Ah yes, good point. One that the Troubled Times group noted also.
Heres some quote from the Quake Patterns TOPIC:
http://www.zetatalk.com/theword/tword102.htm
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
As of March 17, 1998 Volcano World lists 53 active volcanos.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
The US Geological Survey reports that for the period of
January 1 though July 10 of 1999, the Earth had 16 quakes
of a 6.0 or greater magnitude. In that same period of 2000,
by comparison, we had 28 quakes of 6.0+ magnitude. ...
As you can see, there's been a sharp increase in quake
activity - nearly double - and it has gone unreported in the
press. Volcanic activity seems to be up too, also doubled. I
don't have quite as good a resource for this information as
the USGS, but the site I referenced is at least supported by
NASA. According to the information posted on this website,
we have the following upward trend occurring over the last
five years.
Year # Eruptions
1996 10
1997 13
1998 16
1999 14
2000 26 - so far (as of Aug 10, 2000)
As I understand it, this is counting only eruptions that
have begun in a particular year, not ones that have
continued through multiple years. The site I used for the
volcano info is:
