Again if you could trouble yourself to learn what he is saying instead of blindly debunking. You would see that he talks about the coronal hole's stream energy impacting on the ionosphere as one of the factors for his quake WATCH.
The article reference above is not talking about Solar activity causing earthquakes. To say that NASA is looking at it that way is not true. If you would trouble yourself to read it you would know that
Now let's look at geomagnetic activity at the time. There was very little to be seen. Not even minor storm activity at any time during the period. I don't see how a connection can be made with solar activity under these circumstances
For the 10 day period from Feb. 28 to Mar 10. There was a statistical chance for 4 quakes

No. Each alert day is an independent prediction. A day is an alert day or it's not. He has a 50% chance of being right on any particular day. It's exactly the same as flipping a coin on that day. He says, "this is an alert day". If there is a quake, he was right, if there isn't he was wrong.
With a overall percentage of close to 80% of the 6.0 or better quakes falling within those 24 quake watch days.
On how many of his alert days was there at least one quake? If there were less than 12, he didn't beat the odds.

I don't know why you think there were 16. Actually, for the 70 day period from Jan 1 to Mar 12 (we aren't there yet), there were 32 quakes. That's pretty close to what would be expected (29.2).
16 quakes occured, 13 of which happen during the watches. Which were durning coronal whole streams along with planitary alignments among other factors.

Yes, the first watch showed high earthquake activity because of the Santa Cruz swarm. The second showed nothing unusual.

The magnitude which the USGS considers official for this earthquake is indicated at the top of this page. This was the best available estimate of the earthquake’s size, at the time that this page was created. Other magnitudes associated with web pages linked from here are those determined at various times following the earthquake with different types of seismic data. Although they are legitimate estimates of magnitude, the USGS does not consider them to be the preferred (“official” magnitude for the event
