You Mean To Tell Me That They Cannot Measure the Tera Joules

Too many variables, too little known.  

A lot of unknowns isn't a problem if you have enough equations.

And ice cream has no bones.

How about stating the obvious?

The after shocks are coming every few seconds for hours on end.
There must be tera bytes of information in those waves.

If a formation is compressing over time then it might be possible to
know the displacement to the nearest cm.

And seismic activity, especially in the Western US, has been heavily
instrumented and monitored for decades now.

No method to date to do predictions based on history.

What is there about "too little known" that you don't understand?

All the same.

Displacement, no. There is no absolute zero mark, except your IQ.
