Event Update For 2017-05-01

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.

http://www.nj.com/ocean/index.ssf/2017/05/one_dead_in_car_fire_in_woods_authorities_say.html

Quote: "When emergency personnel responded to the scene of a fire near the Mills Wildlife Management Area, their attention turned from the cause of the fire to the discovery of a dead person in the front seat of a burned car."

Quote: "Sramaty said foul play is not suspected, but the investigation is continuing."

2017-05-01 - Person found dead in burning car along Clinton Road near Clinton Reservoir (New Jersey):
http://www.northjersey.com/story/news/passaic/west-milford/2017/05/02/west-milford-police-car-fire-victim-not-local/309127001/
http://patch.com/new-jersey/wayne/body-found-burned-jeep-n-j-roadway-west-milford

Quote: "The fatal accident was discovered Sunday at roughly 10 p.m. on a remote, yet relatively straight section of Clinton Road just beyond the new bridge at the northern end of the Clinton Reservoir, police said. The vehicle was headed southbound and ended up approximately 50 feet into the woods, where it was found on fire, police said. There are char marks in the roadway and a memorial marking the site. West Milford Fire Companies No. 1, 2 and 4 all responded to the scene to extinguish the blaze. The road, which cuts through preserved Newark-owned watershed, is a local tourist attraction."

Note: They found the car burning off the road, but they found char marks ON the road, so this car was on fire BEFORE it went off the road. The person found burned to death on the other car fire - that car had only heat and fire damage, no crash damage, so it probably caught fire and then ran off the road too. As more and more cars go up in flames, this will be increasingly common: finding a person burned to death in a burning car on or off the road. That's already way more common than it used to be, but this problem - people burning to death in their vehicles - will get waaaaaay worse. Here's a Google Maps link that shows the locations of both charred corpses...

Note: Not the worst way to go!

2017-05-01 - Woman in her 20s has 'medical emergency' in the wee hours, car hits unmarked police car, in Houston (Texas), 1 killed:
http://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Woman-dead-after-crash-with-Houston-police-car-11111255.php
http://www.khou.com/news/local/woman-killed-in-crash-with-hpd-officer/435487995

Quote: "A woman is dead after she slammed her vehicle into an undercover Houston police car on the North Freeway Monday morning. The woman, described only as being in her late 20s, was driving northbound after 12 a.m. when it appears she suffered a medical emergency near the Crosstimbers exit that caused her to lose control of her car, said William McPherson with the Houston Police Department."

Note: URL says 'woman dead after crash', but it may actually have been 'woman dead BEFORE crash', since people are randomly slumping over dead, including while driving, and having a corpse at the wheel often causes a crash...

Quote: "Carroll says it's not clear what caused Chipman to cross the line, and police likely won't know anything more until a routine toxicology report is returned. He says it's possible it was a medical issue."

Note: The man who caused the crash may have died while driving. That'll be happening more and more as time goes on - people slumping over dead as they drive - and corpses don't tend to make the safest of drivers. Driverless cars will solve some of these problems. People will still continue to slump over dead in driverless vehicles, of course, but that won't necessarily cause the vehicle to crash...
