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.

2014-07-16 - Man loses consciousness on boat in Mills Creek, near coastal Annapolis (Maryland), medevac'd off:
http://www.wusa9.com/story/news/local/maryland/2014/07/16/coast-guard-transports-unconscious-man-md-sailboat/12765487/
Note: Hydrogen sulfide can sicken or kill people by breathing it in gas form, by touching it if it's adsorbed onto materials, or by swimming in water in which hydrogen sulfide is dissolved. The latter two ways won't involve any odor, just people/animals sickening and/or dying. As time goes on and the planet continues spewing methane and hydrogen sulfide into the atmosphere, events like these will become both more common and more deadly. It's also a heavier-than-air gas so it will tend to flow to all the same places that water does which, when combined with the fact that it is water-soluble, makes being near bodies of water an increasingly dangerous place to spend time. Obama signed an executive order in 2012 giving the Department of Defense authority over water supplies in the United States in times of national emergency. I see why...
Quote: "The Agriculture Department will take care of food resources while the Defense Department will handle water resources in addition to its military role."

A home exploding in Orwell? How . . . well, weird. Ya can't make this stuff up!
Just to illustrate that pit bulls are all crazy face chewers:
http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2014/07/pit-bull-rescues-deaf-child-from-burning-home/
Pit Bull Rescues Deaf Child from Burning Home
The following video tells the story of Ace, a Pit Bull who awoke yesterday to the sound of a smoke detector in his home and immediately ran to the bedroom of his young owner, 13-year old Nick Lamb.
Nick was born deaf and he takes out his cochlear implants when he sleeps.
No one else was home at the time of the incident, which Nick described to a local Indiana outlets as follows:
"My dog licked my face and woke me up. I was like, ‘Stop it! What? You want to be fed?’ I thought he wanted to be fed or go outside."
Instead, Nick quickly realize the home was engulfed in smoke, so he covered his nose and mouth and ran into the backyard with his two-year old savior.
In the end, the house was completely destroyed by the fire, which caused $175,000 worth of damage. But Nick, Ace (and also the family cat) made it out safely.
Tom
Ace was just making sure the boy was alive, because if not...there was just time for one quick McFacewich before fleeing! Hah, the pit bull people are gonna get me now!
