Event Update For 2013-05-31

http://jumpingjackflashhypothesis.blogspot.com/2012/02/jumping-jack-flash-hypothesis-its-gas.html

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.

A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally.
B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species.
C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead.
D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world.
E. More unusual vehicular accidents.
F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

2013-05-31 - Huge inferno devours thousands of pallets at pallet yard at 3:30 AM, lights up the night sky, in Doncaster (Britain):

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-22739822
http://www.brightonwired.co.uk/news.php/1487420-Doncaster-pallet-yard-fire-spreads

 

Quote: "All the pallets, many thousands of them, have been destroyed in the fire."

 

Note: The wee hours are when the atmosphere cools and contracts, which will push any hydrogen sulfide or methane floating in the atmosphere above closer to the ground, making explosions, fires and hydrogen sulfide poisoning events more common during those hours.

 

There have been numerous pallet fires over the past year or so, some of them simply gigantic. Pallets have a number of vulnerabilities to the atmospheric hydrogen sulfide and methane problem. First, they're made of wood, and all flammable absorbent materials are absorbing hydrogen sulfide and/or methane and spontaneously combusting, including wood, paper, cardboard, sawdust, dried brush, mulch, hay, straw, clothing, cotton, wool, etc. Secondly, they're held together with steel nails or screws, which rust, and hydrogen sulfide is reactive with rusty iron/steel; sparking and fire can result from contact between rusty iron/steel and gaseous hydrogen sulfide, no flame or heat source necessary. Finally, pallets are often kept outside, where they are fully exposed to any hydrogen sulfide or methane blowing by in the atmosphere. Consequently, there've been lots of pallet-related fires. Wood porches and decks and fences all have these same vulnerabilities, although they are usually better-protected with sealants or paint or both...

Quote: "Firefighters are still trying to determine what caused a fire in Northwest Albany Friday morning that did more than $362,000 in damage to three tractor trailers."

Note: Two tractor trailers were destroyed, the third damaged. They were parked next to each other. If they'd just parked them away from each other, they might have saved a quarter million dollars in damages. I have a feeling we're gonna wish we'd been smarter about this when the tractor trailers and tanker trucks are all gone and there are no more food, fuel or medicine deliveries...

Quote: "Police listed the case as a possible drug overdose, but no drugs or paraphernalia were found in a search of Brittnee’s room and purse."

Note: I mentioned the authorities will likely try to use 'drug overdose' as an excuse to disguise some of the deaths caused by hydrogen sulfide poisoning. So they found zero evidence of any drug involvement here - none at all - and what do they do? They list possible drug overdose as cause of death. Sure, that's possible, but so is hydrogen sulfide poisoning...

Quote: "A Texas City man was found dead in his partially submerged car after he suffered an apparent heart attack..."

Note: Say, that's exactly what hydrogen sulfide is going to look like in many cases: an apparent heart attack. And this city is right on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, near its dead zones, which are surely pluming hydrogen sulfide now. Also, as mentioned in the full hypothesis: "More people will be found dead in submerged vehicles."

2013-05-31 - NSF awards grant to develop material that can selectively oxidize physiological levels of hydrogen sulfide:
http://www.azom.com/news.aspx?newsID=36971

Quote: "Jason Bennett’s proposal, 'Advancing Electrodeposited Dicyano-ferriprotoporphyrin as an Electrocatalytic Material Capable of Selectively Oxidizing Hydrogen Sulfide Over Interfering Gasotransmitters' will be supported with $176,588 for two years beginning in July and $66,874 in a third year, contingent on the availability of funds."

Note: Can you really ever have enough electrodeposited dicyano-ferriprotoporphyrin?! I think not! Actually, I have no idea what any of that means other than it sounds like it'd possibly lead to the ability to mitigate hydrogen sulfide within the human body, and that sounds useful.
