The seas, lakes and oceans are now pluming deadly hydrogen sulfide and suffocating methane. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic water-soluble heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas. Methane is slightly more buoyant than normal air and so will be all around, but will tend to contaminate our atmosphere from the top down. These gases are sickening and killing oxygen-using life all around the world, including human life, as our atmosphere is increasingly poisoned. Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.
The month of February was eventful in terms of underground explosions and fires. Hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas and will seek out the lowest-lying areas it can get to, which means underground facilities are obviously going to be vulnerable. It is also reactive with copper, especially 'hot' copper with a charge running through it. Many of our copper-using electrical facilities are underground. The consequence is a rising number of fires and explosions breaking out in underground facilities. Here are the notable related events from February 2013:
2013-02-26 - Massive underground fire erupts in mine at Daw Mill Colliery in Warwickshire (Britain):

Quote: "Firefighters discovered thick black smoke and flames inside the manhole. As firefighters began moving pedestrians from the scene, another manhole about 175 feet away, near the intersection of Jefferson and Mason streets, blew up. 'It obliterated the asphalt,' Lipski said in an interview at the scene at 7:30 p.m. Asphalt chunks littered the street where pavement was heaved up like it had been punched from underneath."
2013-02-09 - Underground explosion blows two manholes off in coastal Manhattan (New York):
http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/manhole-explosion-fire-manhattan-madison-avenue--190538871.html
Note: This is becoming quite the regular thing. Hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas so it will flow into basements, sewers, underground electrical facilities, underground car parks, etc. It is also highly flammable and it is reactive with copper, so fires like this are to be expected. Also, methane may be bubbling up from below ground in coastal areas as the methane hydrate deposits around the world continue to dissociate and methane is also flammable, though not reactive with copper...

2013-02-28 - Mysterious explosion rattles homes in the Tuscon area (Arizona):
http://azstarnet.com/news/local/tucson-atwitter-over-loud-boom-tonight/article_9087a8ac-8155-11e2-807a-001a4bcf887a.html
http://www.tucsonnewsnow.com/story/21419976/what-was-that-shook-tucson
Note: There have been many mysterious explosions shaking homes in the last year, all over the world. These explosions are very likely caused by flammable atmospheric hydrogen sulfide and/or methane plumes detonating. Eventually these explosions will probably be equal in destructive power to a small thermonuclear explosion, like that which devastated Hiroshima, but minus the radiation. (Unless one of these explosions wipes out a nuclear reactor, in which case there'll be a radiation problem too.)
2013-02-28 - Major brush fire erupts in the Santa Ana River bottom in Riverside County (California), evacuations ensue:

Note: Yeah, well, I don't think trash being blocked for a few days would generate enough methane for an explosion, because if it could then you'd see trash dumps and dumpsters exploding constantly. Are they aware in India that our atmosphere is filling up with explosively flammable methane gushing from dissociating methane hydrate deposits all over the world? Cuz that's sort of an important fact to be aware of, at least if you live on Planet Earth and you're one of those wanna-keep-living type of people...

2013-02-27 - Electrical panel explodes into flame at home in coastal San Jose (California), 2 electricians critically burned:
http://www.mercurynews.com/breaking-news/ci_22683102/electricians-remain-critical-after-san-jose-fire
Note: Electrical panels are frequently located in basements which is where a heavier-than-air gas like hydrogen sulfide will tend to accumulate. Hydrogen sulfide is also reactive with copper, especially 'hot' copper with a charge running through it, like the wires on electrical panels. This explosive 'flash fire' seems quite similar to the many underground electrical fires and explosions happening lately in cities and towns everywhere...

http://statter911.com/2013/02/26/raw-video-fire-in-electricians-van-to-mahwah-nj-home/
Quote: "According to Police Chief Jim Batelli, an electrician installing a generator in the house had parked in the driveway near the home’s garage. After 1 p.m., he heard a popping noise, and saw that his van was fully engulfed in flames..."
Note: Popping noises have been heard at the site of many of the recent fires as they erupt. That sound is probably smallish gas plumes, hydrogen sulfide or methane or both, igniting after finding an ignition source. An ignition source isn't necessarily a flame either: hydrogen sulfide is reactive with numerous chemicals and rusty iron/steel and copper, among other things. The copper reactivity problem is likely the cause of many of the non-running vehicles spontaneously combusting these days in peoples' garages or driveways, boats at dock or on trailers, RVs and buses in storage lots or depots, vehicles inside auto shops, etc.

Note: Story also mentions multiple chimney fires and a shed fire, stretching firefighting resources thin. I've mentioned that chimneys are a potential vulnerability. The stacks may get hot enough to ignite any passing flammable hydrogen sulfide and/or methane gas plumes, or hot particulates blowing out of them may do the same thing. Also, the covers over chimneys are designed to keep fluid (water) out, but they won't keep gases out. I'm not gonna focus on chimney fires, because there have always been some, but if you want to take the time and look for yourself, you'll see that it's clearly a rising problem...

2013-02-25 - Multiple cars go up in flames at junkyard in Flinn Springs (California):
http://www.utsandiego.com/news/2013/feb/25/junkyard-fire-flinn-springs/
Note: Hydrogen sulfide is reactive with rusty iron/steel, and also with copper, especially 'hot' copper with a charge going through it. In this case, it being a junkyard, I'd suspect the rusty iron/steel problem. Not coincidentally, there've been lots of junkyard fires and fires involving piles of metal bursting into flame in the last year or two...

http://www.manchesterjournal.com/local/ci_22663197/apparent-sandgate-explosion-rattles-baffles-residents
Note: These mysterious explosions being heard and felt around the world are very likely gas plumes - hydrogen sulfide or methane or both - igniting and detonating. If the explosion happens high in the air then people see a flash of light, if anyone is watching. When the plumes explode closer to the ground then the ground itself shakes. Eventually these explosions may be equivalent in destructive power to small thermonuclear blasts and destroy entire towns or portions of cities, like the blast that destroyed Hiroshima but minus any radiation...

http://monrovia.patch.com/articles/electrical-explosion-buckles-street-forces-evacuation-of-world-vision#photo-13424121
Note: Lots of underground electrical explosions lately. Hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas and will seep down into underground facilities. Hydrogen sulfide is also reactive with copper, especially 'hot' copper with a charge going through it, and it is explosively flammable. Also, California (and the entire North American West Coast) is downwind of the giant dead zone known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, which is surely pluming hydrogen sulfide now...

http://www.buffalonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20130223/CITYANDREGION/130229597/1010
Quote: "Two more fires ripped through Buffalo homes on Saturday, which brings the total to six over the past two days and includes one death, at least three dozen people displaced and $630,000 in damage."
Quote: "And four second alarms within about 28 hours – that’s a lot."
Note: Buffalo sits on the shore of Lake Erie, next to the Niagara River. Lake Erie has had a dead zone problem of its own for years, so not only is it a low-lying area where a heavier-than-air gas like hydrogen sulfide will accumulate when the wind isn't blowing and from where accumulated gas will blow when the wind picks up, the lake may very well also be a direct source now itself of hydrogen sulfide emissions...

2013-02-23 - Massive fire destroys more than 70 golf carts and shed in Bluffton (South Carolina), near the coast:
http://www.wistv.com/story/21316033/fire-at-sc-golf-course-destroys-up-to-75-carts
Note: A similar fire recently destroyed dozens of golf carts and a pole barn in Crystal Township (Michigan), as mentioned in the 2013-02-20 update. Golf carts are usually NOT combustion vehicles, but rather battery-powered. Well, hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper, especially 'hot' copper with a charge going through it, like, say, the cables that connect to batteries in golf carts or cars or RVs or trucks or boats, etc. This vulnerability is very likely why so many non-running vehicles are spontaneously combusting inside garages, parking garages, parking lots, while parked on streets or in driveways, etc. Battery fires breaking out was also why the Boeing Dreamliner fleet was grounded...

Also, basements are often where water heaters and gas dryers (and pilot lights) are located, as well as electrical panels, and hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper, especially 'hot' copper with a charge running through it. This particular fire was an electrical fire...

http://wtkr.com/2013/02/24/state-police-investigating-another-possible-arson-on-the-eastern-shore/
Note: Dozens of fires have broken out in vacant structures in this area since November. That's been happening in a great many towns and cities, but this area probably the worst. Nobody has ever seen an arsonist, there is no surveillance footage of any people being involved here, no motive, no nothin'. These fires in vacant structures, here and elsewhere, are very highly likely caused by hydrogen sulfide and/or methane getting into the structures and any nearby wood, or cloth, or furniture, or dead trees, or dried brush, or any flammable absorbent material, and eventually spontaneously combusting. Hydrogen sulfide is also reactive with copper and rusted iron or steel, so that may be serving as an ignition source in some cases too, like nail heads on the outside of the boards with which they frequently board up vacant homes...

