Event Update For 2015-05-08





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.

2015-05-08 - Antarctica experiencing a net loss of about 92 billion tons of ice per year:
http://www.rtcc.org/2015/05/07/scientists-warn-of-runaway-west-antarctic-ice-melt/

Note: Bad news there. All that mass heading toward the oceans and the thin crust at the bottom of the oceans will cause more quakes and volcanic eruptions, especially in the oceans and in coastal areas. And that will cause more methane and hydrogen sulfide to spew from the oceans, which will cause more fires and explosions, and more animals and people will drop dead. And so on and so on, until we're gone. It's probably best not to count too much on living as long as ten more years. One whiff of invisible hydrogen sulfide blowing by and you could be dead today...

Note: MISA Theory keeps on chugging. The more ice that melts on this planet, the more volcanism that occurs. The more volcanism that occurs, the faster we end up extinct. And it's all speeding up, feedbacks reinforcing other feedbacks. It's unstoppable. Maybe it always was. In any case, we can either work on Plan B or we can keep doing whatever it is we're currently doing until we individually each burn to death or fall over dead or whatever. Seeing as people aren't waking up and facing the problem, it seems like people would actually prefer to die than they would prefer to deal with reality. The Earth is totally fine with us committing suicide by inaction...

Crews put out the semi fire before it started back up again, Ludwig said. Shortly after that fire, another crash occurred at mile marker 208. Ludwig did not know how many vehicles were involved in the second crash. The third crash occurred at mile marker 215 and involved three cars, two semis and a transit bus, according to Ludwig.
