I had read this article too. Very interesting. Alot of important research on the cause of earthquakes, both natural and man-made using Tesla technology employed by governments.

This is about how little we know about things in nature. We still know nothing about nacreous clouds over Antarctica, yet ozone holes have been attributed to CFCs ...emitted in the Northern Hemisphere.
