rabo Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 <br />So what the heck was all that about on 107 the other morning? Not internet waffle it was someone who was trying to speak with authority about the earthquake...Fortune Teller? Nut case.<br /><br /><br /><br />A week or more ago there was a show on TV, a Thai scientist and authority was arguing about the comming end of the world and great quakes, and there was a lot of footage of past earthquakes. Seems to be going around in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yang123 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Fact: One seismologist at the Chinese State Seismological Bureau predicted the Tangshan earthquake (1976). No-one took much notice, except in one county where major loss of life was avoided. The dorks elsewhere were too busy with the Cultural Revolution to act to save lives.

junglist Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I wish we could place all the fortune tellers and physics and set them adrift on the open seas. Thailand would be a better place and I wouldn't deal with all this garbage. People would have to pick their own lotto numbers, oh the horror. I share your sentiment but I suspect fortune tellers are so universally popular because they provide a crutch for people who, for whatever reason, cannot take reality at face value. Bangkok will be utterly destroyed by biblical sized flood in 2012, earthquakes predicted on particular dates (I think last year it was July), answering your phone and bleeding from orifices, and of course the perennial monk who pronounces lotto numbers to millions (but surely one of them wins!!). It doesn't matter how many times these predictions fail to come true, the same people will just as fervently believe the next one. There has to be a medicine for that. Most countries lock these people away in metal institute but here in Thailand we elevate them to higher status. Even the most prestigious Orical of all times the Orical of Delphi was a hoax. The majority of their very accurate predictions were done from operatives in the field, but history has never been a strong point for most Thais.

Arjay Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 These Thais want to scare away all the tourists. Shoot themselves in the foot again and go back to a "self sufficient economy" aka Cambodia Kamer Rouge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just1Voice Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 About a year or so ago my then 12 yr old Thai niece was reading something and became visible upset. I asked her what was wrong. She said she was reading an "ancient Buddhist writing" that clearly stated that in the year 2553 that Bangkok would be totally destroyed and sink beneath the sea. She asked what would happen to us here in Chiang Mai. I told her we would probably have a party, grateful that BKK was gone, but then a merit ceremony for all the lost lives, and that Chiang Mai would then become the capitol of what was left of Thailand. She thanked me, saying now she wasn't afraid, and went back to reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jocsum Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 :lol:They can't predict rain let alone earthquakes. So true. They seem to do a good job most of the time (90 - 95%) up here in Khon Kaen. They are on a par with Accuweather and other weather services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazygreg44 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Unbeliebl: The Meteorological Department assured that a quake, if occurring in the Andaman Sea, would have little impacts on Thailand. A tsunami, if occurring in the Pacific, can only be caused by the movement of the underwater fault line lying west of the Philippines. They forgotten allready Tsunami 2005 what took a reason in the Andaman sea ? And they are waiting for the 2nd part of the falt breaking ... But imagine about a Tsunami going into Bangkok Bay ... Habe a nice Day - but until now really only birds and elefants can feel a few minutes ago - and we lost the sense to hear to them ! German Greetings A Tsunami rolling into the Bangkok Bay won t ever happen ! Reason is, the Bay of Bangkok is much too shallow over a long distance to allow a wave to build up. Tsunamis need deep sea for a start and then a sudden, steep rise in seafloor, in order to build and grow. This cannot happen effectively in shallow waters. Remember, the Bangkok bay is a mere 20 - 25 meters in depth in most parts. What can happen and has happened in the past, is a major Tsunami hitting Koh Chang and the Trat coast , triggered from a volcano blast in the Indonesian archipelagos. It happened in the 19 th century when the Krakatao blast occured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roachiebkk Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 (edited) I like how it's the weather department warning of an earthquake. It doesn't matter which Thai Govt department makes the warning because they all use the same numerology charts and green parrots and fan chan sticks.

Navalator Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I heard about this from my GF more than a week ago. I said, no one has ever predicted an earthquake. They make predictions for that one may happen in the next twenty years or more, even those don't come true. Growing up in California, I've felt many earthquakes! You never know they're coming until you hear and feel them! I grew up in California also and not even Cal Tech can predict earthquakes. Stupid people love to spread rumors.

chmiroau Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Um, if the Thai fortune tellers were real, why are they working at all. Wouldn't they just pick the right lotto numbers and retire in luxury? The thing that scares me the most about these snake oil peddlers, is that they have a huge base of believing customers. Please don't make them angry, who knows what they could achieve if they all got together? Predicting earthquakes, so far not possible, sort of. The only scientifically proven method of predicting earthquakes has been watching and noting the restless behaviour of animals able to hear infra-sound, elephants ect. The main problem with this is that they give real-time warnings, as the quake is happening, so you don't really have much time to react. As for HAARP, this is a huge radio antenna first invented by the Russians and is designed to transmit extremely strong radio waves toward the atmosphere. Its affects are sketchy and probably hard to prove, but are believed to affect weather by heating up parts of the atmosphere directly above the transmitter. There is anecdotal evidence that this has occurred, however how this is supposed to affect the Earths crust, and plate tectonics I have no idea. Sounds like a huge amount of fertiliser to me. I seriously need an English spell checker, colour is spelt colour and spelt is spelt spelt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
