Since when have earthquakes been increasing every year?
A magazine clipping from the early 1970s noted that earthquake incidents were already multiplying every year, and the context states they have continued doing so ever since. Therefore, the observed yearly increase dates back at least to the early 1970s.
Les explains that he kept a clipping from a magazine dating back to the early 1970s. At that time, the incidents of earthquakes were already multiplying every year, and he says they have been doing so ever since. He also notes that many earthquakes happen daily and that the press does not bother reporting them except for the strongest ones. He ties this to a complete upset of normal weather patterns worldwide and calls it a foreboding of the trials and tribulations the world has ahead. In his view, we are in the closing seconds of this age.
