POPSChina bloggers cook up quake conspiracies In the city of Mianzhu, 60 miles from the epicentre, bloggers pointed to reports just weeks before the earthquake of a mass migration of more than one million butterflies. Other bloggers seized upon an as yet unsubstantiated rumour that a Chinese geologist had predicted the earthquake in advance but had been stifled by the authorities, and by fear. "On the seventh of May, a geologist predicted this ," wrote one blogger. "But he didn't dare make it public." Another blogger from Beijing wrote: “Everyone is talking about the rescue effort but they are not actually joining it. “So, instead we should turn our thoughts to why didn’t forecast the earthquake and evacuate the people... “Could it be that it was out of a desire for a peaceful Olympics?”
