Like the hydrogen sulfide that swept over Southern California a few months back: that was probably HUGE, but very low in concentration (else people wouldn't have smelled it). But because it's a heavier-than-air gas, that huge low-concentration plume would have sunk to the ground and concentrated in ditches, valleys, streams, etc, the plumes shrinking but getting more concentrated, then blowing on with the wind...<br />Jonny Mnemonichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06516458612879773986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4388504906915444063.post-54354024618855334382013-06-25T03:01:59.727-05:002013-06-25T03:01:59.727-05:00I think pretty small. You ever see those lava lamp...I think pretty small. You ever see those lava lamps? Well, if you shake em a bit, how small are some of the 'lava' balls? Pretty freakin' small! So I think the same concept probably applies.<br /><br />But I did mention thaty maybe it was the hand sanitizer, or even water, that got contaminated there. There was a library in Ohio that was closed because hydrogen sulfide infiltrated the building via a water sump; it came in through contaminated outdoor water. It is water-soluble, so while it may blow in as a gas, it looks like it's going to absorb into stuff: clothes, wood, water and water-based fluids, rubber, cardboard, paper, etc.<br /><br />There was a story about a homeless guy in California, went to the emergency room, felt sick, and suddenly everyone in the mergency room got sick too. His clothes were probably contaminated, and oozing gas, sickened him AND everyone he got near.<br /><br />So while the gas will exit the ocean as a gas, and blow across the world as a gas, it will also absorb into stuff, so we'll have to deal with not only the gas, but all the stuff it's contaminated too. And eventually stuff absorbs so much that it just spontaneously combusts, and then you have pallets and decks and porches and clothes and tires bursting into flame.<br /><br />As to where the gas might come from in a hospital in GAS form, the obvious answer would be the air intake system for their central heat/air system, outside somewhere. The hospital near me has their central air system right out in back, on a little concrete pedestal. Any gas that blows over that is gonna get pulled inside the hospital. Same for most homes and their central air units, and apartments, hotels, etc. That's probably how that engaged couple got killed on New Years in a vehicle too. It was cold, so they probably had their heat on and windows rolled up, but some gas still got in via the car's heating system, knocked them unconscious, then ignited and they burned to death without ever even trying to get out.<br />Jonny Mnemonichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06516458612879773986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4388504906915444063.post-31388183536183081892013-06-25T02:46:39.644-05:002013-06-25T02:46:39.644-05:00Do you have any clue as to how small these hydroge...Do you have any clue as to how small these hydrogen sulfide plumes can be? I'm thinking of the little girl whose clothes burst into flame at the hospital. Where would the hydrogen sulfide come from in a hospital? Why wouldn't the same thing happen to other people near her room? I mean, can hydrogen sulfide be in such small plumes that one person is affected, while someone not very far away is not? Btw, I happen to think that your theory is correct. I'm just trying to understand the dynamics of the plumes. I figure that they can easily get very large. What I'm curious about is how SMALL they can be (at whatever concentration). Correct me if I am wrong, but I see the size of the plume and its concentration as two different aspects of the same phenomenon. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
