Reply #115: I have mixed feelings about some things you say.

I do know Bush wants to re-start nuclear testing.

And IMHO, Bush would allow a nuclear test to be performed if he thought he could get away with it.

Could a badly placed nuclear weapon on a fault line trigger an earthquake early, maybe. In California they monitor the stress between the plates and when the stress builds to a point, they know an earthquake will happen within the next X years. The key is early. If the Pacific plates were at a stess level that an earthquake was only a matter of years, it would have happened with or without help from a nuclear weapon.

During the days after the earthquake, I posted and watch the Net for information on Diego Garcia AFB. But in the end, there was nothing strange going on there. Had the island been evalulated before the earthquake that would have been troubling.

An old saying "Remember there is no such thing as a dumb question--only those unasked are dumb. "


IMHO with the large number of people and posts per day, if somebody want to make DU look bad, they will be able to find something to bitch about.