Note: And this is why I've mentioned that it's wise to park your vehicle away from your residence, so you don't lose both your residence AND your vehicle when either one bursts into flame. That's probably especially true if your street or city name contains the words "Lake", "Mill", "Ferry", "Creek", "Ocean", "Sea", "Valley", "Bend", "River", "Cape", "Spring", etc.

http://uppermoreland.patch.com/articles/gas-explosion-sends-two-to-hospital-427df981
Note: The story is, a backyard fireplace tipped over near an empty gas can and that caused the huge explosion. Well, who knows. Doesn't seem like an empty gas can would explode with enough force to do that sort of damage, so maybe that was simply the ignition source and there was some gas lurking along the ground or blowing through the air at the time that when ADDED to the gasoline fumes from the empty can DID produce a large explosion. In any case, now that barbecue grill explosions and outdoor fireplace explosions and bonfire explosions are becoming so commonplace, it makes sense to note them, watch this particular pattern of events develop...

Note: I bet it was made out of wood, and obviously it was outside, fully exposed to the atmosphere. Also, it was probably held together with nails or bolts, probably steel or iron, so they'd rust, and hydrogen sulfide is absorbing into wood and will react with rusted iron or steel...

http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2013/02/20/subway_construction_fire_affecting_highway_traffic_in_york_region.html
Note: One guy says it was a conveyor belt that burst into flame and another guy says it was an electrical fire. Maybe it was an electrical fire on the conveyor belt. In any case, hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas and it will get into underground areas. It is also reactive with copper, especially 'hot' copper with a charge going through it. And rubber is an asborbent material which is absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane, and they mention conveyor belt rubber causing the black smoke in this fire. Not too dissimilar to all the other recent underground electrical fires blowing manhole covers off in this or that city lately...

http://www.tennessean.com/viewart/20130220/ROBERTSON01/302200149/No-injuries-garage-fire-near-White-House
Quote: "Fire departments responded to 6856 Herbert Shannon Road at 11:07 p.m. after the property owner heard 'popping noises' coming from the garage area."
Note: The 'popping sounds' have been heard in many fires. Those are probably the result of small-ish gas plumes igniting. When they're a little bigger then the explosions may sound like fireworks or gunfire. When they're REALLY big then the explosions can shake homes, destroy buildings, or devastate neighborhoods...

Note: A pile of furniture just burst into flame outside a furniture store in Sparks (Nevada) the day prior, as mentioned in the 2013-02-18 update. Furniture is made of absorbent flammable materials and all such materials are absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane and spontaneously combusting. That includes wood, cloth and fabric, cotton, hay, straw, paper, rubber, cardboard, generic trash, pallets, furniture, mulch, dead trees and brush, etc.

http://www2.turnto10.com/news/2013/feb/19/fire-destroys-home-coventry-pond-ar-1357825/
Quote: "Fire crews said they were unable to reach the origin of the fire initially as it was behind the home right on the pond."
Note: Ponds are low-lying areas where a heavier-than-air gas like hydrogen sulfide will accumulate when the wind isn't blowing and from where any accumulated gas will blow when the wind picks up. Gas probably accumulated and blew onto that house over and over as time went on, being absorbed into the wood of the house on the side facing the pond until eventually fire broke out...

Quote: "Lockhart said the remains were in the kitchen and there was no other damage in the home. The sheriff says there was no apparent source of the fire."
Note: They say it was possibly spontaneous combustion. Obviously it was. But it was the man's clothes that spontaneously combusted, and possibly his hair. Those are absorbent flammable materials and all such materials are absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane and spontaneously combusting. There have been numerous incidents like this now, of people - or rather their clothes and maybe their hair - simply bursting into flame, and there are going to be increasing numbers of people burning to death this way as the number, size and concentration of gas plumes in the atmosphere continue to increase...

2013-02-18 - Massive blaze destroys metal recycling company at the Port of Tampa in coastal Tampa (Florida):

http://www.abcactionnews.com/dpp/news/region_hillsborough/fire-crews-battling-two-alarm-industrial-fire
Quote: "One witness said he saw what he believed to be fireworks going off near the recycling yard just prior to the flames erupting."
Quote: "Revette said a large pile of scrap metal caught fire. She said the two-alarm fire burned hot, but no one was injured."
Quote: "According to the sign at the OneSteel site, the Tampa location deals in copper, brass, aluminum, aluminum cans and stainless steel, and also accepts scrap metal."
Note: I doubt that was fireworks the man saw, but rather he saw explosions and flashes of light, and his mind read that as fireworks. But gas plumes igniting and detonating ALSO produce explosions and flashes of light. And scrap metal burst into flame here. Fireworks wouldn't cause that. The fact that METAL burst into flame is itself a huge clue that hydrogen sulfide is involved in this fire, as with many others: hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper, possibly brass (since it contains copper), and rusty iron or steel. So some gas blows over a pile of metal like that and whoosh, explosions, flashes of light, and fire breaks out. Nothing else adequately explains fires like this...

http://www.wsbtv.com/news/news/local/officials-investigate-manhole-covers-blown-air-dow/nWSDM/
Note: There've been lots of events similar to this lately. Hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas so it will flow into underground facilities. Hydrogen sulfide is also reactive with copper and it is explosively flammable, and most of these underground fires are electrical fires, which means copper is present. In other words, we can expect to see many more events like this...

Quote: "San Antonio fire investigators call the fire suspicious because the SUV had been parked outside for several hours when it caught fire."
Note: LMAO, those investigators sure aren't paying attention to the real world these days. These vehicular fires DO NOT require the vehicle to be running. Hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper, especially 'hot' copper with a current running through it, like battery cables, and it is also reactive with rusted iron/steel, commonly found on many vehicles. That's why there are so many vehicles burning up that aren't running, just sitting in garages or carparks or parking garages or bus depots or whatever. You'd think professional fire investigators would have noticed what's going on in the world, seeing as it's THEIR JOB, but nope, they're obviously still snoozing...

Quote: "Residents in the area say they heard popping sounds shortly before flames quickly consumed the building and spread to an adjoining building."
Note: Those popping sounds were likely from gas plumes or pockets of accumulated methane and/or hydrogen sulfide igniting. Basically small explosions, which people may mistake for fireworks or gunfire. When big plumes or gas pockets explode then you get those thunderous home-shaking booms and explosion sounds that people are hearing and feeling around the world...

Quote: "David Reid told the Daily Mail that he and his son Lewis were terrified a bomb had gone off after they heard a 'massive explosion' two hours into their flight on a new Emirates Airbus A380 on Monday."
Quote: "We were about two hours in when suddenly there was a huge blast. It was a real shock, so loud that I thought a bomb might have gone off. Air was gushing into the cabin like a gale. The stewardess jumped up and stared at the door. Her face was drained white. She ran up the aisle, grabbed the intercom and started screaming, 'The door's going to go, the door's going to go!' Then she hid under her chair."
Note: An atmospheric hydrogen sulfide and/or methane plume may have ignited and detonated near that plane while in flight, and the force blew that door open. They're lucky to be alive...

Quote: "Chief Joe Hirsch tells us that there were 2 other fires of note nearby in the recent months, one at Tiger Trucking and one at Davis Auto Rebuild."
Note: Wood, cloth and cotton are all absorbent materials and absorbent materials are absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane and spontaneously combusting. This fire joins a long list of similar fires, including wood shops, wood-carving businesses, pallets and pallet companies, art houses (frames and canvas), door companies, cabinet companies, carpet and rug companies, lumber companies and sawmills, upholstery businesses, etc.

http://www.toledoblade.com/Police-Fire/2013/02/15/Vacant-home-fire-spreads-to-house-next-door.html
Note: Vacant homes are more vulnerable to the hydrogen sulfide and methane problem than are well-sealed occupied homes. So this place burst into flame. They put out the fire. That did absolutely zilch to address the vulnerability and the place was probably even MORE vulnerable after being damaged by the first fire, so it burned again. That's apt to continue until either they fix the vulnerabilities or the house burns so completely that there's nothing left that CAN burn...

Hydrogen sulfide is extremely flammable, it is reactive with copper, and the entire West Coast is downwind of the giant oceanic dead zone known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, which is surely pluming flammable hydrogen sulfide now...

Quote: "According to Rene Carlson of the Pima County Sheriff's Department, the man was in a shed when neighbors heard him yelling for help. He was found with his clothes burned on him."
Note: Clothes are made of absorbent materials, and all absorbent materials are absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane and either spontaneously combusting, or igniting with the slightest heat or even static electricity. A man just burst into flame outside a 7-11 in Provo (Utah), as mentioned in the 2013-02-11 update. He died from his burns. There have been quite a number of fires involving people (or rather their clothes) burning these past few months, and that's only going to become more of a problem as time goes on...

