Event Update For 2015-08-15

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.cnn.com/2015/08/15/asia/china-tianjin-explosions/

http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/08/15/us-china-blast-idUSKCN0QH2B220150815

Quote: "Fires shot plumes of black smoke into the sky Saturday at the site of a chemical warehouse in Tianjin, China, where explosions earlier this week killed at least 85 people."

Quote: "However, photographs made it appear that vehicles in a parking lot had caught fire rather than new explosions having taken place at the warehouse, as the Xinhua news agency had reported."

Note: Well, vehicles of all types are igniting all over the place, and the piles of vehicles parked where this explosion occurred aren't invulnerable to the problem. On the contrary, they're right near the port area on the coast. This was obviously alarming happening so soon after that monumental explosion though...

Note: They suspect arson, but 1) nobody saw anybody; 2) there's no motive; 3) vacant (and occupied) homes are spontaneously igniting all over; and 4) they haven't ruled out accidental causes. Maybe it was an arsonist going berserk, but unless they come up with some actual proof of there being an arsonist, I'm skeptical...

Note: A woman smoking a cig was burned to death by a 'flash fire' outside her home last month in Northfield (New Hampshire), mentioned in the 2015-07-10 update. 'Flash fires' are when flammable gases in the atmosphere burn off. If some methane and/or hydrogen sulfide blows by then you can go up in flames and die the same way, ignited by a cig, or a cellphone (electrified copper) or static electricity. That may be what happened to this woman in Milwaukee too. Mostly people are burning to death in their vehicles - vehicles are loaded with ignition sources - but not always...

2015-08-15 - Woman, 43, has 'medical episode', car hits SUV head-on, in Grosse Pointe Farms (Michigan), 1 killed, 3 injured:
http://www.fox2detroit.com/news/local-news/8261907-story
http://www.clickondetroit.com/news/headon-collision-kills-1-on-lake-shore-drive/34739410

Quote: "A 43-year-old mother, driving with her two kids in a Ford Flex had what police believe was a medical episode that caused her to get up to a high rate of speed and then caused her to lose control of her vehicle, crashing head-on with another vehicle."

Quote: "The head-on collision happened at Lake Shore Drive and Warner Road."

Note: She had to be having a seizure, so her legs were spazzing - that's why she accelerated. She was also the fatality, so the 'medical episode' might have been what actually killed her. She had her two kids with her and both of them were injured. You can't count on not spazzing out, falling unconscious or dying while driving anymore, especially near bodies of water or other low-lying areas. You can't count on OTHER drivers not spazzing out, falling unconscious or dying while driving anymore either. Grosse Pointe Farms is located on the shore of Lake St. Clair...

http://www.wfsb.com/story/29793602/i-95-southbound-closed-in-old-lyme

Quote: "Two tractor-trailers and five cars collided at around 6 a.m., killing at least one person and left several others with life-threatening injuries. Life Star was called to the scene along with paramedics from several neighboring communities. One first responder described the scene as 'cars on top of cars.'"

http://www.kxii.com/home/headlines/Triple-fatal-accident-in-Cooke-Co--321970491.html

Quote: "Authorities told WFAA that an 18-wheeler headed south between Valley View and Sanger crossed the median and crashed through a cable barrier and into the northbound lanes at about 2 p.m., slamming into a Honda Odyssey minivan and killing its driver and passenger. The big rig — dragging the cable barrier along with it — started a small grass fire as it finally came to rest 15 feet from railroad tracks. The truck’s driver was taken to North Texas Medical Center in Gainesville, where he was pronounced dead."

Note: These big rigs veering into oncoming traffic are among the scariest accidents, in my opinion anyway. Not much you can do about a big rig suddenly in your face out of nowhere...

2015-08-15 - Three people sickened by unknown cause on blood donation bus in Houston (Texas):
http://abc13.com/news/possible-carbon-monoxide-poisoning-on-blood-donation-bus/933338/

Quote: "No blood donors were on board at the time of the incident. Workers believe the bus was possibly leaking carbon monoxide, but the carbon monoxide sensor did not go off on the bus."

Note: Hydrogen sulfide poisoning, if not too concentrated, can cause the same symptoms, and as all safety docs say, you should never count on smelling hydrogen sulfide - sometimes you will, sometimes you won't. The CO detectors didn't go off, but they want to think that it was CO anyway? That's an extremely easy thing to test. They tried to blame carbon monoxide when 22 students collapsed to the ground unconscious at an OUTDOOR stadium in Houston (Texas) in late 2011 with a 'strange odor' present. That never made sense: people smelled something so it wasn't carbon monoxide (which is odorless), and carbon monoxide is a lighter-than-air gas (that's why detectors go on ceilings) and all the kids who collapsed were in the BOTTOM of the stadium, which is where a HEAVIER-than-air gas would tend to flow. Also, carbon monoxide doesn't knock people unconscious instantly like that...
