I found an article on the web: AN EVALUATION OF THE ANIMAL-BEHAVIOR THEORY For Earthquake Prediction <BR/>By RAND B. SCHAAL, a geologist at the U. of California, Davis. This was published in a journal called California Geology in 1988. The article is supposed to have figures accompanying it, but the copy on the web has no figures. Our local library doesn't have copies of this journal. The poor reference librarian worked really hard but was ultimately unsuccessful.<BR/><BR/>I'm telling you this because I have to do a short presentation on this article. It would be nice to have the figures, but I've given up hope.<BR/><BR/>Feel free to ignore this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685011.post-60053645258307266912007-02-22T14:50:00.000-05:002007-02-22T14:50:00.000-05:00I am heroic couplets.I'm half-way through rereadin...I am heroic couplets.<BR/><BR/>I'm half-way through rereading Harry Potter #5.
