Hardly. A skeptic seeks reliable information and doesn't indulge in unsupported statements. Until you learn to research and debate like a skeptic, >>

Tell me where I can find reliable factual information and I'll gladly us it, but unfortunately, the only information available is by scientists with unprovable conventional theories, or educated guesses, and an engineer's guesses are just as good as theirs.

No, they are not, as that idiot Dembski has experienced many times.

You have been given reliable information and you refused to look at it. That makes you an idiot as well and a dishonest one in the bargain.

And if you are just guessing, as you have implied, then the greater fool you.

You weren't there. You've got no clue as to whether those "shots" you saw were of the "actual negatives" or of something else entirely. You're just a big hypocrite, failing to hold to the standard of evidence that you demand of "true sciences." Pathetic.

Earthquake causes:


Tectonic Plates

The crust of our planet is cracked into seven large and many other smaller slabs of rock called plates, averaging about 50 miles thick. As they move (only inches per year), and depending on the direction of that movement, they collide, forming deep ocean trenches, mountains, volcanoes, and generating earthquakes.

Simple enough....

I just had an excellent dinner. Calf's brains always seem to leave me in a state of inner peace. Maybe it's because I ate the good memory part.

Thanks for locating all those faults that can't be scene. I'll add it to my growing list of all the other things that can't be seen like ghosts, goblins, thoughts, atoms, etc.

Watch the video. Pay attention at the 3 minute mark.

The foundation of morality is to . . . give up pretending to believe that for which there is no evidence, and repeating unintelligible propositions about things beyond the possibliities of knowledge.

Cantbe claims to have experienced major CA earthquakes including one in the 1930s, but all we have to go on is his statement. There's no proof that he was even alive in the '30s. Hell comes to that, there's no proof he's alive right now. What we might be dealing with here is some high school kid that can't get a date and spends his time being an hypocrite on the Internet.

So how 'bout some proof, cantbe, about anything, really? You've made a lot of bold statements, waved your hands, and offered nothing to back any of it up. That leaves you open to accusations of being a common phony, which I, for one, am leveling right now.

Have you thought about going into politics? I'm sure you'd feel right at home there amongst the other phonies, notably the Republican ones....

Takes one to know one...


Ahh yes, the old "I know you are but what am I?" line of logic. Glad to know that the level of discussion is so erudite

I was in the middle of all the major CA quakes... 1933, 1952, 1971, and I never found out what caused them.

Not at all. I charted seismograph readings for Western Geophysical for two years.


Could you please provide evidence that this is credible information? I have not seen anything that proves that claim as true

I saw shots of the actual negatives myself, and with them blown up 300 times


Please tell me where I can find reliable factual information that what you claim here is accurate.

Are you making up your own rules?


I am merely applying your rules to your claims, which, as of yet, are wholly unbelievable and without evidence

"What the hell is an Aluminum Falcon?"

"Oh, I'm sorry. I thought my Dark Lord of the Sith could protect a small thermal exhaust port that's only 2-meters wide! That thing wasn't even fully paid off yet! You have any idea what this is going to do to my credit?!?!"

"What? Oh, oh, 'just rebuild it'? Oh, real [bleep]ing original. And who's gonna give me a loan, jackhole? You? You got an ATM on that torso LiteBrite?"

It's impossible to find evidence for common sense, and I have no need to lie, so take it or leave it.
