ENS 6: Expanding the plan, another error and, perhaps, an "attaboy"

More data is necessary and errors need to be corrected.  Over night I reasoned WD Gann built the prescient message "ens" (interpreted as the USGS Earthquake Notification Service) in his book, "The Tunnel Thru the Air," some 40 times, was to fully demonstrate the pattern of earthquakes according to his mathematic methods.  He is demonstrating a pattern so that we can measure it and apply it; so I imagine it.  Two extremely important words that, if one searched TTTTA on those two words ("measur_" without the 'e' and "pattern") you find nine interesting citations.

Yesterday, 16 earthquakes were researched to reach a conclusion that Mr. Gann  predicted earthquakes that followed the publication of TTTTA.  We need to parse that details of that conclusion.  As usual, I will reprise my many errors in that research, reconsider its basis and then reflect on the results.

First, there were 15 earthquakes, not 16.  Item 12, the March 14, 1903 earthquake, named by Wikipedia as the "1169 Aleppo earthquake," was another of the Excel errors.  The 1169 Aleppo earthquake happened in 1169, not 1903.  Yet I found "Mesopotam_a" (lacking the 'i') and somewhat supporting my conclusion that Mr. Gann foresaw future earthquake events.  This would seem to dispute that conclusion.  Embarrassed, I pondered that. 

In my defense, I phrased my evaluation of the data as having been disappointed that there were missing letters.  That I had expected each target word to have been spelled perfectly as the demonstration of foreknowledge.  But that was before I saw the message that was spelled:

i c u - Q U I C K - c u

There were 11 missing letters of which there were 5 unique letters; q u i c k.  Only 5.  Now, of the 9 missing letters we have 8 so the above message is lacking.  NEVERTHELESS, we still have the same 5 unique letters as there were 2 'i's and now there's 1.  We still have the word "quick."  And beyond that there are 5 and only 5 capitalized letters and they are "QUICK."  The message, in content, is not different from the original interpretation.  

And the message proves the foresight.  That, by far, is the evidence of foresight...not that each target word was spelled entirely correctly.  I do not know how to evaluate "cylinder" proximity with statistical methods as experts have evaluated The Bible Code.  In other words, are the letters close enough to one another to eliminate randomness when searching for a target word, as I did.  In fact, my finding the spelling of "Mesopotamia_a" proves words can be spelled out of enough random letters.  

I argue the persuasive evidence is NOT the spelling of the target word...it is that the absent letters spell the intelligible and relevant...and perhaps timely....message Q-U-I-C-K.  And those cap letters were not for emphasis.  They were capitalized letters that were absent.

So, we now have 15 observations of earthquakes (5 before the publication of TTTTA and 10 after) and yet there are 40 instances of 'ens' (21 times as 'ens' and 19 times as its vertical inversion, 'sne').  Did Mr. Gann intend us to find an additional 25 observations and, if so, why?  

Yes.  Because his intent, in my opinion, was not to simply prove his foresight...it was to provide the measurements of the pattern.  I'm pretty happy with the proof of foresight as presented but the mere presence of the 40 'ens' messages that cannot be correlated with the 15 physical and dated events indicates there is something more.  My instincts tell me the 'something more' is first the ultimate prediction of the event we expect "now" and "QUICK" as developed in the immediately preceding five essays.  And second, a clue, perhaps, to the ultimate mathematic methods.

So, I am expanding the plan.  In the immediately future essays the "plan" will be to supplement the "deadliest earthquakes" since June 22, 1848 (beginning of the MOT) with the most destructive (in dollars) earthquakes and then with the most powerful earthquakes, all according to Wikipedia listings.  Ideally, there will be 40 observations...   Simply stated, we need more data:

And what is the encoded word (in red below) we find surrounding, embracing if you will, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle on page 266?

[I find the numbers highlighted in yellow and bordering the paragraph, serendipitous, to say the least.  But that's me.]

The entire paragraph's narrative is very meaningful, at least to me in my moment of disappointment.  And that's not to mention the great Emerson's "Essay on Compensation."  I truly hope and trust some good comes of this work I so enjoy and that so challenges my imagination.  

Now to the drudgery of ferreting out the data.
