Event Update For 2016-08-24

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.

2016-08-24 - Underwear bursts into flame in parked car at auto shop in Madison (Wisconsin):
http://www.channel3000.com/news/burning-underwear-cause-small-fire-in-mustang-officials-say/41370716
http://www.nbc15.com/content/news/Firefighters-respond-to-smoking-car-and-find-burning-underwear-391341481.html

Quote: "According to the release, when firefighters got the car open, they found a pair of burning underwear on the passenger seat, which had produced a small fire."

Note: Doesn't seem like that big of a deal, a pair of underwear igniting. But the ramifications - clothing is spontaneously combusting. What happens when it's clothing that someone is wearing? Mostly that's fatal. So far as I know, the woman who burst into flame while sitting on a park bench at a seaside park in coastal Flensburg, Germany, did not die, but virtually everyone else who's burst into flame has died. That event was mentioned in the 2015-11-05 update. These events aren't 'spontaneous human combustion'. It's the clothes that are combusting...
