Event Update For 2016-10-31





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.

Quote: "It is very strange and impossible to believe that my brother would die inside a nine feet swimming pool. Joshua was a very good swimmer."

Note: Doesn't matter how good a swimmer you are once hydrogen sulfide knocks you unconscious or dead. Lifeguards have died at their pools, Navy SEALs have died in pools, world class divers have died while diving, yada yada. The best way to tell if water is dangerous is to get in it. If you don't die then it's probably fine...

http://www.thedailyherald.sx/islands/61280-300-pupils-evacuated-at-leonard-connor-school

Quote: "CAY BAY–300 pupils from the Leonard Connor School were evacuated on Monday morning because of a substance suspected to be sulphur dioxide in the air at the school. One teacher fainted and was unable to go to the St. Maarten Medical Center (SMMC) because there was only one ambulance in service busy with another emergency."

Quote: "We have pupils who get nose bleeds and suffer from short breaths and today we had to evacuate because one of the teachers fainted."

Note: Here's a Google Maps link of the area. So they don't know what it is, but they suspect sulfur dioxide. Maybe they're right, or maybe it's hydrogen sulfide oozing up through the ground or blowing ashore from the ocean right there. Both gases have a similar sulfury odor. Either way, not good...
