Ok. The reason I lashed you that hard is your choice of words made it sound like you were stating it as fact, rather than theory.
[edit]
Regarding historical earthquakes.. it is not uncommon for people to reference on event by another.. 'i.e. shortly after the eclipse'. 'shortly'
being relative. I do it with my friends all the time. 'Just a few days ago...' then someone will point out that it was a month.
*old* historical dates are often very 'general'. Eclipses used to be major events for people so it was natural they would relate other signficant
occurance to the timing of them (mayan's, etc)

i'm sorry if i lashed out myself... but if one were to tihink, 30 days in modern time is a long time, 30 days in old times, was no time at all, it
took that sometimes to travel to different cities. and like E_T said, it takes 27 days for the moon to circle the earth, for the moon and earth in
speaking of time, thats just one turn.... if that made sense
