Big thanks for that. Installed 3.6 and the new eQuake and all is working fine.

By the way to people thinking of going this route, you need to install Firefox 3.6 first and then the new eQuake from the link. FF will prevent it from loading, but just click on Allow. Restart FF again and eQuake will be there.

Glad it worked for ya

have you got any big predictions for the next week?

reply to post by jumpingbeanz

I don't predict.

I prepare.

Going out tomorrow to get propane and a bag of charcoal for my new Volcano II emergency stove.

reply to post by berkeleygal


what area are you preparing for?

i just wanted to see if anyone had any predictions.

reply to post by jumpingbeanz


as per my screen name I live in Berkeley CA - right between the San Andreas and the Hayward faults.

Preparing for anything.

reply to post by jumpingbeanz


I am sure there are many, many threads on predictions here on ats - you might want to go have a look see. I read of one just earlier on another thread - i'll post for you if i see it again.

5.4 goose green falklands .
dident think they got earthquakes ....em arnt they looking for oil in the falklands ...eme what do they use to find oil ..

Checking USGS for that Falklands quake.

Nothing yet.

reply to post by berkeleygal


I do believe that may be the 5.4 south sandwich island quake posted by USGS - milage does not appear correct though but the map does - idk strange

reply to post by Anmarie96


That's what I thought too when I looked up where the falklands are.

I check on RSOE now and then but I really rely 100% on USGS. Sometimes RSOE has wrong info.

reply to post by Anmarie96


okay cheers

reply to post by dashar


they use a giant drill, what happens when they pump the earth for oil??? i mean they're taking a natural substance so whats going to fill the earth it when its gone??? we should stop nicking earth elements

reply to post by Anmarie96


Both maps seem to agree, but that is not Goose Green!



RSOE states 2,327 km (1.24 miles) of Goose Green Settlement - the position on the map agrees with the kilometres distance but the have got the mileage conversion screwed up. USGS distances look OK

reply to post by jumpingbeanz


By the way when they remove oil I believe they pump water in to take it's place. You will also find interesting stuff on ATS and Wikipedia about the abiotic creation of oil. It may not be such a finite resource as imagined, which also may explain why the reserves are always increasing.

Is Gaia holding her breath or did the three 6's yesterday wear her out?

Beware the ides of March. Or maybe the day after?
