Note:
  1. 18570109 = 1/9/1857 (USA) = 9/1/1857 (UK) =1857Year, 1Month, 9Day (China)
  2. Day Order: Assume 18570109 =0, then 18810202 = 8790, etc.
  3. To insure a success of a 3-day Parkfield prediction, the maximum of 7333-8790, 7677-7333, 4473-7677 and 11708-4473 must be less than 3 at least.
  4. It may be wrong that five earthquakes happened at the same point exactly.