Quote: "He, however, declined medical transport to a hospital and stated the car was not running at the time of the incident."
Note: A man was in the SUV, unresponsive, and was pulled from the vehicle by his wife, else he'd have been listed in the corpses section. Also, vehicles need not be running for fire to erupt since hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper, especially 'hot' copper, and all the fires breaking out in non-running vehicles do appear to involve wiring, mostly originating under the hood (near the battery), but sometimes in other areas of vehicles where copper wiring is present...

Quote: "Sioux City police Lt. Mark Kirkpatrick said officials think someone used an accelerant to start the fire."
Note: Accelerant, sure. That's what hydrogen sulfide and methane are, accelerants. And this fire started under the hood, where the thick copper battery cables are. Hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper, especially 'hot' copper with a current running through it, like that under the hood near the battery in vehicles...

http://amestrib.com/sections/news/ames-and-story-county/boone-county-fires-under-investigation.html
Note: Boone County, welcome to the growing list of areas that are having the exact same problem. And it's all the same scenario in each area or town too: they assume arson, but have no witnesses, no surveillance footage, no motive, no suspects, and the fires continue. The burning of the Earth is the inevitable consequence of our atmosphere being flooded with accelerants. There's nobody to imprison to make it stop either, unless they can figure out how to imprison the oceans, seas and lakes...

2013-02-14 - Yet another fire erupts in the Eastern Shore area of Virginia:
http://hamptonroads.com/2013/02/another-fire-reported-accomack-county
Quote: "Investigators have not said whether they believe the blaze could be linked to the string of arson fires around the county mostly in abandoned buildings that began on Nov. 12. Last week, State Police said they believe more than one person is involved in setting the fires, with nearly 50 being started by those people who may be working together."
Note: Ah, so they have realized that no single person could possibly set all these fires. Yet it would be exceedingly rare for arsonists to team up. They may also be preparing people, so that they can arrest someone to placate the public, but then the fires will still continue, seeing as the underlying problem - our atmosphere filling up with accelerants - is not being addressed. There's nearly 4,000 square miles of methane hydrate deposits destabilizing right off the coast there, so it would be quite odd if there WEREN'T a lot of fires on the East Coast these days...

Note: Lots of underground electrical fires breaking out now. Hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas and will flow to the lowest-lying areas it can reach, like underground facilities. It is also reactive with copper, especially 'hot' copper with a charge running through it...

http://www.local8now.com/news/headlines/Firefighters-investigating-cabin-fire-191130511.html
Note: This wasn't a huge fire or anything, no injuries, may not even have been anyone home. I mention it mainly to show that living on mountains isn't going to be any panacea for this atmospheric hydrogen sulfide and methane problem. Living on a mountain CAN be helpful, but the gases can drop down on anyone anywhere too. And if you're on the side of a mountain which gets hit by the wind then any heavier-than-air hydrogen sulfide that fails to get blown up over the mountain will flow back down. That may happen over and over, concentrating the gas on the wind-facing side of the mountain until fires or explosions ensue...

2013-02-13 - Vacant apartment burns in Greenville (North Carolina):
http://www.reflector.com/crimerescue/vacant-apartment-fire-labeled-suspicious-1849993
Note: A storage room caught fire on the outside and spread to the apartment. They find that suspicious. It certainly could be, but maybe not. Was the storage room made of wood? Wood is absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane and spontaneously combusting. Also, were there any electrical lines with exposed copper wiring in that area? Hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper. The authorities don't understand what's going on, so they aren't likely to ask those questions or look for those things, so they're apt to jump to conclusions, as they appear to be doing in this case as with many others...

2013-02-12 - Two mysterious explosions shake homes, damage some, in Morristown (Tennessee):
http://www.wbir.com/news/article/254182/2/Morristown-Mystery-Residents-report-earth-shaking
Note: These mysterious explosions being seen/felt around the world in recent months are surely caused by flammable hydrogen sulfide and/or methane plumes igniting and detonating. If the explosion is high enough above ground, in the sky, then people see an accompanying 'flash of light'. When the explosions happen at or near ground level, people may see nothing, just feel the earth shake from the force of the explosion. Obviously, when these explosions start destroying entire towns or portions of cities, that's apt to be quite problematic. Morristown is also right next to - and downwind of - Cherokee Lake, a low-lying area where a heavier-than-air gas like hydrogen sulfide will accumulate when the wind isn't blowing and from where any gas that has accumulated will blow when the wind picks up. (Unless the gas simply explodes, of course.)

Quote: "About 2 a.m. Feb. 1, someone lit several trees in front of the complex on fire..."
Note: How do they know 'someone' lit the fire. Nobody saw anyone. There have been a number of incidents now of trees spontaneously combusting. Tree bark and dried leaves and dried branches are absorbent materials and all flammable absorbent materials are absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane and spontaneously combusting, including wood, paper, cardboard, generic trash, utility poles, train ties, pallets, cotton, clothing, hay, straw, etc.

Note: Debris probably included wood, which is absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane and spontaneously combusting. I highlight the word 'mill' because mills are virtually always built near bodies of flowing water, for free energy for millwork, which means a low-lying area where a heavier-than-air gas will tend to accumulate and concentrate until wind blows it onward...

Quote: "Aaction Rents rents various kinds of tools and other equipment, including tractors. The adjacent Encore Events Rentals handles party rental equipment such as tables, linens and tents."
Note: So a fire involving combustion-engine-powered stuff (tractors), next door to a business that deals with absorbent materials (tables, linens and tents), near the West Coast, and also 1 mile due east of a stream. The entire West Coast is downwind of the giant oceanic dead zone known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, which is surely pluming flammable hydrogen sulfide now. Methane may be bubbling up from below in California now too. In fact, it definitely is in at least one area; methane was found in the soil near 19 homes in Santa Maria (California), also near the West Coast, as mentioned in the 2013-01-18 update...

Note: From the pic, you can see this place is right by a body of water, a canal or stream or something. Also, buildings under construction are more vulnerable to the hydrogen sulfide and methane problem than well-sealed completed buildings. They're particularly vulnerable in the framing stage when all that wood is open to the atmosphere, since wood is an absorbent material and is absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane and spontaneously combusting...

Quote: "Smoke and flames took over the Mishawaka skyline Monday night as firefighters battled one of the city's biggest blazes in decades. "
Note: Wow. Okay, that's the new record for most vehicles burning in one fire, far exceeding the previous record, which was 58, all boats, which burned up in a gigantic blaze at a marina on Norris Lake in Tennessee, as mentioned in the 2012-09-10 update...

http://www.ksl.com/?sid=24039689&nid=148&title=man-critically-injured-after-catching-fire-at-provo-7-eleven
Quote: "The man was airlifted to the University of Utah Hospital Burn Center, but he left behind a disturbing scene. As the fire burned the man, charred pieces of clothing fell to the ground in several places. Witnesses said by the time they put him out he had almost no clothing left."
Note: His clothes had probably asborbed hydrogen sulfide and/or methane. Dumpsters are also full of absorbent materials (paper, cardboard, wood, tampons, etc). Was he a smoker? Maybe he had a lit cig in hand and he opened up the dumpster to throw something away and whoosh, both he AND the dumpster ignited. He was by no means the first person to burst into flame like this; there will be many more events just like this one...

http://whitelake.patch.com/articles/suspected-arsonist-sets-fire-to-vacant-home-appearing-in-movie
Note: Nobody saw anybody, so I guess their reasoning for suspecting an arsonist is that the building had no power or gas going to it, so they're relying on that now-dysfunctional equation: IF ((NO_POWER) AND (NO_GAS)) THEN ARSON=TRUE. That equation was probably pretty accurate back in the day. These days, not so much. You'd think they'd have figured things out by now, seeing as it's their job and all, but nope.

Quote: "Firefighters discovered thick black smoke and flames inside the manhole. As firefighters began moving pedestrians from the scene, another manhole about 175 feet away, near the intersection of Jefferson and Mason streets, blew up. 'It obliterated the asphalt,' Lipski said in an interview at the scene at 7:30 p.m. Asphalt chunks littered the street where pavement was heaved up like it had been punched from underneath."
Note: The last underground explosion similar to this was waaaay back in...the day before, in coastal Manhattan (New York), as mentioned in the 2013-02-09 update. Hydrogen sulfide is extremely flammable, it is a heavier-than-air gas which will get into underground facilities, and it is reactive with copper...

Note: Another RV showroom burned hard not too long ago, in Ontario (Canada), as mentioned in the 2012-11-27 update. RVs have a lot of vulnerabilities to the hydrogen sulfide and methane problem: 1) they have lots of copper and batteries in them, and hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper; 2) they have steel/iron in them and hydrogen sulfide is reactive with rusty iron; 3) they often use propane-powered appliances, with pilot lights; 4) they have wheels and brakes and wheel rubber is absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane and igniting brakes, brake lines, tires and entire vehicles when the heat from brake-friction meets contaminated tires; 5) when running, their engine heat or exhaust heat may ignite gas plumes directly if any gas blows by...

http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/manhole-explosion-fire-manhattan-madison-avenue--190538871.html

Also, methane may be bubbling up from below ground in coastal areas as the methane hydrate deposits around the world continue to dissociate, and methane is also flammable, though not reactive with copper...

