Considering Japan has an average of 1500 earthquakes a year,predicting one and being a week off really isn't that impressive.


Edit:even if you just include those that are a 6.0 or above this was the 4th in 12months...so given a two week prediction widow,you'd have about a 1 in 6 chance of predicting a major earthquake by just picking a random date.

HOGWASH! I am psychic!

EDIT: This event is actually changing my life. I never knew I could predict the future like this. I think I'm gonna write a book like Nostradamus.

OK here is my next prediction.

The cap that BP is using to cap the oil isn't going to work, in fact things will get a lot worse.
