Latest entry from Brians Dreams is:
"new crack runs straight through earth on opposite ends of world - look at epicenters? W Orbital tilt 23.44 to 5.27 in 779 days?"
that leads us to the date of December 2011.

Tectonic plate cracking is bigtime for all the planet If anything is to survive, there would be no seasons with a tilt of only 5.27 degrees. The summation would also be that climates would become far more stable, less extreme, bringing in an entirely new epoc.

The world quakes

The principal research interest of Prof Sieh is earthquake geology, which uses geological layers and landforms to understand the geometries of active faults, the earthquakes they generate, and the crustal structure their movements produce. His early work on the San Andreas fault led to the discovery of how often and how regularly it produces large earthquakes in southern California.
More recently, his students and colleagues along with himself investigated Taiwan's multitude of active faults and figured out how their earthquakes are creating that mountainous island. they are currently exploring the earthquake geology of Myanmar (Burma). their principal current research interest is the subduction megathrust that produced the devastating giant Sumatran earthquakes and Indian Ocean tsunamis of 2004 and 2005. That research suggests that the megathrust is poised to produce yet another giant earthquake in western Sumatra.
