"Those damn things give me a headache'

I've been meaning to post a link to this story, but hadn't had a chance. A few weeks ago, we had over 100 micro-quakes underneath South Sister. A retired math teacher in Albany says that the earthquakes aren't over. Why? His headaches tell him so.

Retired math teacher Jerry Hurley of Albany believes the seismic rumbling isn't over beneath the bulge swelling the land at the South Sister volcano in the Central Oregon Cascades.

How does he know? His headaches tell him so -- and after 21 years charting the links between those headaches and earthquakes near and far, he's used to the snickers, chuckles or outright guffaws, but is quite serious about his tie to the Earth rumbling beneath our feet.

Apparently he's been getting these headaches for 20 years. The comments on the article are entertaining, and I'm with the comments: the guy sounds a bit loopy.

My headache history is over 40 years....I'm just now this year linking them to earthquakes. Latest was this week, nasty headache for 24 hrs, saw news tonight about Asian earthquake 8.5. I'd told co-worker on Wednesday "we're going to see a big quake within 72 hours or so". I need help in minimizing my symptoms and awful pain, also wish to participate in study or send notice of headaches which are predictors. I don;t have any idea where the quakes will be but intensity is noticeable.

Any comments or help greatly appreciated.

i have noticed that my sudden onset of headaches are alos 6-7 days before a large earthquake somewhere on the globe. this last bad one was april 23-24th. it was not near as excruciating or sickening as the one i had a week before christmas.

how to get rid of them?.... or how to pray through the pain for people.?..... i would like to know. all i can think of at the time of pain is ooohhh i want this to end, then when the quake happens a week later i feel ssoooo good.
