Look, anyone with a clue knows that Honshu is going to take a major hit one day, it's for sure going to happen.
But, it might be in 150,000 years, or it could be tomorrow.
We CAN predict WHERE earthquakes are likely to happen, as you said.
Regarding WHEN they happen, we're not good at predicting that. But I think we can do better than "in 150,000 years, or tomorrow" in many cases. Trying
to pin it down to the day is unprecedented. We can't even pin it down to the decade. Depending on the Earthquake we may be able to predict it to
within a few decades.
One of the most predictable Earthquake zones in the world is near Hollister CA, which claims to be "earthquake capitol of the world". And even
predicting those earthquakes can be a decade off. The reason we can predict more accurately there is the presence of nature's version of "baby powder"
in the earth, which causes it to slip more easily than in most other places, so you get lots of smaller Earthquakes, instead of fewer big earthquakes
in other areas, where the stress builds up because of the lack of a "lubricant" like near Hollister.

Guys/Gals, I think our friend Dr B is having some sort of mid-life crisis or a break-down.
From his picture I'd say he's past mid-life. May
be more like senility? His website made me laugh:

"The saga of Star Visitors' contacts with humankind is the greatest unpublished headline of the Millenium, and the most important missing fact in our
history books."
-- Dr. Richard Boylan
As soon as I see a site has won some kind of spirits awards, I'm already skeptical. But then reading about the star visitors
contacts kind of confirms it...Hey doc, did you ever stop to think about why those headlines are unpublished? There's a reason!

seem like mine and reproduce some of my articles, but which contain others' articles, often of dubious validity. - RJB )
That's the part that
made me laugh, a site of very dubious validity accusing other sites of having content of dubious validity!
