text:  A real earthquake prediction, you need to have when, where, how big, and you should give probability. So we lick the when, in many cases, with the tides. So as to the where and how big, you rely upon the local effects. We know what the tides are going to be years ahead of time. So then as we approach those critical periods, we should look at the animals, the water levels. You know, your water well may turn artesian just before a quake. Really? It may change its temperature, yeah.
