This article is a news item about a scientist who is predicting a large earthquake in southern California sometime before September 5th.
A US geophysicist has set the scientific world ablaze by claiming to have cracked a holy grail: accurate earthquake prediction, and warning that a big one will soon hit southern California.
Its both scary and good news rolled into one. A big quake in a heavily populated are will not be a good thing, but if the science behind it is valid, then we have a new method of predicting earthquakes months ahead of time. That will save a lot of lives if used properly.
