Deepak Chopra claims responsibility for California earthquake
2010-04-06
The U.S. Geological Survey is blaming day-to-day seismological changes for Sunday's 7.2 earthquake along the U.S.-Mexico border. But Deepak Chopra, the famed alternative-medicine practitioner and transcendental meditation guru, is pretty sure he knows what really happened.

"Had a powerful meditation just now -- caused an earthquake in Southern California," Chopra wrote to his nearly 179,000 Twitter followers shortly after the quake. And then, to clarify: "Was meditating on Shiva mantra & earth began to shake," he tweeted. "Sorry about that."...
Me, I think that claim's a little, uh, shaky.

#10  DarthVader: Be careful what you say about him. Obama will likely appoint him Czar of something or other.

I hesitate to think what that "other" might be.

#9  I seem to recall that two people died in Sunday's earthquake. Does Mr. Chopra wish to be charged with murder or manslaughter?

#5  Then extradite Mr. Chopra to Mexico and let him explain to the quake victims why he collapsed their houses on them.

#4  The Shiva mantra eh? Isn't that what the guy in Temple of Doom was chanting as Kojack pulled out his heart and lowered him into the volcano?

"Om dom Shiva, Om dom Shiva, etc."
