(Not) Plate Tech

This is a weather chart:


I copied it yesterday from an NA-EFS chart produced by the joint national meteorological agencies of Mexico, United States and Canada assembly prepared by all three nations of North America.

All I have done was add the lines across to show where the Anticyclones form a straight line. And the lines top to bottom showing where cyclones form another straight line. I admit that it is not necessary for the agencies charged with producing these thing to look at them, nor draw conclusions about them.

I feel bound to tell anyone who is willing to listen to me that whenever these lines appear it signals either a volcanic eruption or a series of earthquakes. If you are part of any meteorological agency I pity you but can't refrain. Too bad.

The occur each time and this time I believe will lead to a swarm if they have not arrived already.


It's kind of hard to tell, since most swarms tend to swarm.

But I am not concerned with liars and fools, "let them be" is the edict I have read in the good book. But when you see something that looks like a duck and it acts like a duck with the company of ducks, it is hard to imagine it is a canard.


But it is possible.
Has anyone else considered the alternative?

By damn! That was hard work. Why do people insist on using Microsoft?
