Event Update For 2016-02-18

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.

2016-02-18 - Elementary school being hit by hydrogen sulfide, people sickening, in coastal Orleans Parish (Louisiana):
http://theadvocate.com/news/neworleans/neworleansnews/14920866-32/noxious-odors-upset-students-parents-at-bethune-elementary

Quote: "Those tests found nothing amiss, state documents show. But they did not check for hydrogen sulfide gas, which can cause nausea, airway problems and other issues during prolonged exposure, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. State health inspectors, in a later test, found concentrations of that gas, as well as carbon monoxide in the air."

2016-02-18 - Landfill spewing hydrogen sulfide in Orange County (Florida):
http://www.fox35orlando.com/home/93438733-story

Quote: "Part of the landfill is undergoing construction and manager Jim Becker says an outside consultant advised them to mix the construction and demolition debris with household waste as a more affordable approach and it's that combination, he says, that is creating a hydrogen sulfide emission, or rotten egg smell."

2016-02-18 - Gold Bar Park regularly being hit by hydrogen sulfide in Edmonton (Canada):
http://globalnews.ca/news/2529293/gold-bar-park-users-cause-a-stink-over-h2s-concerns/

Quote: "The World Health Organization website says that 'there are no studies on effects of long-term exposure to hydrogen sulfide in animals.'"

Quote: "Bennett said that the lack of data about long-term low dose exposure in humans is also concerning."

Note: That's right, nobody knows what it does to people or animals with long-term chronic exposure, even at low levels. But it's a deadly poison, as deadly as hydrogen cyanide which is what they use to execute people in gas chambers, so there's no way the effects are GOOD. Brain damage, kidney damage, heart damage, who knows. And he's not even thinking about a variety of other problems. For example, hydrogen sulfide will adsorb onto matter and then you can get poisoned by touch. And while the levels they measured are low, it's a heavier-than-air gas which will tend to flow to low-lying areas and then it will concentrate, and the levels in THOSE areas may sometimes cause serious problems and possibly even kill people and animals from time to time. And you won't see it, in the air or when adsorbed onto matter, because it's invisible, and when it's adsorbed onto matter you won't smell it either (but you should never count on smelling it anyway since it causes 'olfactory fatigue' and you quickly stop being ABLE to smell it even if it's present)...

2016-02-18 - Several students sickened by unknown cause, nausea and vomiting, at school in coastal Miami (Florida):
http://www.wsvn.com/story/31254743/several-people-reported-sick-at-maya-angelou-elementary-school-miami-fire-rescue

Quote: "According to City of Miami Fire, four students were transported to the hospital to be treated for nausea and vomiting, Thursday, just before noon. The school is located at 1850 N.W. 32nd St. in Miami. The students were between the ages of 9 to 11. It remains unknown what made them sick."

2016-02-18 - Woman, 69, goes missing while diving near coastal Puako (Hawaii):
http://www.westhawaiitoday.com/news/local-news/coast-guard-fire-department-searching-missing-diver-puako

Note: Hydrogen sulfide is also water-soluble, so swimming around in poison water isn't apt to be too conducive to living a long life. It's also bubbling up from the ocean floors, which is why so many deep-diving or bottom-dwelling ocean creatures have been dying in recent years. Numerous divers, including a world-class free-diver, have died mysteriously in the water, and numerous people have collapsed dead after contact with water or while just being NEAR water. And since hydrogen sulfide doesn't stick around in the body, nobody is likely to find that as a cause, although a smart ME in Kansas City did figure out that a woman was gassed to death in her home by hydrogen sulfide, but he probably did the autopsy quickly after she was dead, within a few hours, before the hydrogen sulfide had degraded entirely. Mostly it's killing people and they just call it 'Sudden Adult Death Sydrome' or 'untimely death' or 'unexplained' or whatever. In any case, the best way to tell if water is contaminated is by touching it or drinking it - if you don't die then it was safe!

Quote: "Nanette Ross owns the motorhome and said it had not been used in over two years. 'There is no reason the motorhome should have caught on fire because we have not been using it and nothing was turned on,' Ross said."

Note: That doesn't matter. It probably still had a battery in it, so there's some electrified copper, and even if the battery was dead or removed then it still had rust on it, and hydrogen sulfide is reactive with rust, no other ignition source necessary. That's why junk vehicles at salvage yards and piles of scrap iron/steel have been bursting into flame...