2013-02-07 - Vacant home bursts into flame on Kelly Mill Road in Richland County (South Carolina), fire spreads to occupied home:
http://www.wistv.com/story/21078277/firefighters-battling-blaze-involving-2-homes
Note: As mentioned before, it is now increasingly dangerous to live next to vacant structures, which are now spontaneously combusting. Occupied buildings are also spontaneously combusting but not as much as vacant structures, since vacant structures have more vulnerabilities to the atmospheric hydrogen sulfide and methane problem. Also, I highlight the word 'mill' because mills are virtually always near bodies of flowing water to provide free energy for millwork, and that means they're near low-lying areas where a heavier-than-air gas like hydrogen sulfide will tend to accumulate when the wind isn't blowing and from where any that has accumulated will blow when the wind picks up...

Other problem materials include tires, cotton, hay, straw, cardboard, mulch, dried brush, palm trees (no kidding, there have been multiple incidents of palm trees bursting into flame), clothing, rugs and carpets, and more...

http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/Store-on-Fire-Inside-Hamilton-Mall-190171901.html
Note: Any copper in that register? I bet there was. Hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper, and also absorbs into paper. One spark from the copper to ignite receipt paper that's absorbed hydrogen sulfide and you have a cash register fire. And to go along with this fire, there was the underground electrical fire in Philadelphia too, mentioned above on this same day...

Quote: "The explosion shook homes even several blocks away, damaging at least 6 or 7 of them. Most had broken windows."
Note: They say the explosion was caused by a natural gas leak. Could be, but that's jumping to conclusions. They obviously aren't paying attention to all the methane pouring into our atmosphere. Maybe a methane-fueled or hydrogen-sulfide-fueled explosion blew open a natural gas pipe when it leveled the building. I don't see that they even mention that possibility. Maybe they don't think that gigatons of explosively flammable gas in our atmosphere can cause explosions and fires? Maybe they don't think explosions can damage pipes? Maybe they just sleep all day at the office instead of educating themselves about what's going on, as pertains to their job?

2013-02-05 - SUV bursts into flame while parked outside home in Stuttgart (Arkansas), home next door burns too:
http://www.stuttgartdailyleader.com/article/20130205/NEWS/130209830/1001/NEWS
Quote: "The Stuttgart Fire Department put out a car fire Friday and before leaving the scene was called to the home next door that was on fire. Both cases were determined to be caused separately and arson was not suspected."
Quote: "After an investigation the fire was determined to have started inside the wall just east of the front door. A dimmer switch is believed to have gone bad."
Note: So at the same time, an SUV bursts into flame, not running, and a home right next door catches fire too, and they say they aren't related. The SUV fire will probably be ruled an 'electrical problem'. Same thing with the house - dimmer switch. Well, both incidents involve COPPER, and hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper. Same area, same timeframe, same type of problem, and one other thing they had in common: the atmosphere.

Quote: "...a Saturday morning fire tore through the sewing factory at 5 Buchanan Ave. in Hummels Wharf where the company designs and produces compression and post-operation surgical garments for physicians..."
Quote: "Grove said the fire originated near the furnace and water heater."
Note: So a business involving absorbent materials (in this case clothing), with a fire that breaks out near the pilot lights of the water heater and the furnace. I would bet that this building was infiltrated by hydrogen sulfide or methane, the clothes absorbed some, and eventually some of the gas found its way to one of those flames and whoosh, up went this building and its inventory...

Note: One block from a lake, a low-lying area where a heavier-than-air gas like hydrogen sulfide will accumulate when the wind isn't blowing and from where any that has accumulated will blow once the wind picks up...

2013-02-03 - Box truck bursts into flame near building in Derby (Connecticut):
http://www.nhregister.com/articles/2013/02/04/news/valley/doc510f210512695626199432.txt
Quote: "The State Fire Marshal’s office has been called to assist with the investigation and to use a canine to check for accelerants, according to Lenart, because the Route 34 corridor has had a rash of recent brush fires too."
Note: Dried brush is an absorbent material (like hay, straw, paper, wood, clothing, cotton, etc), so it will absorb hydrogen sulfide and/or methane and eventually spontaneously combust. So you've got brush and vehicles breaking out in fire in that area. Any vacant homes or barns around there? If so, they'll be burning too, soon enough, if they aren't already...

2013-02-03 - Pickup truck bursts into flame in coastal Seattle (Washington):
http://westseattleblog.com/2013/02/truck-fire-under-investigation-in-junction-neighborhood
Quote: "...the resident who reported it said the truck’s wheel/tire appeared to be burning first, and then the front of the truck burst into flames, with an audible explosion."
Note: His tires had probably absorbed some hydrogen sulfide and/or methane. Then when the brakes were applied, the heat ignited the tires. Sometimes it's the brakes that burn up too (see the devastating bus accident for this same day for an example of that). And sometimes, as with this pickup, the fire starts with the wheels or brakes but the entire vehicle ends up on fire...

Quote: "Officials now confirm that it was a heating unit in the basement that caused the explosion."
Quote: "Those inside the house when the explosion happened say it felt like an earthquake."
Note: Hydrogen sulfide is heavier-than-air and will flow to basements. Over time it will be absorbed into wood, cardboard, carpets and rugs, books, clothes, even concrete, and eventually it will reach the point where ignition will occur if any gas comes into contact with any ignition source, like heating units, pilot lights in water heaters or ovens or gas dryers, electrified copper, rusty iron, etc. Once it ignites then you might get a fire, or you might get an explosion, or both...

Note: The authorities find it suspicious because it was multiple buildings in the same general area that caught fire. I find that to be exactly what we should expect to see as the number, size and concentration of hydrogen sullfide and methane plumes in the atmosphere increase. Eventually it may be entire blocks of buildings, then entire towns, then entire cities, and then we'll be about done living on the surface of the planet...

http://philadelphia.cbslocal.com/2013/02/01/tacony-palmyra-bridge-reopened-after-fire/
Note: Well, this is an interesting fire here. Looks like it's concrete that caught on fire at the water line. Maybe hydrogen sulfide absorbed into the concrete? Concrete is absorbent, absorbs water for example, to some degree anyway. And hydrogen sulfide is water-soluble and heavier-than-air so that is a place where you'd expect it to be, at least from time to time. So, looks like even our concrete stuff may burn too, to go along with iron/steel, copper, wood, paper, clothes, plastic, rubber. There probably isn't going to be much sign that we were ever even here in a few decades...

Note: Wetlands? Wetlands are low-lying areas where a heavier-than-air gas like hydrogen sulfide will accumulate when the wind isn't blowing and from where any gas that has accumulated will blow when the wind picks up. Sounds like there's been a lot of birds dying around there. They're probably breathing hydrogen sulfide and flopping over dead or getting hit by gas when in flight and tumbling from the sky dead, just like the birds that have been falling dead from the sky dead in the U.S. over the last couple of years or so...

2013-02-05 - Two horses die within minutes at Meadows Racetrack in Washington (Pennsylvania):
http://www.wpxi.com/news/news/local/2-horses-die-within-minutes-meadows-racetrack/nWHCZ/
Quote: "Officials at the harness racing track about 15 miles south of Pittsburgh say an 8-year-old mare, Lislea Isabella, suffered some sort of respiratory distress and died as she prepared to run in the 14th race Monday afternoon. Another horse, 7-year-old Little Bit Tricky, then died while running in the 15th race."
Quote: "Mike Jeannot, president of Meadows Racing, says he hasn't 'seen this in the 20 years I've been around.' Kim Hankins, executive director of the Meadows Standardbred Owners Association says having two horses die so closely together is 'phenomenally coincidental. It's unbelievable.'"
Note: Hay is an absorbent material and is absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane. Hydrogen sulfide is also a water-soluble gas and since it's heavier-than-air it will accumulate anywhere water does. Where and when did these two horses last eat and drink? Because at least the one horse suffered respiratory distress, I would bet it was hydrogen sulfide in gaseous form that got to them, either at their water supply, or there was hydrogen sulfide in some hay that they got near while eating or in their stalls...

