Jumping Jack Flash Hypothesis: It's A Gas Gas Gas: Event Update For 2019-02-27

Event Update For 2019-02-27

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.foxnews.com/travel/alaska-airlines-passengers-crew-treated-after-strange-odor-forces-flight-to-divert

Quote: "An Alaska Airlines flight bound from Chicago’s O’Hare Airport to Seattle made an unscheduled landing at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport on Wednesday night after a foul odor sickened some passengers and flight attendants."

Quote: "Eight people reported feeling ill, with four crew members taken to a hospital for further evaluation."

Note: More people on another passenger plane were sickened by an unknown odor the day before too, mentioned in the 2019-02-26 update, so that's two days in a row that unknown foul odors have sickened people and caused passenger planes to make emergency landings. These events are obviously becoming more common. An increasingly contaminated atmosphere begets increasing numbers of 'odor events'. Pretty simple. It's nothing to worry about as long you're not one of those wanna-stay-alive types. THOSE people are gonna have big problems!

What's the commonality with canals in Bristol and this coastal area in Florida? Bodies of water, low-lying areas...people dying.

Jeez, Jonny - don't let them close you down. Start lookin' around for an independent platform like a lot of the conservative sites have done. Of course eventually, it will all come to an end [see first post below].

Dang! That train accident must have been unbelievable!

Nearly 50 per cent of India facing drought as groundwater depletion increases – “We are not enhancing groundwater recharge, and drought conditions are making us extract more and more water”

Nearly 50 per cent of the country is currently facing drought with at least 16 per cent falling in the “exceptional” or “extreme” category, according to IIT Gandhinagar scientists managing India’s real time drought prediction system.

This ongoing drought will pose a lot of challenges in water availability this summer, Vimal Mishra, associate professor at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) here, told PTI. [more]

The Hunger Games 'Conomy: Donny Or Dog Food
http://ponziworld.blogspot.com/2019/03/the-hunger-games-donny-or-dog-food.html

Over the past four decades the U.S. stock market has gone full Ponzi. Stock buybacks are now 4% of GDP, equal to the U.S. Federal deficit by way of the tax cut. Whereas previously it was a means for investment, now it's become a means for disinvestment:

American Prospect: The Tax Cut Is Not About Investment:
"The Republicans’ Tax Act is supposed to provide companies with extra after-tax profits that, through productive investments, will create jobs for Americans. Instead of helping to rebuild the vanishing middle class, however, the tax savings will further enrich shareholders through stock buybacks and cash dividends. With share prices inflated by stock buybacks, the richest U.S. households will extract even more value from the economy"

Why would they purposefully gin up tax refunds knowing that it won't matter overall?

Because the smoke and mirrors economy is imploding [more]

Squeaky wheel gets the grease. I squawked at Facebook for blocking all links to this site, and they seem to have reassessed and restored things to normality. As they should have - I don't violate any of their terms or conditions (racism, nudity, inciting violence, etc). Maybe a tad bit of profanity here and there, but I don't think I overdo it.
