2009 Trends in Earthquake Prediction Science

We are nearly on the edge of science that can help us predict Earthquakes. The Japanese can alert their citizens of Earthquakes about 20-seconds prior to the shaking, no this is not a lot of time, but it may be enough time to help people get away from objects that might fall on them.
The news carried stories of elephants running for the hills prior to the big Tsunami, but how did they know this? Are they hardwired to feel these rumblings? Many have observed pets and animals exhibiting atypical behavior sometimes days before a big earthquake, what do they know that we do not and more importantly how do they know it?
What are the biological senses that allow for this? Is it just a factor of cataclysmic evolution, a through back, perhaps one that homo species once had, but has long forgotten with no chance of recovery now due to our over electronic world?
There were islander Indians on in Indonesia that ran for the hills, did they know something, are they more in touch with nature than we, did they observe their native animals and follow suit? What do they know that our modern science has over looked?
One of the newest discoveries was made by someone looking at satellite data and imagery information taken prior to large Earthquakes. Apparently, prior to larger Earthquakes frequencies not visible to the naked eye are observed, and another scientist found that temperatures increase slightly before Earthquakes also, these temperature increases can be seen in the infrared spectrum.
