The effect of the thousands of humming boxes placed along fault lines and plate borders can be seen in several incidents that have occurred since the start of the 7 of 10 plate movements. The lack of tsunami during the 7 of 10 sinking of the Sunda Plate is one such example. We predicted at the start of the 7 of 10 scenarios in late 2010 that the Sunda Plate sinking would occur within 2-3 weeks, yet it dragged on through 2011. At the time we had predicted tsunami on the Sunda Plate, in general equivalent in height to the loss of elevation for a coastline. None of this occurred due to the slower pace.
 The pace of mountain building in S America, where slowed, has still
      resulted in rumpling up and down the Andes, and stretch zone accidents
      likewise in lands to the east of the Andes. The shape of S America has
      clearly changed. Will the islands in the Caribbean be spared? At some
      point, as with the magnitude 7.9 quake in Acapulco on March 2, 2012 a
      significant adjustment will need to occur, and this will include
      depressing the Caribbean Plate so it tilts, sinking the islands and lands
      on that portion of the plate to the degree predicted. But the S American
      roll will likely continue to avoid the magnitude 8 quakes we originally
      predicted in deference to slow rumpling mountain building. The African
      roll was anticipated to be a silent roll in any case, so the slowed pace
      would not affect the outcome. 
      
      Will the slowed pace prevent the 7 of 10 scenarios for the Northern
      Hemisphere? Bowing of the N American continent has reached the point of
      pain, with breaking rock booming from coast to coast, but still there have
      been no significant quakes in the New Madrid area. Yet this is past due,
      and cannot be held back indefinitely. What has and will continue to occur
      for the Northern Hemisphere scenarios are silent quakes for Japan, which
      has already experienced drastic subduction under the north island of
      Hokkaido where mountain building is occurring as a rumple rather than a
      jolt. However, the anticipated New Madrid adjustment cannot be achieved
      without trauma. But this could potentially occur in steps and stages such
      that any European tsunami would be significantly lessened.
