Event Update For 2016-12-25

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.

2016-12-25 - Fatal fiery vehicular crashes rising in Massachusetts:
http://www.telegram.com/news/20161225/explanation-sought-for-increase-in-fatal-fiery-crashes

Quote: "It appears, from what little data is available, that there's been a big increase this year in the number of people dying when their vehicles catch fire in crashes - though why that's happened can be hard to explain."

Note: People losing consciousness or slumping over dead at the same time as their vehicle bursts into flame is likely the explanation for at least some of these fatal crashes, and there will be much more of that as time goes on, and not just in Massachusetts...
