I think that the OP did a great job noticing some patterns in economy or even the abnormalities. Due to all of the rude and hateful people that responded I actually woke up a little sad that nothing happened.

Your logic is mind-bendingly frightening.

I have read every post on this thread and I will continue to do so.
I find it particularly strange that the ones that want to pounce the hardest are the ones that didn't believe in my theory in the first place. You think the greatest vocal reactions would have come from those most effected and not those unaffected at all by this thread. Is that common in the other prediction threads? I truly wonder about the psychology behind this phenomena if my observation is not inaccurate.
I have noticed that most of the critics judged my theory without actually reading the theory. I guess a person that chooses to read only the title and first paragraph and thinks this is impossible...often has their attention span for reading become as short as can be on the subject matter. The same effect would happen to me in trying to read a long post about horticulture, horses, or algebra.
One or two persons actually made some effort in dismissing the facts behind the theory (ie telling me that the Devil's number is not 666 but 616). That was the correct manner of discussion if the goal is truth. An honest debate involves focusing on the facts and explaining why the facts and connections are wrong or right. People that can't deal in facts typically resort to attacking the character. More evidence to back up my theory existed than their exists evidence that HAARP can cause earthquakes, so I do not apologize for believing in what I believed. Neither do I expect proponents of HAARP's earthshaking capacities to apologize.
Neither were/are my apologies about mine actions that I believed were the right thing to do for everyone in the long-term.
My apologies were/are about this: 1) For having succumbed in my mind to the wrong choice. and 2) For the consequences of my choices and actions. Sometimes the right action begets bad consequences.
Also, any person that categorically dismisses the existence of signs....would not bother to believe in the signs that I believed and posted about in this thread. This thread was about apocalyptic signs and an individual's interpretation of such signs. Turns out I was wrong.
Again I am deeply sorry and apologetic to all of you that have experienced any kind of consequence in relation to my choices and actions.

This forum is getting way out of hand with all the doom day threads seriously. Between this thread and the guy who does earthquake threads every hour it seems like its getting old big time. What is it with people feeling the need to put the fear of god in every one? I realize the internet is all about free speech but you know what have a little common sense before you post! I remember when ATS was a respected place instead of a bastion of fear and death.

Brian,
In all due seriousness, you must not beat yourself up over something like this. I am a scientist, and we have trained minds of reason. Your "prediction" as you put it, did not follow any of the basic rules of logic. Things happen for a reason. There is a basic principle called "cause & effect". I did read your post, and my trained mind's safe guards did not allow any of it to process due to it not having a foundation of validity.

OP
and you and all you so called channelers are a bunch of frauds....
Oh and if you think a 6.9 in Solomon Islands proves your predictions...you are retarded...that is no where near California...and is hardly significant.

Alright, Ill give it to Monday still. If anything happens in this period of time I will come here again and offer my sincere apologies for my doubts and lack of faith. But if nothing happens till Monday midnight, can I get at least an apologize too? because in that case I was the one right at doubting that something was going to happen...

The definition of a hoax requires intention to deceive.
I have not given a single reason for anyone to honestly believe such a notion.
