http://www.northescambia.com/2016/04/residents-report-series-of-explosions-for-a-second-week

Note: People just saw 'something fall from the sky' and ignite a brush fire near coastal Hollywood (Florida) too, on the southern tip of Florida, mentioned in the 2016-04-15 update.

Sometimes the gas plumes will explode too. Some of these 'mysterious explosions' in recent times have left a 'sulfur smell' behind. When that happens, there's likely some hydrogen sulfide in the gas plume. Otherwise, it's probably mostly or entirely methane...

What were the methane levels in the air and in the ground at these buildings? Ah, nobody is even checking, so no one will ever know what caused these explosions. These are the 114th, 115th and 116th residential explosions in 2016...

http://krqe.com/blog/2016/04/19/roswell-police-investigate-suspicious-car-fire/

Quote: "Police are still investigating. They say it’s too early to tell if it’s connected to the rash of car and home arsons across the city. No one has ever been arrested for those crimes."

Note: They never eliminated accidental causes - like hydrogen sulfide's reactivity with rusty iron/steel and electrified copper - for any of those fires, which means they don't even know if there WERE any crimes, so they're just making assumptions based on ignorance. Competent investigators don't make assumptions...