Note: Apparently homeless people, so that might have been their home, such as it was. Train tracks often run through valleys gouged out of the hills, for fuel efficiency, and valleys are low-lying areas where a heavier-than-air gas like hydrogen sulfide will accumulate. They may have been knocked unconscious and died there from the cold. As mentioned numerous times, WHERE you fall unconscious can determine your fate. Fall unconscious outside in the heat and you broil. Fall unconscious outside in the cold and they'll find your corpsicle later. Fall unconscious in water and you drown. Fall unconscious skydiving or while leaning over a balcony and you splatter over the landscape. Fall unconscious driving and you'll veer off the road and crash. And so on...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-norfolk-21440381
Quote: "Detectives investigating the deaths of an elderly couple found dead in their bungalow have ruled out carbon monoxide poisoning."
Quote: "The bungalow which is about a mile from the sea remained sealed off today while a police investigation into the deaths of the couple continued."
Note: Their air-circulation system probably sucked in some hydrogen sulfide blowing in off the ocean and that killed them. The medical examiner won't find anything in the autopsy either since hydrogen sulfide degrades away in a matter of hours inside a person's body, and they'd been dead longer than that before they were even found. Nor am I at all confident that the authorities would say that hydrogen sulfide is what killed them even if they knew, since what's happening might be deemed too scary for people to know. Dead people are easy to handle. Scared people, less so. I believe we're now experiencing what might be called a 'managed die-off', where people are now dropping dead, singly and in groups, but the actual reason for all of the dying is being hidden from us in order to keep people calm as they die...

Note: Police say this is just coincidence and that the two deaths aren't related. And yet they DID share the same atmosphere, pulled in by the same air-handling system, in the same building, on the same floor, and died at about the same time. Sounds more like hydrogen sulfide to me than coincidence. I wonder what they'll say when it's 3, or 5, or 10 people, or more, dropping dead in individual rooms in the same dorm or whatever on the same night. We'll see, because that's just a matter of time...

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/story/2013/02/15/sk-bodies-prince-albert-130215.html
Note: Apparently homeless people, so that might have been their home, such as it was. Train tracks often run through valleys gouged out of the hills, for fuel efficiency, and valleys are low-lying areas where a heavier-than-air gas like hydrogen sulfide will accumulate. They may have been knocked unconscious and died there from the cold. As mentioned numerous times, WHERE you fall unconscious can determine your fate. Fall unconscious outside in the heat and you broil. Fall unconscious outside in the cold and they'll find your corpsicle later. Fall unconscious in water and you drown. Fall unconscious skydiving or while leaning over a balcony and you splatter over the landscape. Fall unconscious driving and you'll veer off the road and crash. And so on...
2013-02-14 - Two men found dead, woman sickened, at housing complex for the elderly in coastal Boston (Massachusetts):
http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/2013/02/14/police-men-found-dead-may-have-ingested-poison/LOQ70ftI4dajNPjxOw8FFN/story.html
Note: They think maybe poison, something they ate. Hydrogen sulfide is water-soluble, so if they cooked anything with contaminated water, or if hydrogen sulfide gas settled into or onto any food they ate, then this might be the result. Or they could have simply breathed the same air...

2013-02-12 - Couple, 71 and 69, found dead in bungalow in Caister-on-Sea, Norfolk (Britain):
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2277909/Police-rule-carbon-monoxide-poisoning-deaths-husband-wife-bungalow.html
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-norfolk-21440381
Quote: "Detectives investigating the deaths of an elderly couple found dead in their bungalow have ruled out carbon monoxide poisoning."
Quote: "The bungalow which is about a mile from the sea remained sealed off today while a police investigation into the deaths of the couple continued."
Note: Their air-circulation system probably sucked in some hydrogen sulfide blowing in off the ocean and that killed them. The medical examiner won't find anything in the autopsy either since hydrogen sulfide degrades away in a matter of hours inside a person's body, and they'd been dead longer than that before they were even found. Nor am I at all confident that the authorities would say that hydrogen sulfide is what killed them even if they knew, since what's happening might be deemed too scary for people to know. Dead people are easy to handle. Scared people, less so. I believe we're now experiencing what might be called a 'managed die-off', where people are now dropping dead, singly and in groups, but the actual reason for all of the dying is being hidden from us in order to keep people calm as they die...

2013-02-11 - Two men drop dead in their respective rooms at YMCA in Pittsburgh (Pennsylvania):
http://triblive.com/news/adminpage/3464421-74/north-ymca-600
Note: Police say this is just coincidence and that the two deaths aren't related. And yet they DID share the same atmosphere, pulled in by the same air-handling system, in the same building, on the same floor, and died at about the same time. Sounds more like hydrogen sulfide to me than coincidence. I wonder what they'll say when it's 3, or 5, or 10 people, or more, dropping dead in individual rooms in the same dorm or whatever on the same night. We'll see, because that's just a matter of time...

2013-02-28 - Young American tourist, woman, dies at beach in coastal Belize:
http://trib.com/news/local/casper/wyoming-woman-found-dead-in-belize/article_784ee7e4-184d-594d-8d1b-dc2be9c3930f.html
Quote: "At the time, Dr. Giovanni Solorzano of the Dr. Otto Rodriguez San Pedro Poly Clinic II told The San Pedro Sun that bruises around the woman’s neck could be consistent with strangulation. According to Eric Heyden, public affairs officer for the United States Embassy in Belmopan, Belize, the autopsy 'may have determined' that Sy had a seizure in the water and drowned."
Note: Seizures don't cause bruising around the neck. Hydrogen sulfide poisoning, however, can cause bruising, as blood vessels explode (though it doesn't always, depends on the concentration and how long your heart keeps beating and pulsing blood). Several of the documents linked in the 'Info Links' section refer to hydrogen sulfide as a 'strangling gas' and there's reason for that. Hydrogen sulfide poisoning can also cause seizures. And she was found dead in coastal waters? Uh huh. Also, look at the 'Other Stories' for this same day: dozens of people sicken and lose consciousness from 'noxious fumes' on the island of Jamaica...

http://www.arkansasonline.com/news/2013/feb/28/one-dead-submerged-vehicle-white-county/
Note: He probably got a whiff of hydrogen sulfide, lost consciousness and veered off road into the river. As mentioned, where you lose consciousness can determine your fate. One of the worst places to lose consciousness is in water, since breathing is an involuntary reflex and you will breathe water until dead. And near bodies of water is where hydrogen sulfide will tend to accumulate since it's a heavier-than-air gas. There have been lots of corpses found in submerged vehicles this last year. Coincidence? I highly doubt that...

Note: Sorta like that guy who burst into flame near a dumpster outside a 7-11 in Provo (Utah) recently, as mentioned in the 2013-02-11 update. Dumpster-diving may not be all that safe of an activity anymore. Dumpsters are usually filled with flammable absorbent materials which will absorb hydrogen sulfide and/or methane. Also, if they're open-top dumpsters, then they'll tend to collect heavier-than-air hydrogen sulfide, like a bowl catches rainwater. The hydrogen sulfide might knock someone unconscious. Both methane and hydrogen sulfide are flammable. If you're a dumspter-diver AND a smoker, and you light up at the wrong time...

Note: I've been watching skydiving incidents for a bit now, and this isn't the first such incident, though it's apparently the first for Camp Pendleton Marines. I think in at least some cases the skydivers are being knocked unconscious by methane and/or hydrogen sulfide blowing through the atmosphere. Then they don't open their 'chute, and...splat.

Note: And one day prior, a man pulled over and died as his car caught fire, in Kosciusko (Mississippi), as mentioned in the 2013-02-19 update. Hydrogen sulfide is not only deadly but also flammable.

When it kills you almost instantly, they call that the 'Slaughterhouse Sledgehammer Effect', where you are dead before you hit the ground. But you might just be knocked unconscious, fall to the ground, and die more slowly, if the concentration of the gas you breathe isn't enough to be instantly lethal...

Quote: "Mr Le-Man went missing last Monday after taking his dog Millie for a walk along the coast."
Note: The event listed is not for Mr. Le-Man, but for ANOTHER missing man they found dead. Mr. Le-Man is still missing. So, multiple people recently going missing near that beach, and one found dead, so far. Not too terribly surprising...

2013-02-15 - Missing man, 21, found dead in ditch at bottom of cliff in New Mexico:
http://www.kob.com/article/stories/S2933775.shtml
Note: I've mentioned location being important when you lose consciousness. When you lose consciousness in a high place, you may very well fall to your death. I call these 'topplers'. The first sequence of events that alterted me to this problem was a spate of deaths where maids were mysteriously toppling off of high-rises in coastal Thailand. Once I started looking, I found many similar deaths, people toppling off balconies, parking garages, hotels, high-rises, cliffs and scenic areas, bridges, people going missing from cruise ships, skydivers not opening their 'chutes, etc.

Quote: "Police confirmed the death of the child in dubious circumstances but said that the cause of death was suffocation after lacking fresh air while trapped in the vehicle."
Note: Clearly the police there have never spent much time in a car. I have slept in a car many times, windows rolled up, no problem. I slept in a car with my mother a number of times as a child too - TWO people - and no problem. Cars are not remotely airtight enough to suffocate anyone, especially a small child who would consume less oxygen than an adult, unless Tanzania's got some new super-airtight high-tech cars that nobody else has...

http://www.wiscassetnewspaper.com/article/27-year-old-waldoboro-man-found-dead/9642
Note: He was walking to a friend's house, never made it there. Hydrogen sulfide can kill you really fast, the so-called 'Slaughterhouse Sledgehammer Effect', where you're dead before you hit the ground. Sounds like he didn't get hit quite that hard though, because he was found a bit off the road, so he may have tried to outrun the gas killing him and made it a dozen yards or so before it dropped him...

