A consiracy theory of my own devise

America is bogged down in their 21st century Vietnam.
The American public is growing tired of witnessing the count of theirs sons
(kids) dying each night on the evening news.
America decides to use their nuclear and geophysical knowledge, to secret a
device near the junction of tectonic plates, thereby unleashing a 'natural'
phenomena to overwhelm the general populace.
This would have the twofold effect of uniting the disenfranchised and
diverting attention away from the new Vietnam.
Paranoia?

No.
First of all, the mass of a techtonic plate is such that
every nuclear device on the planet couldn't move it an
inch. So the assumption is that the nuke or nukes would
be placed at a high compression/tension/torsion point to
get things rolling. This doesn't work either:
Faults are not single rifts, even where plates meet.
Instead, a better model would be to lay a sheet of glass
on the floor, then break it with a hammer, while keeping
it reasonably together. Then lay another sheet on top
of it, and break it, too, in a different place, then do
the same to 48 other sheets, one at a time.
You end up with a pile of broken glass with each layer
*generally* from the same sheet. Now, you can add all
sorts of pushes and pulls and twists to the sheet, but
it is next to impossible to determine where enough strain
is building in the pile, so that by giving it a nudge, the
glass *on that layer* would move a skoonch more or sooner
than it would have, otherwise.
Now, a techtonic plate only differs from an earthquake
fault by having the equivalent of *two* piles of broken
glass pushing against each other sideways, causing a
general movement of one of the piles up, and the other
down. But you still have no idea when or where 'jumps'
rather than smooth motion will occur.
This is why "Richter Scale" measurement of earthquakes is
so different from the damage they inflict. Richter Scale
just measures the *width* of an earthquake.
A different scale measures the *depth* of an earthquake
(using the previous model, think of say, sheet #33 of
glass is the one that is causing the movement, and if any
other sheet or pieces of glass are moving, it is because
they are being pushed/pulled/twisted by #33.) An earthquake
that happens on the surface has much greater potential for
damage than does one 25 km deep.
Last but not least, it matters what *direction* an
earthquake is moving, and the type of rock on the surface
layers, where the damage people are concerned with happens.
If the earthquake forces are not pointed "up", their force
will be dissipated in other direction, causing risk only
in *their* ability to trigger *other* earthquakes. They
*do* have enough energy, unlike nukes.
And if the surface is rocky, much more of the force will
be transmitted than if it is broken, or sandier.

If I had one of those tectonic plate movers I could stop driving
altogether. If I needed to visit, say, Texas, I'd just shift my
tectonic plate down there. Wouldn't even have to leave my house.
Heck, you can't hardly blame The Conspiracy for wanting to test-drive
their mad scientists' latest gizmos.

The hippies are a menace in the form of an anachronism,
a noisy reminder of values gone sour and warped...of the
painful contradictions in a society conceived as a monument
to "human freedom" and "individual rights," a nation in
which all men are supposedly "created free and equal"...a
nation that any thinking hippy will insist has become a
fear-oriented "warfare state" that can no longer afford
to tolerate even the minor aberrations that go along
with "individual freedom". -Hunter S. Thompson

Yes, but as long as Halliburtan and Nectal can keep a 500% mark up, the war
shall go on!

If you notice, the US killed are becoming page 2 news. Ho Hum, two GI 's
killed, OH! a sale at Penny's!

No need for all that expense. Since the con now controls all media outlets, the
news can now be "enhanced" for your viewing enjoyment.

"Phenomena" is the plural form of "phenomenon," so the correct use would
be "a 'natural' phenomenon."
The title of this thread should correctly read "A conspiracy theory of
my own devising." "Conspiracy," not "consiracy," and "devising," not "devise."

More people were killed in Vietnam
than live in the entire city of Baghdad.
I'm talking out of my ass, but I'd bet on it.

If we go into Iran and they kill hundreds of our troops with TOW Missiles. will

It IS scary when you stop to consider what they've already
done with those roadside IUD's! They've killed or wounded
some 10% of the invaders already.
