Event Update For 2014-09-05

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.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/pilot-of-unresponsive-plane-radioed-air-traffic-control-twice-to-ask-permission-to-descend-9716190.html

Quote: "Trailed much of the way by two U.S. fighter jets, a small plane with an unresponsive pilot flew a ghostly 1,700-mile journey down the East Coast and through Cuban airspace on Friday before finally crashing off the coast of Jamaica."

Quote: "The incident is the second time in less than a week that private pilot has become unresponsive during a flight. On Saturday, a pilot lost consciousness and his plane drifted into restricted airspace over the nation's capital. Fighter jets were also launched in that case and stayed with the small aircraft until it ran out of fuel and crashed Saturday into the Atlantic."

Note: A pilot just lost consciousness less than a week prior too and crashed a plane into the ocean near coastal Chincoteague Island (Virginia), mentioned in the 2014-08-30 update. It's probably best not to count on staying conscious if you fly a plane or drive a vehicle of any kind these days. Those APCs they've been giving out to local police departments - THOSE are hardened against gas so you'd probably be somewhat safer driving one of those...

Quote: "On Friday evening at 22.18 clock was far beyond the city to hear a loud bang. The reason: In the second basement floor of a parking garage of a data center, there was a violent explosion. Also, the power went out. The fire brigade Innsbruck could get the fire only with the use of breathing apparatus in the handle."

Note: Power went out so this was likely the building-based equivalent of the underground electrical explosions and fires that have been occurring...

The more vehicles that are parked in close proximity to one another, the greater the odds that some or all of them end up burning...
