Are these related?

I remember reading Feng Shui masters claimed that China will have another problem before Olympics. And these came from different sources, from two different well know feng shui masters. I was kind of like, wow, did these guys discussed and agreed before hand. Anyway, it was one of those things which I read and “toss”.
Today, I read about the report of Guang Dong Astronomy Association talking about possibility of the sun, moon and earth positions causing the earthquake on 12 May, and warned about another potential problem day on the 3rd June 2008. Guang Dong Astronomy Association sure sounds more credible than “feng shui master”.
Two powerful astronomical tides
According to the Guangdong Astronomy Association, the relevant authorities need to pay attention to two powerful astronomical tides in early June.
One will appear at 21:00 on June 3, 2008, a point when the distance between the moon and the earth, at only 357,251 km, is the shortest since Nov 11, 2007. The other will take place at 03:23 on June 4, 2008, when the moon, the sun, and the earth are on the same line. Normally there would be a significant interval between such events. In this case, however, it was no more than 6 hours. Thus a consolidated astronomical tide will be formed, possibly producing a significant impact on atmospheric, oceanic, and solid tides of the earth. After the 8.0 magnitude Wenchuan quake, the tectonic plates were dislocated, and energy release through aftershocks has not fully dissipated the tension.
They also provided time and dates in their report. Hmmm hope that they are proven wrong. Even if they are proven “right” (touch wood), it is still great leap forward in earth quake prediction? Perhaps we are not learning to do what had been done by Zhu Ge Liang and company? Watch the skies???? There are quiet a bit of stories about earthquake clouds too.
