No need to check the SST maps as the NEIC list is showing plenty of
quakes with magnitudes of 5M and over, this last week or so. Things are back on course and the Weatherlawyer code of conduct for UK's weather is on stream. I wonder if there will be fewer events in the New Activity section oif the Smithsonian's lists of vulcanicity. Now all we need is some bright spark to analyse the works of genius and give relative values for the vocanic outputs over the last few months. It can then be referred back to yours truly for further innovative jurisprudence. (The nice thing about excellence is that one's work must stand, despite the monkeys rattling their cages and attmpting to shake a screw loose. (Not that I have any reward in seeing them fall apart.)) |

You do realise that it's between me and you, the heady position for the most disliked poster, you do know that; dont you? |

No, what I am really interested in is cause and effect, not farts from the past. Take for example the coffee cup effect of volcanics: "The ear, has a settling time. It cannot perceive pitch unless a tone persists for some minimum duration. For example, a 100Hz tone must persist 0.04 seconds, or 4 cycles, before we discern its pitch. A tone of 1000Hz must persist for about 0.013 seconds, or for about 13 cycles. Lesser persistence sounds more like a click, scratch, static, or something, but not a pure tone. So, the pitch that an oscilloscope displays is not necessarily what an ear hears." http://www.kilty.com/coffee.htm Now convert that to the pictures a siesmograph displays when an earthquake occurs. A lump of rock so many miles underground is the focal point of what the geologists spit consider the epicentre. Wherever it really is, the chances are that it contains ...within how many acres of strata ... so much trapped gas. Given the temperatures and pressures involved under certain circumstances, we know that some of that rock liquidises and reaches a state at which a certain harmonic affects it. (Think pietzo-electrics if you are stymied with the intelect of a Yawnrence Junkforbrains or a ****head Silly.) For all we know, when the NAO reaches a certain pitch all this trapped gas is aggressively attacked by the seismic waves ordinarily released as earthquakes. The rest is natural history. Who can say different? Speak up. Welsh or USAan I don't give a stuff for the dimwits that would have me silenced. No more than that fairy with the silly ideas about lunar phases all being the same. I couldn't care less about them. This is usenet. If you can't argue with facts I suppose you are free to argue personalities. I have one of them. All others bow before me. Especially dimwits like the two aforesaid thickos. I am either right or wrong whatever they say. As it happens, every time I have been wrong so far this year, I have managed to learn a lot more than they will ever know -if you measure their complete knowledges between them. So on with it all I say. Ignore me and/or abuse me at your peril, not mine. It's not hard. Not at 600 degrees Centigrade it ain't: If a glass cylinder is filled nearly completely with water and tapped on the bottom, one can detect the lowest longitudinal mode of the water column, for which the height of the water column is one-quarter wavelength. If the cylinder is rapidly filled with hot tap water containing dissolved air, the pitch of that mode may descend by nearly three octaves during the first few seconds as the air comes out of solution and forms bubbles. Then the pitch gradually rises as the bubbles float to the top.. ©1982 American Association of Physics Teachers. http://scitation.aip.org/getabs/serv...cvips&gifs=yes Eat my czjd you *******! |

There is an interesting discussion about volcanoes venting CO2 on the newsgroup to which I originally posted this thread. And to be honest I was expecting to get a bite out of Felix and his ilk there with the OP. I notice there was nothing logical offered in evidence against what I wrote. (There seldom is, no doubt because those in the know don't wish to dirty themselves. Or because I am right but outlandish.) There must be plenty of counter point. I just haven't come across it yet. I seldom read your posts as you don't interest me and your humour at best, is banal but I thought I'd better put you out of anyone else's misery by telling you this. All I wrote about the NAO and volcanoes recently was stuff I opened up for conversation. You don't seem to have grasped the meaning of newsgroups as a format for discussions. However, you are not as bad as Felix Tilley, who sees himself as an Alan Schwartz type clone whose only reason for existing is to remember sthe Alamo/s Northridge and to proclaim that unusual perspectives are the territory of fools. And proclaim it incessantly. (Swartz aka Uncle Al inhibits other Sci newsgroups and tells inexperienced posters and various other people who wish to discuss "on topic" postings, that they aught to limit themselves to Google and not bother him.) |

Actually, I never wrote the above. But don't let it worry you overly. Nonsense. Neither of you is in my killfile - yet. Jim Lillie As it happens, the question is only marked as such by the question mark at the end of the jumble of words. Reading between the lines as it were, he seems to be inferring to a set to that we never had. Or at least one I am unaware of -possibly through ignorance. What the "it" is, that is between his self and I remains to be explained. Still iit was quite an interesting little spat while it lasted, with at least one positive outcome. Do you have any thoughts on the matter of the actual thread subject, or might that be pushing it a bit? |

(The nice thing about excellence is that one's work must stand, despite the monkeys rattling their cages and attempting to shake a screw loose.

There below me lie the plains of Scholar with it's once fertile ground now full of sheep.... And I realise that for a decent snowfall in season, in the United Kingdom, we need to have a negative North Atlantic Oscillation. IIRC an east wind is involved and ... ....ah, my sight isn't what it once was... But there again I had eggs of two species in the one basket in those days. And at these heights... At the moment and looking foreward a shorter distance: http://www.westwind.ch/?link=ukmb,ht...racknell+13 2 seems to indicate that on Tuesday the present situation will transport its system over to northen Scandinavia. It's cause has already produced a Mag 6.8 'quake and I think it may yield a 7 plus before the skies clear to make way for this spell to shine. (Look for a change of mind on the charts by then.) I rather think it will be a Scandinavian High, or at least, those ominous Lows will disappear. If they don't, it will be interesting to see if they produce -or rather continue, alongside-stroke-with a large case of upset volcanoes around whenever. I wonder if there is any link to the way that hurricanes jump seas in this switchover to the positive side of the force. Whatever: May the farce be with all those who have negative vibes. |
