Event Update For 2013-08-18



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.

2013-08-18 - In separate incidents, vehicle and restaurant burst into flame in Mission Valley (California), near the coast:

http://www.utsandiego.com/news/2013/aug/18/gordon-biersch-fire-icemaker/
http://www.10news.com/news/crews-extinguish-fire-at-gordon-biersch-restaurant-in-mission-valley-08182013
 
Quote: "At around 1:15 p.m., firefighters responding to a vehicle fire right next to the Gordon-Biersch Brewery Restaurant in Mission Valley were called to another fire that broke out inside the eatery."
 
Note: First the vehicle caught fire while parked at the restaurant. While they were fighting the vehicle fire, another fire, 'electrical', began in the restaurant. Hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper, especially electrified copper. That both these fires broke out in the same general area and in the same timeframe, and taking into consideration the proximity to the West Coast (2 miles) - this looks like hydrogen sulfide. What else, coincidence? This reminds me of another incident, where an SUV burst into flame while parked at one home and a dimmer switch (electrified copper) caught fire in the home next door, same time, as mentioned in the 2013-02-05 update. Coincidence again? No, a pattern, a trend...

Quote: "Firefighters battled a two-alarm blaze Sunday afternoon at a Mesquite home after a neighbor reported hearing an explosion..."

Quote: "Miller said firefighters believe the blaze — which he said let off 'strange odors' — might have started in the garage area..."

Quote: "Miller said fire investigators saw no evidence of an explosion, save for a few aerosol cans that blew up after the blaze started. Miller said the gas company checked and said gas was not a cause either."

Note: Garage area - any vehicles or combustion engines or battery-powered devices in there? Strange odors - fires involving hydrogen sulfide may emit 'strange odors', extremely unhealthy odors too, and sometimes fatal...

The barn was probably spontaneous combustion as flammable absorbent materials absorb hydrogen sulfide and/or methane, or some hydrogen sulfide found some rusty iron in or near the barn (nails, horseshoes, pipes, whatever)...

2013-08-18 - Sewer smoke testing scheduled for Burton (Michigan):
http://www.mlive.com/news/flint/index.ssf/2013/08/smoke_testing_set_to_take_plac.html

Note: Sewer smoke testing was recently done in coastal Sequim (Washington) too, as mentioned in the 2013-08-09 update. I bet we see more of this. Hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas and will tend to flow to low-lying areas, underground facilities, sewers, basements, etc. Sewers are also traditional producers of hydrogen sulfide even in normal times. By running tests like this - and the gas tests in the subway systems in NYC and London - they will be able to find weaknesses and vulnerabilities in the system, maybe even address them, as best they can...
