2013-11-01 - Underground electrical explosion and fire hits Kingston (New York), near the Hudson River and the East Coast:
http://www.recordonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20131101/NEWS/131039934/-1/NEWS
Note: Hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas and will seek out low-lying areas like underground electrical vaults, sewers, basements, underground car parks, ditches, ravines, valleys, canyons, ponds, streams, creeks, lakes, seas, quays, etc. It is also reactive with copper, especially electrified copper. As a consequence, there have been a rising number of incidents just like this one, including some explosions/fires that have ignited vehicles parked on the street. Might wanna walk around manholes and grates and not park your vehicle(s) near them...

2013-11-02 - Underground electrical fire breaks out in coastal Santa Barbara (California):
http://www.edhat.com/site/tidbit.cfm?nid=124036
Note: Underground electrical fires and explosions have been steadily increasing in frequency as the atmospheric contamination proceeds. Hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas and will tend to accumulate in low-lying areas like underground facilities, basements, ditches, ravines, canyons, valleys, creeks, streams, rivers, ponds, lakes, seas, etc. It is also a highly flammable gas and it is reactive with rusty iron/steel and copper, especially electrified copper, like that found in underground electrical facilities as well as wiring in vehicles and buildings...

2013-11-03 - Recyclers told to check fire precautions by Safety Management UK (Britain):
http://www.prw.com/subscriber/newscat2.html?cat=1&channel=320&id=3789
Quote: "The Environment Agency has already reissued guidance urging waste site operators to step up fire prevention measures following the series of fires at recycling and waste storage depots in recent months."
Quote: "The recent spate of large-scale incidents at recycling plants and sites across the UK has emphasized the need for all operations involved in this kind of work to urgently reassess their fire safety procedures and take a more proactive approach."
Note: From the full hypothesis: "Trash-related facilities such as recycling centers and landfills will burn hard too, as hydrogen sulfide is absorbed into flammable absorbent materials like wood, paper, cardboard, straw, hay, dried brush, generic trash, clothing, cotton, wool."

http://www.kentonline.co.uk/kentish_gazette/news/road-closed-after-manhole-explodes-8386/
Note: I see why the US government is drilling for a large-scale electrical grid failure this month - GridEx II - as mentioned in the 2013-10-18 update. Might wanna have some solar-charging capability handy, at least for lighting, just in case. Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. You can pick up a pack of those solar-powered garden lights, cheap...

2013-11-06 - Electrical explosion and fire takes one unit offline at nuclear plant in Shippingport (Pennsylvania):
http://www.post-gazette.com/local/2013/11/06/Minor-fire-closes-one-unit-at-Shippingport-nuclear-plant/stories/201311060153http://www.poconorecord.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20131106/NEWS90/131109752/-1/rss01
Quote: "A Beaver County nuclear power plant remains offline today as workers with FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Co. check damage from an explosion and electrical wiring fire that broke out Tuesday evening."
Note: Much like all the 'electrical fires' hitting vehicles, but on a bigger scale, with greater effects. Hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper, especially electrified copper. It's also a heavier-than-air gas and will tend to accumulate in low-lying areas when the wind isn't blowing it on. All nuclear plants require water for cooling, meaning they are all near a low-lying area; that's why the water is there - water is also obviously heavier than air. This nuclear plant is right next to the Ohio River. The huge new multi-billion-dollar NSA complex in Utah can't function now because electrical units outside the facility keep mysteriously exploding and burning, as mentioned in the 2013-10-08 update. An underground electrical fire just hit coastal Manhattan (New York), as mentioned in the 2013-11-04 update.
It's not hard to extrapolate out with this problem. If we could stop the atmospheric contamination problem, we would have done it before it had gathered such momentum. Since we didn't stop the problem when it was weaker, we certainly can't stop it NOW. So it will get worse and worse and worse, like an invisible tidal wave of doom rising around us. Complete electrical grid collapse? The US government is training for just that, this month, GridEx II, as mentioned in the 2013-10-18 update. Sounds like some prudent training to me.

2013-11-08 - Strange odor closes school in Charlotte (North Carolina):
http://www.wbtv.com/story/23914890/charlotte-school-closed-froday-due-to-strange-odor-firefighters-say
Quote: "Officials at Charlotte Secondary School have closed the school for the day due to an undetermined odor inside the school. Firefighters were called to the school Friday morning on the 8600 block of McAlpine Park Drive to investigate an odor, according to the Charlotte Fire Department. Investigators have not been able to determine what the cause of the odor is."
Note: Lots of 'strange odor' incidents and HazMat events the last couple of years. It may not be long now before entire schools full of kids start dropping dead. For now the deaths are mainly single individuals, people dropping dead in their homes, on streets, in cars, that sort of thing, but that won't last forever. Still, just the fact that you can now be gassed to death in your home or car should be of some concern to anyone who wants to, you know, REMAIN LIVING...