2013-02-10 - Woman, 22, found dead and man, 29, unconscious, in hotel room in coastal Lapu-Lapu in the Philippine Islands:
http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/356181/dead-woman-unconscious-korean-found-in-lapu-hotel
Quote: "Police said the woman had bruises in the different parts of the body."
Quote: "Police said fluids were seen coming out from the Korean’s mouth which could be a result of drug overdose."
Note: Hydrogen sulfide can cause blood vessels to rupture and thus cause bruising. A victim may even look like they've been severely beaten. Breathing hydrogen sulfide, if it doesn't kill you outright, can cause chemical damage to lungs and foaming at the mouth. The woman here was probably smaller than the man, less mass, so less of her to poison, so she died. The man was bigger so he didn't die, at least not yet. Sometimes the effects are delayed, by minutes, hours, even days. He could drop dead from a brain aneurism or heart attack any time now, and even if he doesn't, he may have sustained serious organ damage or brain damage...

http://www.telegram.com/article/20130210/NEWS/130219988/1116
Note: Hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas. A snowblower would kick up any gas at ground level. One whiff and you might just start feeling unwell, then your heart might stop a little later. That's exactly what happened to this man...
2013-02-10 - Group of people go swimming at pond in High Point (North Carolina), 3 of them die:

Note: Ostensibly they died from drowning and hypothermia. Of course that's exactly what they'd die of if they lost consciousness from breathing a little hydrogen sulfide, which is a heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas, just like water does, which means...ponds. In any case, 3 more people dead in a low-lying area...

According to arson investigators, the neighbors were able to use fire extinguishers to put out the fire and told Kimper to leave his apartment and sit in a chair. When paramedics arrived on the scene, they found him dead, sitting in the chair, without any burns to his body. Neighbors said Kimper smoked cigars, but fire crews did not see evidence of those starting the fire."
Note: Absorbent materials - like mattresses, clothing, cotton, wood, paper, hay, etc. - are absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane and spontaneously combusting. So his mattress probably got contaminated, burst into flame. The heat from the small fire expanded the gas inside the mattress and he breathed in a bit, enough to kill him, albeit not instantly, and he died a few minutes later while sitting in the chair...

Note: Eerily similar event happened last year. A woman, 24, was found dead under her porch in Wisconsin, as mentioned in the 2012-04-13 update. I think sometimes hydrogen sulfide hits people and they go blind, or they're too weakened to stand, or both, so they crawl to the safest area they can locate, and then die...

http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews/Chief-says-boy-found-on-Wasagamack-First-Nation-died-of-exposure-190206231.html
Note: They say he died of exposure. I bet he did, but the question is, why didn't he simply go inside instead of dying? He probably got a whiff of hydrogen sulfide and fell unconscious, and where you are and what you are doing determines your fate when you fall unconscious. Fall unconcious when it's really hot and you die from the heat. Fall unconscious when it's really cold and you die from the cold. Fall unconscious skydiving and you hit the ground and splatter. Fall unconscious driving and you'll veer off road or into oncoming traffic. Also, look at this area on a map: bodies of water everywhere, looks like the tundra equivalent of swampland...

You definitely don't want to get a whiff of hydrogen sulfide when you're outside and it's really cold or really hot, when you're swimming, or skydiving, or leaning over a balcony, or driving any kind of vehicle, or operating a chain saw, etc.

Quote: "The Federal Aviation Administration received a distress call from the pilot saying he was losing his vision."
Note: As many of the documents in the 'Info Links' section show, hydrogen sulfide is not good for eyes. He may have flown into a pocket of hydrogen sulfide. They never heard from him again. He may have first had vision problems then lost consciousness then crashed. As mentioned, location is very important when hydrogen sulfide knocks you unconscious. Lose consciousness driving a vehicle and you crash. Lose consciousness swimming and you drown. Lose consciousness when it's cold and you freeze. Lose consciousness when it's hot and you fry. Lose consciousness leaning over a balcony or at the edge of a cliff or parking garage and you may topple to your death. And so on...

Not coincidentally, there have been quite a number of vehicular fires inside tunnels in the last month or three...

2013-02-23 - Tractor trailer crashes out-of-control in coastal West Java (Indonesia) after brake failure, 16 dead, 10 injured:
http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/site/?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=VI-20130223-38301-IDN
Quote: "He said the truck driver appeared to have lost control when his brakes failed, and hit a minivan and dozens of motorcycles near a factory before crossing the road and hitting a number of cars before slamming into several houses."
Note: So he hit a minivan, dozens of motorcycles, a number of cars AND several houses. Whew. As mentioned, tires are absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane, probably the former since it is a heavier-than-air gas and tires rest on the ground. Then when brakes are applied, the hydrogen sulfide causes the brake-friction to generate far more heat than normal (hydrogen sulfide burns very hot), and then bad things happen: tires ignite and/or explode, brakes and/or brake lines burn up, power steering and hydraulic lines may rupture or ignite, the entire vehicle may catch fire and burn up, or all of the above. This problem is more likely to manifest with massive vehicles, because more mass means more brake-friction required to slow, but it's hitting smaller vehicles here and there too (SUVs, pickups, etc). Motorcycles don't seem to be too heavily affected by this problem, at least not yet, probably because although they only have half the tires, they also have LESS than half the mass of the average vehicle...

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/leader/bayside/bread-delivery-truck-overturned-in-mt-martha/story-fngnvli9-1226581919886
Quote: "Hastings Highway Patrol issued a defect notice to the driver after the truck's brakes failed at about 6.30am, causing it to veer off the road and end up in the scrub just before the edge of the cliff."
Note: Hydrogen sulfide is being absorbed into tires. It is a heavier-than-air gas and tires rest on the ground. Then when brakes are applied, the brake-friction generates more heat than would normally be the case (since hydrogen sulfide burns very hot), and then bad things happen: brakes burn up and sometimes ignite, tires ignite or explode or both, brake lines or power steering lines or hydraulic lines may rupture from the heat, and sometimes the whole vehicle goes up in flames...

http://www.rawlinstimes.com/news/article_7ddedd52-7a51-11e2-82bc-0019bb2963f4.html
Quote: "The driver told the Fire Department that he had parked on the top of the hill three hours earlier and did set the brakes."
Note: I believe him. His brakes were probably fried from brake-friction burning hydrogen sulfide that had absorbed into his tires, or his brake lines had ruptured from the heat and had dribbled away brake fluid over time. Seen this happening more over the last few months, and it usually seems to be happening with massive vehicles, which makes sense: massive vehicles require more brake friction to slow, so the odds that their tires or brakes or brake lines will burn because of this problem are correspondingly higher than for lower-mass vehicles...

http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/site/?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=VIV-20130217-38231-RUS
Note: Been seeing numerous hydraulic issues with planes. This could be related to the tire-absorbency and brake-friction problem, where tires absorb hydrogen sulfide and then the tires burn or explode when the brakes are applied and brake-friction generates more heat than it normally would (since hydrogen sulfide burns very got), or the brakes catch fire, or the brake lines and maybe the hydraulic lines rupture from heat/fire...

2013-02-16 - Small plane has rough landing after landing gear collapses, at airport in Pierce County (Wisconsin):
http://www.twincities.com/wisconsin/ci_22605318/faa-investigate-rough-landing-at-pierce-county-airport
Note: The blown tires and landing gear collapses that are happening are for the same reason: tire rubber is semi-absorbent and it is absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane, probably the former since hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas and tires rest on the ground. Then when brakes are applied - mostly during landings for planes - the brake-friction burns hotter than it normally would (since hydrogen sulfide burns extremely hot) and then tires ignite or explode. On small planes, they don't have dozens of tires like jumbo jets do, so when they blow a tire, the landing gear strut hits the ground and the landing gear collapses. When it's the nose gear that collapses you often see the plane flip over....

Quote: "A PIA aircraft crashed on the runway after its landing gear collapsed..."
Note: All the tires exploding on planes and all the landing gear problems, it's all for the same reason: the rubber of tires is absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane, probably the former because tires sit on the ground and hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas. Then when brakes are applied, the brake-friction generates more heat than it normally would (because hydrogen sulfide burns very hot), and then bad things happen: tires ignite or explode, brakes themselves ignite, power steering lines and/or brake lines burn through, or the entire vehicle catches fire and burns, or all of the above. In the case of planes, they apply their brakes the hardest right after landing, so that's why these events are mostly happening to planes as they land. And once enough tires explode, the landing gear slams into the ground and collapses. With small planes, when it's the nose gear that collapses, they frequently flip over...

