There's going to be an earthquake there measuring very high on the scale. Many will die. It will occur by the end of the month. 26/27

How do you know?

The end of this month is the 31st, not the 26 or 27.

Predicting an earthquake in California is a pretty safe prediction.

What's philosophical about this?

Correctly predicting a large quake within a few days' time window would be very remarkable. Doing it twice would get you a Nobel prize and all the grant money you could want. So I say let's sticky this and check back on the 1st of February. >

He didn't say THIS month, he said THE month. Kinda open-ended, don't you think?

Wow, drive by psychic predictions. Interesting

As in the year 26/27, day, blah, blah.

Here's my prediction!

- the moon will reveal itself to be a huge sleeping spacecraft full of aliens waiting for us to fill our atmosphere with enough C02 to make them comfortable - 6535/765

Give him a chance.

I think the most obvious interpretation of this is the 26th or 27th of this month. If someone came in and said "There's a party at the end of the month" or "A rally" or whatever, you wouldn't all put your sceptic hat on and say "That gives us no info!". You'd assume lots.

End of this month.
26th or 27th of January 2006.
There will be an earthquake above 6.0 on the Richter scale.
In California.
Many people will die.

So how about this. On the end of the 27th. Check CNN.com.
If the front page is about an earthquake in California: He wins. If not: He loses.

Not neccessarily a prophet though until he does it a couple more times.

(With more specific details please).
