroid attractor ray up and running, then you'll be sorry!
Can someone tell me exactly how an earthquake is supposed to effect a hurricane at all, let alone redirect it?
...maybe something to do with churning up the ocean and getting more cool moisture into the air? I dunno.
The energy from the earthquake actually put up a wall of energy, invisible, which drove the hurricane into its new path. The goal of the earthquake was to prevent Florida from being hit.
Hey, she said affect it at all, not necessarily change the direction of it. If ocean currents affect the weather, then disturbing the ocean currents could reasonably be expected to also affect the weather.
Batboy is not a hobgoblin. Batboy is a batboy. Batboy does not believe it becomes Paladin to play dumb. Paladin knows very well who "the guy who controls the Hurricane Machine" is.
You know I find entertaining? If you go to the BBC website for their Discovery program and listen to their Thin Air episodes, you'll hear the reporter walking around the European version of HAARP, talking about what it can do. Nobody ever gets their panties in a bunch about that, and nobody accuses the Europeans of using it to cause natural disasters.
Um, Irene went almost exactly where the hurricane center said she would, within about a 30-mile margin of error. What "redirect?"
