Event Update For 2014-08-30

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.

2014-08-30 - Widespread 'gas odor' reported in Chester, Bucks, Delaware and Montgomery counties (Pennsylvania):
http://6abc.com/news/strong-odor-in-pa-counties-prompts-over-600-calls-to-peco/288054/
http://www.philly.com/philly/news/PECO_crews_probe_gas_odor_in_Delaware_Montgomery_counties.html
http://www.wopular.com/peco-crews-probe-gas-odor-delaware-montgomery-counties

Quote: "The utility company had received more than 400 calls from residents reporting the smell as of 4 p.m. Saturday, spokeswoman Jackie Thompson said. Some of the reports originated in Chester and Bucks counties, but the increased call volume has been mainly comprised of reports from residents in Delaware and Montgomery counties, Thompson said. Emergency dispatch centers and fire departments in Delaware and Montgomery counties have also reportedly been inundated with calls reporting a gas odor. Despite the volume of reports, no leaks had been located Saturday evening, Thompson said."

Note: By 'gas odor' they mean the 'rotten egg' odor of mercaptan, which is added so that odorless natural gas has any smell at all. But hydrogen sulfide also smells like 'rotten eggs' at low concentrations, so people will confuse the two smells, and they are. No gas leaks found, so it wasn't natural gas. So this was very likely hydrogen sulfide blowing through this area, a big cloud but low in concentration. Now it will flow to low-lying areas in that area and concentrate, creating much smaller but potentially much more deadly invisible clouds of gas that will then blow on with the wind, adsorbing here and there onto wood and cardboard and trash and tires and whatnot...

Looks just like all the other parked vehicles that have been spontaneously igniting around the world, especially in the wee hours and especially in, near or downwind of low-lying areas like rivers. Somebody might wanna start a fund-raiser and buy these people a clue...

Quote: "Nandakumar, who went in first, fainted. Seeing him slump to the ground at the bottom of the pit, Jayakumar, who was not aware his colleague had inhaled toxic gases, jumped down to rescue him and met with the same fate."

Note: That's not uncommon with hydrogen sulfide poisoning events: one person succumbs then others go to the rescue and they succumb too. I just mentioned two days prior, in the 2014-08-28 update, when two sewer workers were gassed to death in Georgetown (Idaho), that we'd be seeing more sewer workers getting gassed to death. Two other workers were just gassed to death in Scottsdale (Arizona) too, mentioned in the 2014-08-25 update. There will be more...
