Sometimes I wonder whether TM-Sidhi True Believers have *lost* brain cells as a result of all that thumping around. Here John presents the ultimate non-falsifiable, self-aggrandizing pseudo-prediction. If there is an earthquake, it's because there weren't enough butt-bouncers. But if there is not an earthquake, TM butt-bouncers like himself get to claim that they prevented it or held it off. I would think that if there were thousands of butt bouncers doing their programs at the same time every day in the Bay Area, all that thudding of fat, out-of-shape butts on foam could actually *cause* an earthquake. I mean, if they're as full of shit as they appear to be, each of them is lifting several tons off the foam with each bounce, and then allowing it to plop back to earth with a resounding thud. Those thuds -- all coherent and happening in synchrony, of course -- could create a ground wave in the earth's crust that would shatter one of the faults. So I think that if there *is* a big earthquake in the Bay Area, we should hold John and his fellow butt bouncers *responsible* for it, and stick them with the bill for cleanup. Extrapolating from John's logic, can't you just imagine the bottom line of one of his Jyotish readings? This is what the stars predict for you; if these things happen, it proves the validity of Jyotish. If they *don't* happen, that proves the *value* of Jyotish, because by knowing about the possibility of these things happening, we 'avoided the pain that is to come' and prevented them from happening. That'll be $250, please. Win-win. Bullshit-bullshit.

A very good point! We've had that in the back of our minds all along. You spoke it for us.

True Believers (TBs)! In and out of religious cults for most of their adult life, with nothing to show for it. Barry and Sally.

Get ready for even foggier summers (Bay Area) http://tinyurl.com/ksw49y Theory and wouldn't be surprised vs Actual fog measurements The first article is based on actual measurements: Since 1901, the average number of hours of fog along the coast in summer has dropped from 56 per cent to 42 per cent, which is a loss of about three hours per day, said the study leader Dr James Johnstone at the University of California. The second article is merely speculation: -The theory, then and now, is that the hotter the Central Valley gets, the greater the temperature and pressure gradients between the inland and coast will be - therefore forming more fog... UC Santa Barbara researcher Park Williams likewise adds that while the ocean is warming, the coastal waters are colder this year. He considers the possible effects of global warming along the Pacific coast to be the million-dollar question, but wouldn't be surprised if foggier summers are in the offing.

But I'm back and it is sunny and likely to be in the 70's today. Last summer was cooler than usual. It has been a colder winter. It's sunny and clear over here in San Francisco near Ocean Beach. I just had a wonderful Tandoori chicken special at a local Indian restaurant. I can still taste the tart flavoring they put on the garbanzo bean side dish. Now, I'd have to walk these calories off at the Golden Gate Park.

Given the stellium we just passed through maybe we ought not to be too smug or the Earthquake God will decide to rock and roll. ;-) Speaking of tandoori chicken I sorely miss the tandoori chicken sandwich shop that was in the Brenden Theater in Concord. Oh, were those good! The sauce was amazing! But not enough Indians to support it I guess and the rest of Concord, well... It was a second restaurant for the very popular one that was over in the San Pablo or El Cerrito area.
