Precursors

I have been hearing background sizzling for ages it is not bothersome (but I know what it is.) Yesterday slugs made an appearance which is the wrong side of the continuum for a precursor (but I can only tell you what I saw.)

I got tired in the middle of the day and went to bed thinking how my shoulder hurts. A few hours later at 7pm I woke up and became aware of a change in the noise, not something I can repeat with a whistle. maybe a #E?

And realised that my shoulder had eased a little. So that was nicer.  Not nice just a little less unnice. But beggars can't be choosy so I'll take it. See the things I do for you?

It occurred to me the non appearance of a large earthquake is because of a swarm instead. So I went looking for it but found this triangle surrounding the Fijian triangle:

With a line leading to the centre. (See my point about stoopid geology placing misleading fake science all over these things?)
You can't stop fools being stupid but you don't have to follow them.

So now I am wondering at the significance of the offshore epicentres as opposed to the South American ones...
Here's the list:
