> I wasn’t intentionally following up on Reg’s predictions. We felt a small jolt yesterday evening in Kaohsiung. I immediately wondered if perhaps it was the tail end of a larger jolt in the north of Taiwan. I found nothing online about the quake we’d just had. I also looked on Forumosa knowing that if the ground shook up north, someone would post about it. I concluded that it was just a small one and decided to look again on Reg’s site to see if he had predicted this one. Maybe I had missed something. That’s when I notice severe discrepancies.

You should have looked in the [url=[Taiwan Earthquakes 2011 - #46 by bismarck](http://tw.forumosa.com/t/taiwan-earthquakes-2011/62515/46) Earthquakes 2011[/url] thread.

But as we’ve already said, these 3-5 mag quakes happen almost everyday, most of which we don’t even feel. So predicting them isn’t exactly the height of fortunetelling.
