Bluestar said:So yes, there is activity here in the states and yes maybe we are in for some not so normal activity, I just think Dutchsinse is putting things together in an abstract way without any real proof of what he is saying regarding the US. And maybe Japan is falling into the ocean. This is not an expert opinion from me, just wanted to outline some basic info that you can discern for yourselves.
dugdeep said:One thing he is good for, at least, is simply tracking seismic activity, although his predictive capabilities may be totally useless if he's pulling out patterns that don't exist.
He seems to be posting videos announcing quakes before they're reported in the press, too, like the 6.3 that just hit this morning 70km south of the Fukishima plant.

Pob said:See above :) His predictions are like coffee cup reading, at least in some cases.
OR, as the C's said in the last session: you can still keep watching his videos but be aware there is information mixed with speculation in there. :)
PressTV said:Japan's Tokyo Electric Power Co. (TEPCO) says smoke has risen from the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa nuclear plant in the coastal Niigata Prefecture.
TEPCO reported on Saturday that smoke rose briefly from a control panel at the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa nuclear power plant during the checking of water purification equipment.
It added that the cause of the incident was not clear, but no one was injured.

Isn't Peru a dangerous country??
Aya said:Well...a sad thing is that people in Japan (especially people in Tokyo) seem like they do not care about anything above all. Like quite many people have the -"There is nothing we can do about it so why should we care??"-attitude. So they live their lives as if nothing has happened.
That is the most dangerous thing to me...
The normalcy bias refers to a mental state people enter when facing a disaster. It causes people to underestimate both the possibility of a disaster occurring and its possible effects. This often results in situations where people fail to adequately prepare for a disaster, and on a larger scale, the failure of the government to include the populace in its disaster preparations. The assumption that is made in the case of the normalcy bias is that since a disaster never has occurred then it never will occur. It also results in the inability of people to cope with a disaster once it occurs. People with a normalcy bias have difficulties reacting to something they have not experienced before. People also tend to interpret warnings in the most optimistic way possible, seizing on any ambiguities to infer a less serious situation.
