Can This Scientist Predict Earthquakes?
Michael Janitch (from St. Louis Missouri) is an independent scientist who has been researching / teaching topics related to geophysics. He also claims he can predict earthquakes.
Janitch, also known online as ‘Dutchsinse’ has been humorously described as a ‘conspiracy theorist’ by some due to the controversial nature of the subject matter,
The following is an extract from his website:
“Dutchsinse has discovered and proven the ability to forecast earthquakes using various tools, and methods to check on seismic activity. Since 2010, Dutchsinse has found a pattern and progressive movement in seismic activity across the globe. He has been able to forecast where earthquakes are likely to strike by looking at previous movement while comparing to “silent zone fulcrum points”. He has also worked out a way to calculate magnitudes to strike within each “silent zone” at its fulcrum. Dutchsinse has been described by many viewers (and critics) as 85{154653b9ea5f83bbbf00f55de12e21cba2da5b4b158a426ee0e27ae0c1b44117} accurate in a weeks forecast.”
Janitch helpfully provides readers with free software that can be used to test his science:
EARTHQUAKE 3D SOFTWARE
What is EQ3D?
EQ3D (Earthquake 3D) is a downloadable software of an interactive 3D globe which works on most PC’s and mobile devices.
Earthquake3D features live feeds from various seismic agencies shown realtime, visually on a globe. The software has been created by Richard Wolton at http://www.wolton.net/
Where can I get EQ3D?
Visit: http://www.earthquake3d.com/
A free copy can be downloaded or the enhanced version for about $20.
What do the red and white rings mean?
The darker the red ring means the older the earthquake shown up to 7 days old. White is within the past day.
What are the numbers?
The numbers above the rings indicate earthquake magnitude (M0.0 to M9.9 range)
What does the green highlight mean on the magnitude number?
The green placemark indicates the most recent reported earthquake.
What does the blue highlight mean on the magnitude number?
This is the last earthquake which Dutchsinse clicked on for research.
Which are deep earthquakes on EQ3D
Deep earthquakes are shown raised high of the globe.

Why don’t you do text updates?
Dutch has done text work on his websites but his website then got blocked, shut down, and even listed as a threat on the DHS website at one point. This has lead to a real time live stream where daily forecasts are posted directly to the world with little interference possible from outside sources.
Videos are too long. 🙂 Why?
Each location on the planet receives at least 5-10 minutes of coverage. Since there are at least 6 continents which need daily coverage, the daily update usually takes between 40min to 60min depending on daily activity.
YOU CAN FAST FORWARD any video to see the regional update for your location.
You can skip to what is relevant to your area but take into account that studying the whole globe will help you see what is coming your direction from across the planet. Each nights detailed explanations are designed to benefit viewers knowledge while doing their own research.
I missed the live update and it wasn’t recorded. Can I still see it?
There are 3 ways, Visit Dutchsinse’s You Tube Channel to see if he has uploaded it, Or try Coppertropicals’s channel. Lastly if you load the live stream, you can scroll back the past 3 hours. http://www.dutchsinse.live
We encourage PSI readers to sample the software for themselves and provide some open peer review by way of reporting back here any comments in the ‘comments’ section below.

Have you checked out Ben Davidson’s site. https://quakewatch.net/
Home of the study of pre-seismic signals, and the practice of earthquake forecasting. The Earthquake Prediction Center at QuakeWatch.net is a division of SpaceWeatherNews and is supported by the collective of more than 300,000 “Suspicious0bservers”. While informational only (not actionable) at this time, this is the beginning of useful earthquake forecasting of damaging events.

This guy Janitch should get together with ex- NASA engineer John L. Casey, who wrote Dark Winter, predicting a coming cold period relating to low Solar magnetic activity (sunspot numbers).
He’s on the earthquake trail.
