Jennifer Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 Wow, thanks guys. It is a combined effort. The fishkeepers in this community are so generous and helpful - not to mention they are gannets for all things fishy so there is plenty of equipment out there!

Jennifer Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 :tears: :tears: mmm but the 4.6 we just had was a bit too close for comfort. The whole country is shaking! It knocked over my cuppa. :-? Just some more kudos from today. Thanks to Donna for the time in the garage tonight. That was great. Thanks to Alan yet again - this time for the fishfood and heaters. Thanks to Navarre for helping to move the turtle tank, that will surely come in handy for its new inhabitants that are sure to arrive at any moment. Another lot of thanks to bdspider for going so far out of her way to drop off some hidey holes today, and the chat - I so needed that opportunity to down tools for a while! Also thanks to Nicky from Animates head office who offered to supply any equipment or supplies that are needed to care for the incoming reptiles and fish.

Deepsound Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 At least two time capsules have been discovered underneath earthquake damaged Christchurch with the mayor so thrilled by the discovery it was "like he'd won the lottery". (...) Irishman John Robert Godley is known as the "Founder of Canterbury" even though he lived there for only two-and-a-half years. http://www.stuff.co.nz/the-press/news/4717754/Christchurch-earthquake-capsules-like-winning-the-lottery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deepsound Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 According to you, is there a possible link between the earthquake and the 107 whales found beached at Mason Bay ? In february 2010, 28 pilot whales have been found dead after a stranding at a remote Stewart Island beach. Chilean earthquake occurred off the coast on February 27, 2010 (magnitude of 8.8 ). The previous stranding happening in 2003, when almost 160 died. Someone remember when it was exactly ? (*) Because a particularly destructive earthquake happened in Iran in december 2003. I'm just thinking aloud. [Edit] (*) found --> 16 November 2003: 12 sperm whales die after stranding on Auckland's west coast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Extremely unlikely to be anything other than a coincidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deepsound Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Dunno... Another one I found. Over 200 cetaceans come ashore on the beaches of Australia and New Zealand in december 2004. An undersea megathrust earthquake occurred on Sunday, December 26, 2004, with an epicentre off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zev Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 You guys should read a book called 'The Swarm' by Frank Schätzing - I have it somewhere if anyone wants to borrow it, but I warn you, the first half is good, the second half is drivel...

alanmin4304 Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 You have to admire the Japanese. If Japan is subjected to a lot of earthquakes and they are obviously caused by the whales then they don't just muck about and sit on their hands complaining. They go out to exterminate them.

livingart Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 maybe we need a separate topic on extremely low frequency (ELF) waves and the known affect on whales and dolphins, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So may be we should inform Paul Watson about that probability. Dr Ira, would you do that please ? ps : you're right Living Art. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Ken Ring would say it's all related - moon pulling on things because it is closer to the earth at perigee + water + magnetic fields or something... he had something on his site about dolphins or whales at one point. I don't think animals are immune to the effects of the moon anymore than humans and plants are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