Note: There have been many recent incidents involving blown tires, including on large passenger planes and ground vehicles. The reason for this is simple: tire rubber is semi-absorbent and the rubber is absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane (probably more the former because it is a heavier-than-air gas and tires sit on the ground). Then when brakes are applied, the brake-friction generates more heat than it normally would (since hydrogen sulfide burns very hot), and then bad things happen: tires burn and/or explode, brake lines burn through, brakes themselves burn up, power steering lines burn through, the entire vehicle catches fire, or some combination. The most extreme example of this was a jumbo jet that blew FOURTEEN TIRES as it landed in coastal Anchorage (Alaska), as mentioned in the 2012-09-11 update...

Note: So, low-lying area, near a body of water, driver loses control and slams another vehicle, both vehicles burst into flame, then one of the drivers gets out and drops dead. Lots of signs of hydrogen sulfide there, which can cause driver impairment, stop hearts, and cause fires, and is a heavier-than-air gas and thus will tend to accumulate in the same areas that water does, like rivers...

Note: Hydrogen sulfide is neurotoxic, so if she got a whiff it could have blanked her out, made her unresponsive. This story reminds me of a story late last year, where a guy found his friend ON FIRE, sitting in a chair in his apartment, rocking, TV on. He may have been alive as he burned to death, but was similarly unresponsive. His friend went to get a fire extinguisher, but it was too late by then. That event was mentioned in the 2012-11-24 update and happened in Las Vegas (Nevada)...

http://www.tampabay.com/news/publicsafety/accidents/howard-frankland-reopens-all-lanes-after-gravel-truck-overturns/1273664
Quote: "John Bonacci, of Palm Harbor, was driving a truck full of gravel when a front tire blew out. The truck turned on its side..."
Note: As mentioned many times now, tires are absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane. Then when brakes are applied, the tires burn or explode, or the brakes ignite, or the power steering lines burn through, or the vehicle catches on fire, or all of the above. This is most likely to happen with massive vehicles like this one, because more mass requires more brake-friction to slow the vehicle, which means more heat. It is also more likely to happen in areas where heavier-than-air hydrogen sulfide would tend to accumulate, which means low-lying areas: near or on bridges, near creeks, rivers, streams, lakes, seas, beaches, coasts, valleys, gorges, ravines, etc.

2013-02-03 - Tour bus swerves around, crashes with other vehicles, near coastal Los Angeles (California), 8 killed, dozens injured:
http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/02/04/16832626-survivors-say-bus-weaved-in-and-out-of-traffic-before-deadly-crash
http://www.cnn.com/2013/02/03/us/california-bus-crash/index.html
Quote: "CHP Officer Mario Lopez said the driver told investigators the bus suffered brake problems as it headed down the mountain."
Quote: "Surviving passengers aboard the bus said they heard noises they thought were the breaks and smelled something burning and then watched in horror as the bus weaved in and out of traffic for up to three minutes, trying to avoid cars..."
Quote: "California Department of Transportation spokeswoman Michelle Profant said the scene after the crash was shocking. 'It's really a mess up there with body parts,' Profant told The Associated Press."
Note: Like I've been saying for a while, tires are semi-absorbent, and they are absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane. Then when brakes are applied, the brake friction generates more heat than it normally would. As a consequence, tires may burst into flame and/or explode, the brakes or brake lines may burn up, power steering lines may burn through, sometimes the entire vehicle catches fire and burns up. The bigger and heavier the vehicle, the more brake friction is required to slow, which means more heat, which means more chance of one or all of those problems manifesting. This was a big, heavy bus, lots of mass. They were going downhill, so the driver had to use the brakes. The brakes burned up and then there was no stopping, so he did his best to avoid other vehicles until they crashed...

Quote: "The Federal Aviation Administration received a distress call from the pilot saying he was losing his vision."
Note: As many of the documents in the 'Info Links' section show, hydrogen sulfide is not good for eyes. He may have flown into a pocket of hydrogen sulfide. They never heard from him again. He may have first had vision problems then lost consciousness then crashed. As mentioned, location is very important when hydrogen sulfide knocks you unconscious. Lose consciousness driving a vehicle and you crash. Lose consciousness swimming and you drown. Lose consciousness when it's cold and you freeze. Lose consciousness when it's hot and you fry. Lose consciousness leaning over a balcony or at the edge of a cliff or parking garage and you may topple to your death. And so on...

Note: You can see from the pic that she was very close to that tunnel. Tunnels like that are another kind of 'low-lying area', and they will tend to capture a heavier-than-air gas like hydrogen sulfide as it blows across the planet. Not coincidentally, there have been quite a number of vehicular fires inside tunnels in the last month or three...

2013-02-23 - Tractor trailer crashes out-of-control in coastal West Java (Indonesia) after brake failure, 16 dead, 10 injured:
http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/site/?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=VI-20130223-38301-IDN
Quote: "He said the truck driver appeared to have lost control when his brakes failed, and hit a minivan and dozens of motorcycles near a factory before crossing the road and hitting a number of cars before slamming into several houses."
Note: So he hit a minivan, dozens of motorcycles, a number of cars AND several houses. Whew. As mentioned, tires are absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane, probably the former since it is a heavier-than-air gas and tires rest on the ground. Then when brakes are applied, the hydrogen sulfide causes the brake-friction to generate far more heat than normal (hydrogen sulfide burns very hot), and then bad things happen: tires ignite and/or explode, brakes and/or brake lines burn up, power steering and hydraulic lines may rupture or ignite, the entire vehicle may catch fire and burn up, or all of the above. This problem is more likely to manifest with massive vehicles, because more mass means more brake-friction required to slow, but it's hitting smaller vehicles here and there too (SUVs, pickups, etc). Motorcycles don't seem to be too heavily affected by this problem, at least not yet, probably because although they only have half the tires, they also have LESS than half the mass of the average vehicle...

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/leader/bayside/bread-delivery-truck-overturned-in-mt-martha/story-fngnvli9-1226581919886
Quote: "Hastings Highway Patrol issued a defect notice to the driver after the truck's brakes failed at about 6.30am, causing it to veer off the road and end up in the scrub just before the edge of the cliff."
Note: Hydrogen sulfide is being absorbed into tires. It is a heavier-than-air gas and tires rest on the ground. Then when brakes are applied, the brake-friction generates more heat than would normally be the case (since hydrogen sulfide burns very hot), and then bad things happen: brakes burn up and sometimes ignite, tires ignite or explode or both, brake lines or power steering lines or hydraulic lines may rupture from the heat, and sometimes the whole vehicle goes up in flames...

Quote: "The driver told the Fire Department that he had parked on the top of the hill three hours earlier and did set the brakes."
Note: I believe him. His brakes were probably fried from brake-friction burning hydrogen sulfide that had absorbed into his tires, or his brake lines had ruptured from the heat and had dribbled away brake fluid over time. Seen this happening more over the last few months, and it usually seems to be happening with massive vehicles, which makes sense: massive vehicles require more brake friction to slow, so the odds that their tires or brakes or brake lines will burn because of this problem are correspondingly higher than for lower-mass vehicles...

http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/site/?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=VIV-20130217-38231-RUS
Note: Been seeing numerous hydraulic issues with planes. This could be related to the tire-absorbency and brake-friction problem, where tires absorb hydrogen sulfide and then the tires burn or explode when the brakes are applied and brake-friction generates more heat than it normally would (since hydrogen sulfide burns very got), or the brakes catch fire, or the brake lines and maybe the hydraulic lines rupture from heat/fire...

2013-02-16 - Small plane has rough landing after landing gear collapses, at airport in Pierce County (Wisconsin):
http://www.twincities.com/wisconsin/ci_22605318/faa-investigate-rough-landing-at-pierce-county-airport
Note: The blown tires and landing gear collapses that are happening are for the same reason: tire rubber is semi-absorbent and it is absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane, probably the former since hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas and tires rest on the ground. Then when brakes are applied - mostly during landings for planes - the brake-friction burns hotter than it normally would (since hydrogen sulfide burns extremely hot) and then tires ignite or explode. On small planes, they don't have dozens of tires like jumbo jets do, so when they blow a tire, the landing gear strut hits the ground and the landing gear collapses. When it's the nose gear that collapses you often see the plane flip over....

http://www.saudigazette.com.sa/index.cfm?method=home.regcon&contentid=20130212152895
Quote: "A PIA aircraft crashed on the runway after its landing gear collapsed..."
Note: All the tires exploding on planes and all the landing gear problems, it's all for the same reason: the rubber of tires is absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane, probably the former because tires sit on the ground and hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas. Then when brakes are applied, the brake-friction generates more heat than it normally would (because hydrogen sulfide burns very hot), and then bad things happen: tires ignite or explode, brakes themselves ignite, power steering lines and/or brake lines burn through, or the entire vehicle catches fire and burns, or all of the above. In the case of planes, they apply their brakes the hardest right after landing, so that's why these events are mostly happening to planes as they land. And once enough tires explode, the landing gear slams into the ground and collapses. With small planes, when it's the nose gear that collapses, they frequently flip over...

