Event Update For 2015-02-26

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.

2015-02-26 - Driver has 'medical emergency', minivan slams into home near Midlothian (Virginia), 1 killed, 2 injured:

http://www.richmond.com/news/local/chesterfield/article_53460461-c20d-53ba-a775-58bf955cca17.html
http://www.wvva.com/story/28217938/chesterfield-man-killed-when-van-crashes-into-home

Quote: "The minivan’s driver had a 'major medical emergency' shortly before 6 p.m. that caused the vehicle to run off Robious Road onto Greenfield Drive and strike the home, according to fire Lt. Jason Elmore."

Note: The fatality was some poor soul inside the house...

2015-02-26 - Man, 52, has 'medical episode', tractor trailer crashes into ditch, near Billingham (Britain), 1 killed:
http://www.gazettelive.co.uk/news/teesside-news/man-dies-hospital-after-hgv-8731149

Quote: "It is believed that the male driver suffered a medical episode at the wheel. He was taken to hospital and sadly passed away overnight."

Note: You just can't count on staying conscious - or alive - when driving anymore. Or when not driving, for that matter. As more people lose consciousness, have seizures or 'medical events', or slump over dead while driving, driving is going to become more...uhhh...interesting. A lot of the time, these events are going to slide under the radar - just one person driving along, who slumps over dead while driving and then hits a tree or building or plunges into a stream or canal. Nobody will ever know that they died right BEFORE the crash...

Quote: "Firefighters said that the source of the blast, which occurred around 9:30 p.m., appeared to be 'chemical in nature.' No natural gas serves the neighborhood."

Note: Yeah, and the same thing that made this home explode is surely making other homes explode that DO have gas service too. There's no reason homes with gas service would be immune to whatever made THIS home explode...

Quote: "His mother was cooperative, but she was too upset and disoriented to provide details about where she and the baby had been, authorities said previously. The infant was found between where Green turned up along a river levee and where her car was found at the opposite end of the wetlands known as the River Cut Slough."

Note: Enough hydrogen sulfide to cause disorientation in the mother might very well kill the baby. Swampy area, disorientation, death...

2015-02-26 - Man found dead in car off Hixson Pike in Chattanooga (Tennessee):
http://www.chattanoogan.com/2015/2/25/294902/Storm-Leaves-Treacherous-Streets-And.aspx

Quote: "While traveling southbound in the 4850 block of Hixson Pike, the driver went off the road to the left and hit some bushes and a wooden fence. The driver was found deceased inside the vehicle. Officers on the scene said it did not appear the man died as a result of crashing his car."

Note: Probably the reverse, slumped over dead while driving, and corpses make terrible drivers. That can happen to anyone anywhere and at any time now, though you're most likely to be struck dead in the wee hours and when in, near or downwind of a low-lying area like a ditch, ravine, body of water, etc. Being in a vehicle does offer some protection, but only if the windows are all rolled up, the vents are all closed, and neither heat nor AC are being used...

Quote: "One potential disaster relates to the explosions themselves. No one has been hurt in any of the blasts, but given the size of some of the craters, it's fair to say the methane bursts are huge. Researchers are nervous about even studying them. Who knows when a methane geyser will shoot off again? 'These objects need to be studied, but it is rather dangerous for the researchers,' Bogoyavlensky told the Siberian Times."
