Event Update For 2015-02-17

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.

2015-02-17 - Underground electrical fire erupts near Queensboro Plaza in Long Island City in coastal Queens (New York):

Quote: "FDNY Engine 258 On Scene of a Transformer Fire in Queensboro Plaza in Long Island City, Queens. 2/17/15"

Note: These underground fires and explosions are getting worse. The problem wasn't nearly this bad last year, or the year before, or ever. As the atmospheric contamination problem intensifies, it was expected that these incidents would become more problematic, and they are. It's clearly worse on the East Coast, which is probably related to all of the following: 1) the gigantic methane clathrate deposit melting and releasing methane off the East Coast; 2) the deployment of two billion-dollar blimps on the East Coast whose primary mission is to the identify 'air-breathing threats'; 3) the NTSB wanting to check all mass-transit underground facilities around the country for fire/explosion danger; 4) responders recently training in coastal NYC to deal with the aftermath of a large 10-kiloton explosion...
