In re: A Golden Star Book of Poems

I am currently incorporating a list of some thirty-seven different poems within my “A Golden Star Book of Poems” which includes among other topics my forthcoming novella from a purely “poetic alchemist’s” perspective. According to my publisher in New York it will be ready on Amazon within three months from now. Stay tuned!

Prediction Limits

Even with modern geodesy and catalogs, reliable short-term, site- specific earthquake prediction (exact place and size) is not yet achievable under the current science (Minnesota State).With the coming of quantum computers in the next twenty years from now, the odds will most definitely increase substantially.Until then, we are at the mercy of Mother Nature.

Further Scientific Analysis Regarding the Tipping Point in Oil Volume Depletion at the Anticline Crest

There isn’t a single, universal depletion percentage that guarantees failure. A “tipping point” emerges when local conditions push the reservoir-fault system past its frictional stability.In practice, this happens when reduced pore pressure from production and mechanical compaction at the anticline crest elevate effective stresses and stress contracts enough to promote slip on nearby faults. The […]

Sequel post after November, 2024

And in spite of all this, Michael learned that the Environmental Defense Center in Santa Barbara had filed a $7 million wrongful death claim against the state of California, et. al. Oh, the injustice of it all! This should someday be made into a film documentary!

Short-Story Sequel Post November, 2024:A UC Santa Barbara student does indeed sustain a laceration to his neck while diving into the waves at Haskell’s Beach. First responders find the victim deceased amongst a pool of outflowing blood. Congressional investigations are soon commenced shortly thereafter to determine who is criminally responsible for this brazen and arrogant […]

When the Pitas-Point ruptures, it directly effects the Red Mountain due to the laddered geomorphology. The Ventura fault can cause a much stronger shaking and much more damage–perhaps even an M7, exacerbated by the declining volume in the oil fields. As stated earlier, it is not a matter of “if,” but simply, “when.”

Finally, let us address ourselves now to the Ventura Pitas-Point fault running under the city of Ventura and out into the Santa Barbara Channel parallel to Santa Barbara. Running parallel to Pitas-Point is the Red Mountain Fault closer to SB underneath the Dos Cuadras oil fields, The Pitas-Point line is deeper, but there is a […]
