What would you do?

Does lightning shake the earth when it strikes? Under special circumstances can it cause an earth quake? If you were to discover that you could predict earthquakes what would you do? How would you tell the public? How do you prove it to yourself? If it happens, how does it change your life? If you predict one, publish the fact, and it doesn’t happen, how does it affect you as an individual? What if a group determines that if they eliminate you, the quake will never happen? A book to answer those questions is being written, if I can ever determine the answers.
