Subject: SOLAR ACTIVITY VS. EARTHQUAKES


A friend sent me a portion of a newsletter form the Space and Science =
Research Center, apparently a private concern out of Florida.  The =
report dealt primarily with prediction of agricultural production vs =
sunspot activity.  But what caught my eye was the statement: "After =
studying 300-plus years of data, an SSRC study also found decreased =
solar activity had an 80.6% correlation with increased volcanic =
activity, and 100% correlation with essentially all of the largest U. S. =
earthquakes."
I had never heard of such an analogy.  Is this make believe?
