Event Update For 2020-02-16

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.

2020-02-16 - China destroying cash from areas most affected by the coronavirus, other areas to disinfect cash:

http://www.thedailybeast.com/china-to-destroy-paper-currency-from-hardest-hit-coronavirus-regions
http://nypost.com/2020/02/16/chinese-bank-to-destroy-cash-in-areas-hit-by-coronavirus/
http://slate.com/news-and-politics/2020/02/china-quarantine-cash-bills-currency-money-coronavirus-spread.html
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-02-15/china-quarantines-cash-to-sanitize-old-bank-notes-from-virus

Quote: "China’s central bank says it plans to destroy most of the banknotes collected by hospitals, markets, and buses in some regions hard hit by the new coronavirus. Fan Yifei, deputy governor of the Chinese central bank, said they plan to out pump 600 billion yuan ($85.6 billion) of freshly printed paper currency to replace the bills taken out of circulation."

Quote: "In other areas of the country, the government has ordered banks to remove incoming paper currency from circulation and replace it with the new cash. They have been directed to keep the cash under quarantine for 14 days and disinfect it at high temperatures and with ultraviolet light before returning it to the public."

Note: So they're destroying a lot of money and the rest will have to be quarantined and sterilized for 14 days. This is another one of those examples where it's best to pay attention to what they do, not what they say. I've never heard of any government destroying vast amounts of cash because of an outbreak before, not for pneumonic plague outbreaks, not for the Spanish Flu of 1918, not for SARS, not for MERS, not for anything. I'm not saying it's a bad idea and that they shouldn't do it. I'm saying that the actions they are taking are the kind of unprecedented actions you might expect to see a nation take to combat a veritable doomsday virus, not some virus no more dangerous than the flu...

http://www.sott.net/article/429375-Mystery-in-Spains-Catalonia-as-hundreds-of-dead-birds-appear-on-highway

Quote: "According to the version offered by the group, testimonies from the neighbors of the area where the birds were found talked about the area emitting 'strong smells.'"

Quote: "This February 17, as reported by El Periódico de Cataluña, the Department of Rural Agents of Catalonia said that the poisoning of animals does not seem a probable cause because the birds 'were concentrated in a very specific place on the road' and because there was no more affected fauna in the surroundings."

Note: Sounds VERY much like poisoning. Birds are more susceptible to poison gases than most animals due to their high respiration rate and low body mass, thus the use of canaries in coal mines as detectors of carbon monoxide and methane. Strong smell, pile of dead birds, on the coast. A chemical plant exploded and burned in Tarragona the month before too, mentioned in the 2020-01-14 update...
