Re: EARTHQUAKE LIGHTS

I agree that earthquakes are electromagnetic, and that monitoring EM fields will one day yield reliable earthquake warnings, perhaps days in advance. But Mathis' assertions here are just attribution, not explanation — he cites evidence of EM forces, but he doesn't show how those forces are up to the task. A magnitude 8 earthquake releases 6.3e+16 joules of energy, yet the EM fields associated with quakes require extremely sensitive equipment, and sophisticated algorithms to distinguish the quake signals from background noice, especially from the local electric power grid. Think about that for a second. Do high-power electric transmission lines cause earthquakes? If not, why not? The induced waves in the Earth are more powerful than those registered during quakes. So something doesn't make sense about the assertion that EM waves cause earthquakes.
 
I'm of the opinion that quakes are caused by electric currents inside the Earth, in response to changing degrees of ionization. For more detail, see Earthquakes, but the basic idea is that the interior of the Earth is ionized due to being under extreme pressure, but the degree of ionization can change as the Earth's crust flexes, and internal pressures change. The result is electric currents. In an earthquake, more flexing is going on, due to increased crustal deformation, and currents flowing through microcracks generate unbelievable pressures via ohmic heating.
