Event Update For 2013-04-12

 

Yesterday, in the 2013-04-11 update, a very kind German-speaker (thorondor) posted a large-ish list of matching recent events with links and some English translation in the comments section. Hopefully he (or she?) will do so again. That's something I can't do - I only really speak or read English, so while I was sure that everything was going on in other countries too, I was never able to show as much info in any other language as thorondor did. It's worth a look at the 2013-04-11 update just to see that this stuff is going on in Europe too, and I'm sure elsewhere as well since this is a planetary problem.

Thanks, thorondor! ;)

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.

2013-04-12 - Another underground electrical fire erupts, this time in downtown Minneapolis (Minnesota):

http://kstp.com/news/stories/s2995898.shtml
http://www.myfoxtwincities.com/story/21952396/downtown-minneapolis-power-outage-caused-by-electrical-fire
http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2013/04/12/electrical-fire-blacks-out-part-of-downtown-minneapolis/

 

Quote: "Electricity was out for more than 90 minutes Friday morning in several blocks of downtown Minneapolis, darkening City Hall and police headquarters as well as many office buildings..."

 

Quote: "According to Xcel Energy, the power had to be shut off around 6 a.m. due to a fire that started around midnight in a vault underneath the U.S. Bank Plaza building..."

 

Note: And yet another underground explosion and fire. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly flammable heavier-than-air gas which will seek out the lowest-lying areas it can reach, like underground electrical vaults, sewers, basements, etc. Hydrogen sulfide is also reactive with copper, especially 'hot' copper with a charge running through it, like that found in underground electrical facilities. The previous underground fire/explosion was in coastal New Orleans (Louisiana) the day prior, as mentioned in the 2013-04-11 update. The one before that was just one day prior, in Hackensack (New Jersey), as mentioned in the 2013-04-10 update. Events involving underground electrical fires and explosions are clearly escalating, which only makes sense, as the oceans, seas and lakes are going to continue pumping increasing amounts of hydrogen sulfide into the atmosphere as time goes on. This one problem may ultimately turn out the lights on human civilization.

 

Obviously, we cannot control the influx of hydrogen sulfide into the atmosphere, so we're trying to repair damage as it happens. While that may be possible to some reasonable degree now, what happens when the problem is 100 times worse than it is now? What happens when it's 10,000 times worse? We won't be able to keep up; we'll be overwhelmed. If we're not losing ground already then we will be soon. Once we reach that point then the end of human civilization on the surface of the Earth is assured. The decline is apt to be rapid, taking most people by surprise...

2013-04-12 - Home under renovation damaged by fire in Indianapolis (Indiana), possible explosion:
http://www.wishtv.com/dpp/news/local/marion_county/fire-damages-house-under-renovation

Quote: "Neighbors to the vacant residence at 327 S. Walcott St. reported hearing a loud sound and then they lost electrical power to their homes around 3:15 a.m."

Note: Loud sound may have been an explosion. Also, wee hours again, which is when the atmosphere cools and contracts, which will push any hydrogen sulfide or methane floating above closer to the ground...

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/crime/9992318/Poison-gas-theory-as-woman-laboratory-technician-and-daughters-found-dead.html

Quote: "The police were knocking on doors telling everyone to get inside and close their windows because there had been a chemical incident."

Note: Their working theory is that the mother used her knowledge of chemistry to kill her daughters and herself by mixing up some poison gas. Hey, ya never know. Could simply be that some poisonous hydrogen sulfide gas blew in off the ocean and killed them. Seems like that'd be more likely...

2013-04-12 - Newlywed couple, 26 and 21, found dead at home in 2nd Cross, Noornagar, Kothanur (India):

Quote: "The motive for their death is yet to be ascertained, as the couple, who had entered wedlock just two months ago, were said to be happily married."

Note: Their working theory is that this happy young couple who just got married suddenly decided it was time to kill themselves and ate some poison. Well, that's one (insanely illogical) theory. Or, maybe some poisonous hydrogen sulfide blew through an open window at their home and killed them. That seems more likely to me.

Note: They also found two other vehicles in there. I've been sure for some time now that people are getting a whiff of hydrogen sulfide, losing consciousness, and plowing into ponds and lakes and streams while driving. The gas doesn't have to be concentrated enough to kill you for you to die this way, because breathing is an involuntary reflex. Once unconscious and in the water, you will drown...
