So,
For all you happy campers, I did some nice research on HAARP and earthquakes.
USGS
HAARP Time Line
First link lists the Earthquakes recorded by the USGS in the world. Second link shows the timeline of HAARP. As can be seen from the timeline, HAARP
became operational say January 1995. Ok, let's have a look at the statistics.
I 've taken the mean and SD of the pre-1994 period and the post-1994 period:
Pre-1995 Post-1995
M > 8.0 0.6 +/- 0.9 0.9 +/- 1.0
7.0 < M < 7.9 14.8 +/- 4.8 16.5 +/- 5.3
6.0 < M < 6.9 125 +/- 25 140 +/- 25
5.0 < M < 5.9 1527 +/- 73 1108 +/- 262
4.0 < M < 4.9 4728 +/- 364 8000 +/- 596
3.0 < M< 3.9 3863 +/- 1103 5273 +/-987
2.0 < M < 2.9 3823 +/- 1445 3908+/-1262
1.0 < M < 1.9 824 +/- 252 745 +/- 297
We can note that there is not much change in the occurences of high magnitude quakes (M>6.0) So apperantly, HAARP is not involved in any of those. The
minor increase that is seen for these quakes lies entirely within one standard deviation which I consider here to show non-causality between the
operation of HAARP and quakes. For the magnitude 5.X bin, a decrease is even seen that lies well outside of the mutual SD's of both numbers. It seems
that HAARP activity inhibits quakes of these magnitudes!!
However the 4.X and 3.X bins show a sharp increase of quakes in the post-1995 period. Interesting! HAARP could of course be inducing these, however,
at the same time the USGC might have gotten better equipment. Both explanations are entirely plausible for the seen increase of this statistics.
However, as also can be seen, up to this point in time M>5.0 quakes are not generated by HAARP on a routine basis, otherwise an increase would be
visible. Soooo, where does this leave us?? We have this apparatus out there, which does things that no-one really understands(Me neither!!). It does
things, that's for sure... and what it does is probably somewhere in between what the general public thinks and what the public is told...
So suppose they would have indeed an earthquake generating device, how do they know to which value to turn for a 4.0 quake?
Another question: Do HAARP transmissions always generate earthquakes, or does it go into specific modes: "Generate terrorist attack-mode",
"Generate Earthquake-mode", "Give me that I wanna kill myself-mode", "Auroral research-mode", "shoot down the space shuttle-mode".
I don't know, man. It's just to far-fetched to be all true...