Note: There have been many recent incidents involving blown tires, including on large passenger planes and ground vehicles. The reason for this is simple: tire rubber is semi-absorbent and the rubber is absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane (probably more the former because it is a heavier-than-air gas and tires sit on the ground). Then when brakes are applied, the brake-friction generates more heat than it normally would (since hydrogen sulfide burns very hot), and then bad things happen: tires burn and/or explode, brake lines burn through, brakes themselves burn up, power steering lines burn through, the entire vehicle catches fire, or some combination. The most extreme example of this was a jumbo jet that blew FOURTEEN TIRES as it landed in coastal Anchorage (Alaska), as mentioned in the 2012-09-11 update...

Note: So, low-lying area, near a body of water, driver loses control and slams another vehicle, both vehicles burst into flame, then one of the drivers gets out and drops dead. Lots of signs of hydrogen sulfide there, which can cause driver impairment, stop hearts, and cause fires, and is a heavier-than-air gas and thus will tend to accumulate in the same areas that water does, like rivers...

Quote: "We were just talking to her and it was just glossy-eyed, wasn't really registering..."
Note: Hydrogen sulfide is neurotoxic, so if she got a whiff it could have blanked her out, made her unresponsive. This story reminds me of a story late last year, where a guy found his friend ON FIRE, sitting in a chair in his apartment, rocking, TV on. He may have been alive as he burned to death, but was similarly unresponsive. His friend went to get a fire extinguisher, but it was too late by then. That event was mentioned in the 2012-11-24 update and happened in Las Vegas (Nevada)...

2013-02-04 - Gravel truck overturns on the Howard Frankland Bridge in coastal St. Petersburg (Florida):
http://www.tampabay.com/news/publicsafety/accidents/howard-frankland-reopens-all-lanes-after-gravel-truck-overturns/1273664
Quote: "John Bonacci, of Palm Harbor, was driving a truck full of gravel when a front tire blew out. The truck turned on its side..."
Note: As mentioned many times now, tires are absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane. Then when brakes are applied, the tires burn or explode, or the brakes ignite, or the power steering lines burn through, or the vehicle catches on fire, or all of the above. This is most likely to happen with massive vehicles like this one, because more mass requires more brake-friction to slow the vehicle, which means more heat. It is also more likely to happen in areas where heavier-than-air hydrogen sulfide would tend to accumulate, which means low-lying areas: near or on bridges, near creeks, rivers, streams, lakes, seas, beaches, coasts, valleys, gorges, ravines, etc.

2013-02-03 - Tour bus swerves around, crashes with other vehicles, near coastal Los Angeles (California), 8 killed, dozens injured:
http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/02/04/16832626-survivors-say-bus-weaved-in-and-out-of-traffic-before-deadly-crash
http://www.cnn.com/2013/02/03/us/california-bus-crash/index.html
Quote: "CHP Officer Mario Lopez said the driver told investigators the bus suffered brake problems as it headed down the mountain."
Quote: "Surviving passengers aboard the bus said they heard noises they thought were the breaks and smelled something burning and then watched in horror as the bus weaved in and out of traffic for up to three minutes, trying to avoid cars..."
Quote: "California Department of Transportation spokeswoman Michelle Profant said the scene after the crash was shocking. 'It's really a mess up there with body parts,' Profant told The Associated Press."
Note: Like I've been saying for a while, tires are semi-absorbent, and they are absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane. Then when brakes are applied, the brake friction generates more heat than it normally would. As a consequence, tires may burst into flame and/or explode, the brakes or brake lines may burn up, power steering lines may burn through, sometimes the entire vehicle catches fire and burns up. The bigger and heavier the vehicle, the more brake friction is required to slow, which means more heat, which means more chance of one or all of those problems manifesting. This was a big, heavy bus, lots of mass. They were going downhill, so the driver had to use the brakes. The brakes burned up and then there was no stopping, so he did his best to avoid other vehicles until they crashed...

Note: Like homeless people - who are sickening and dying - wild animals are outside and fully exposed to whatever hydrogen sulfide and/or methane blows through. The hydrogen sulfide will sicken them and destroy their neurologies over time, making the animals go insane and 'behave strangely'. The same is true of humans, as with the Florida man who in a 30-minute span of time went from a normal church-going guy to a ravening cannibalistic face-eater incapable of speech after walking on a causeway over water in coastal Florida, downwind of the dead zones in the Gulf of Mexico, which are surely pluming hydrogen sulfide now...

Note: Like homeless people - who are sickening and dying - wild animals are outside and fully exposed to whatever hydrogen sulfide and/or methane blows through. The hydrogen sulfide will sicken them and destroy their neurologies over time, making the animals go insane and 'behave strangely'. The same is true of humans, as with the Florida man who in a 30-minute span of time went from a normal church-going guy to a ravening cannibalistic face-eater incapable of speech after walking on a causeway over water in coastal Florida, downwind of the dead zones in the Gulf of Mexico, which are surely pluming hydrogen sulfide now...

Quote: "That, however, did not prevent people from panicking as CSO workers and curious onlookers began to collapse. 'Jesus Christ, what is happening? Somebody tell us what is going on, nuh!' screamed one woman as her colleague fainted. The woman, who used a handkerchief to cover her nose, was one of several frightened-looking CSO employees seen running around as medical officials rushed several persons to ambulances. Police at the scene said medical officials made at least six trips to the Kingston Public Hospital (KPH). 'The hospital ambulances were filled with people complaining that they were finding it difficult to breath,' one policeman told the Jamaica Observer. That was confirmed by a medical official at the KPH who asked not to be named, as he was not authorised to speak to the media. He said a large group of persons suffering from dizzy spells and respiratory problems were taken to the hospital."

2013-02-28 - Sinkhole opens up beneath home in Seffner (Florida), 7 miles from the coast, swallows man, 1 killed:
http://www.miamiherald.com/2013/03/01/3260805/florida-man-vanishes-after-being.html
Note: Florida is much like Louisiana in terms of the composition of the underlying ground. It is quite possible that methane hydrate deposits were created over the ages, then erosion washed soil over parts of those deposits, then animals and plants moved in, then WE moved in and built on top of that land. As the deposits warm and melt, some of that underlying ground - the hydrate desposits, which are a kind of solid - will dissolve into water and methane gas. As that happens, sinkholes will open and there will be land subsidence. This is already occurring in multiple areas in Louisiana and it looks like it's going to be a significant problem for Florida too, which means this will also likely be a problem for the coastal regions of Mississippi and Alabama and Texas, and probably for many if not most coastal regions worldwide...

2013-02-26 - 'Plague of locusts' spotted along the Red Sea coast near the Nile River Delta in Egypt:
http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/site/?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=BH-20130227-38345-EGY
Note: In the Permian-Triassic extinction event, insects fared better than other forms of life, though that was one of the rare extinction events that did seriously damage insect species. They probably fared best because of one primary reason: their reproductive rates. Clouds of deadly hydrogen sulfide gas and raging fires could wipe out 99 percent of them every year, and they'd still be able to come back, because they could reproduce quickly. For this reason alone, insects are likely to fare best in ALL extinction events, including the current one. Thus as human civilization withers away, insects will probably dominate the world, at least for a very long time...

Note: Huh, and I just mentioned the day prior, in the 2013-02-22 update, that they might try to disguise some of the corpses being found burned in burning or burned-out vehicles as murders or suicides. Well, who knows, maybe it WAS a murder-suicide here. Regardless, with all the charred corpses being found in vehicles now, it's time to pay close attention to such events...

http://enenews.com/agents-inspect-mystery-bubbling-by-salt-dome-we-found-foaming-residue-somethings-happening-witness-lines-of-bubbles-stretched-for-thousands-of-feet-videos
Note: Sounds like methane hydrate deposits below ground may be melting. As those deposits melt away, they will transform from solid to water and gaseous methane. The water will do what water does. The gas will rise up through the ground and bubble up from waterways. As this occurs, there may be ground subsidence in the form of sinkholes. Ultimately, much of the coastland of Earth may simply dissolve away...
2013-02-22 - Two charred corpses found in burning car in coastal Baltimore (Maryland), police say were shot first:

Note: Could be this is one way that they'll try to explain some of the burned corpses in cars: by telling us that they were shot first. Another way would be by telling us that the people committed suicide by burning themselves to death on purpose. If so, then there will be a rise in the number of burned bodies found in cars where we're told they were shot first or we're told the people burned themselves on purpose. I'll list those corpses down here in this section, so we can see if a pattern develops as pertains to people being found burned to death in vehicles...

Note: That's at least potentially more confirmation of MISA Theory. I mentioned that coastal volcanoes like this would be squeezed like zits. What happens to a zit when you squeeze it, before it pops? The same thing that's happening at this supervolcano. That doesn't mean this volcano WILL erupt, but it does mean that the odds that it will erupt have increased...
