    Israeli scientists were able to simulate an earthquake that measured 3.0 on the Richter Scale, and they did it by detonating some explosives. Did it cause the ground to wobble ? Yes, but isn't that precisely what an earthquake does ? An earthquake, after all - is - by definition - something that causes the ground to "wobble."

    If the earthquake happens to be strong enough, then it's REALLY going to cause the ground to wobble ...

    I never said that electromagnetic waves cause earthquakes.

    You don't know that ... you cannot possibly know with any degree of certainty, whether it was an accident, or whether it was a deliberate act of sabotage.

    Earthquake definition: a series of vibrations induced in the earth's crust by the abrupt rupture and rebound of rocks in which elastic strain has been slowly accumulating.

    I'm sure the same vibrations can be simulated, that's why they use the word "simulated" in both reports.

    You argued using a source which claimed that electromagnetic waves were being used to cause all sorts of natural disasters. Remember that?

    Several tons of explosives were detonated by the Israeli scientists, causing the earth to tremble and shake, and the results of this explosion were measured on a Richter Scale. It was a man-made earthquake, albeit a minor one, but it was still an earthquake nonetheless. The article states that it was a "simulated earthquake." I interpret this to mean that it wasn't the same type of earthquake as those which occur naturally; but rather, it was an earthquake that was induced artificially through human intervention and contrivance.

    < "Richter scale –noun - a scale, ranging from 1 to 10, for indicating the intensity of an earthquake." >>

    Imagine that the scientists had used a much greater quantity of explosives. The results would have been a whole lot more destructive, and yet ... it would still have to be classified as a simulated earthquake !

    I posted some information about the government's "haarp program," but at no time did I ever seek to establish any sort of connection between the government's "haarp program" and the generation of man-made earthquakes.

    This is just one more disaster added onto a never ending list untill the end.. and one more disaster to piss people off. we should organize ourselves and take to the streets. walk the streets gathering angered human beings ready to take action. This is the time, we cannot go gently into that good night. We cannot let them destroy this amazing planet without the fight of our lives.
    and to moondrizzle.. they have been practising weather control for many years now. its been in many documenteries and media reports(wich can or cannot be trusted). so the power to control hurricanes is definatly there.

    As an old hippie, nothing would make me happier than to see young people getting out of their comfort zone and taking to the streets to protest the corporate takeover of America.

    Corporate takeover my ass. It is a socialist revolution bent on destroying America. Oops forgot this was an oil spill thread. It was an accident. An unplanned occurrence that could have been cleaned up if the federal government wouldn't be so lazy, but alas in order to collapse a government you have to destroy all of its economy.

    I totally disagree with you. It's a corporate takeover. The government has no ability whatsoever to clean up this gusher. 90% of the blame goes to the corporations; 10% to politicians who are in their pockets.

    The 'blame game' is pretty useless. Instead of playing the 'blame game,' we should be putting our heads together in an effort to come up with a solution to the problem at hand, which is the "oil gusher" in the Gulf that continues to spew oil into the oceans. I was thinking about the problem a little while ago, and I think that I came up with a possible solution to the problem. The solution is obvious ... they can solve the problem at hand by building a large system of "piping" that will act as a "chute" around the oil gusher. This action will serve two (2) purposes: a) it will effectively contain the oil, and b) it will provide an avenue for collecting the oil. The escaping oil can then be funneled to the surface of the ocean and beyond, and then, while the oil is shooting up out of the ocean, they can catch the oil with a large collection tank. The idea is to get the oil to shoot up into the outside air above the surface of the ocean, and then to catch the oil in a container. We need to submit this idea to the government, and we need to do it pronto !

    Well, thanks for trying, but it strikes me as foolish to think that any of us can think of engineering techniques that the oil industry hasn't thought of.

    I wouldn't be so quick to assume that the industry has contemplated this particular idea. In fact, it may be the only workable method of containing the disaster. The idea certainly does present a few inherent problems, but - all in all - it strikes me as being a workable solution to the disaster. Is there a toll-free number we can call ?

    Two little kids figured out how to plug the hole. And they demonstrated it so now all we need to do is get bp to do it.

    http://johnkaminski.info/pages/the_next_chapter/print/apocalypse_travel_plans.htm << "Once they reach the inevitable conclusion that the Gulf of Mexico oil volcano must not be allowed to continue — all life on the surface of this planet so thoroughly raped by humans will be dead in two years, as the atmosphere rapidly becomes poisoned with benzene, methane and sulfur dioxide, something like the toxic atmospheres of Jupiter or Saturn — the Russian experts they’ve just imported for advice will convince them to nuke the gulf." >>

    you may say these big companies are to blame but we are just as much to blame. we are the ones demanding for this resource causing for more explorations deeper into the ocean.

    yes, bp should have had a risk assessment in place for what has happened. its just ridiculous that there wasnt and took at least a month to take action on the clean up.

    we need to change our ways before companies change theres. as long as they are making money they dont care. bring on alternative energy and lets take full use of these. yes, renewable energy will have impacts on the environment but what we are using now impacts on everything
