Remember Iben Browning, the guy who predicted that there was a 50/50 chance a BIG earthquake was going to hit on the New Madrid fault on a specific day in September of 1990? People here took him seriously and he actually did some good because it got us focused on the fact that there is a big powder keg under us and we better be ready. He died a few years ago, still claiming that his prediction was valid. The last big one, in 1812, actually changed the course of the Mississippi River, which caused part of Illinois (Kaskaskia) to end up on the Missouri side of the river. I wonder if California would like our humidity and those damn mosquitos?