2013-11-14 - Hydrogen sulfide belching from landfill in Bridgeton (Missouri), residents alarmed:
http://www.kmov.com/news/just-posted/More-landfill-health-risks-concern-Bridgeton-residents-231992231.html
Quote: "The stinky smell is not the problem anymore in Bridgeton. Now, there’s concern the landfill is putting something else into the air that could pose a real danger to workers and residents nearby. It’s a chemical compound called hydrogen sulfide and according to the health department report, half the days in the last four weeks, air monitors have showed levels that exceeded 'health-based guidelines.' In high concentrations, it can kill a person."
Note: This is the landfill that has an underground fire burning toward an adjacent landfill that houses illegally-dumped nuclear waste from the Manhattan Project. This hydrogen sulfide problem here is a microcosm of the planetary extinction event that is now underway. The oceans are becoming more 'landfill-like' as waters around the world heat up. (All the sh#t and trash we've dumped into the oceans probably hasn't helped matters any either, though this problem would likely have occurred regardless, as it has numerous times in the past.) The heat is also releasing methane stored in methane clathrate deposits, and the ancient anaerobic bacteria and archaea that emit hydrogen sulfide are eating that methane and turning it into hydrogen sulfide.
In June, the City of Roxbury (New Jersey) began drawing up evacuation plans because of hydrogen sulfide from a nearby landfill, as mentioned in the 2013-06-14 update. A rotten egg odor is wafting in from the ocean in Quincy (Massachusetts), as mentioned in the 2013-05-09 update. The Inner Harbor recently suddenly changed color to milky-white-green in coastal Baltimore, with a sulfur odor smelled, and all the fish there were found dead, as mentioned in the 2013-07-18 update. Hydrogen sulfide has been detected in a number of areas along the coast in California, it was detected coming up from the ground near a school in Canada, it was detected in the ground in southern Florida, a woman was killed by hydrogen sulfide in her home in Kansas, and so on. This is the ancient planetary extinction event that has once again reared its ugly head and is now upon us...

Note: And the day prior, a 4-year-old girl burned to death when an RV burst into flame in the South Valley in Bernalillo County (New Mexico), plus two other people were found burned to death in or near burned-out vehicles, as mentioned in the 2013-11-15 update. From the full hypothesis: "Vehicles of all kinds will continue to burn, as they have been, and the number of vehicular fires will continue to escalate, inevitably resulting in a corresponding increase in the number of people being incinerated in their vehicles."

Quote: "Oakland firefighters also responded to a two-alarm fire at 54th Avenue and International Boulevard Thursday night. The fire broke out at a vacant building that used to house a supermarket."
Note: Hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper, especially electrified copper, thus all the underground electrical fires and explosions, the 'electrical fires' in vehicles (whether running or not), etc. A big EMP or solar flare is not necessary to take out the electrical grid. A change in the atmosphere will do the job just fine...

Note: Obviously, once we run out of tractor trailers, food and gas will get pretty scarce at grocery stores and gas stations. I have no idea how many semi tractors are cranked out each day, but once they start getting destroyed faster than they're built (if that's not already the case), then running out of them becomes just a matter of time...

http://www.johnsoncitypress.com/article/112820/man-suffers-burns-when-pants-vehicle-catch-fire-at-east-tennessee-gas-station
Quote: "Battalion Chief Charles Patton said a 32-year-old man was pumping gas into his vehicle when a fire erupted, catching his pants on fire, as well as part of the vehicle. Eyewitnesses said the man initially panicked and ran. A couple of people grabbed portable fire extinguishers and extinguished the fire on the man and his vehicle."
Quote: "'I don't smoke, nor use my cell phones when pumping gas,' says Nikki May."
Note: This sounds VERY much like the work of the Ghostly Match. I specifically mentioned refueling: "Would you siphon gas or refuel your vehicle if there was a lit match right there? Of course not, but you won't SEE the match until it's struck." In other words, anytime you go to gas up, don't count on not catching fire, because you just might. Just ask Nikki May...

2013-11-26 - Mysterious explosion alarms residents of Saint-Lazare (Canada):

http://westislandgazette.com/news/story/2013/11/26/loud-explosion-like-noise-heard-across-off-island-west-island/
Quote: "What was that boom? What was that flash of light? And where were they coming from? Hudson, St-Lazare and towns farther afield were rocked briefly by the sound of an explosion and a flash of blue-green light in the night sky at around 8 p.m. Tuesday. But the source of the big boom remains a mystery."
Note: Lots of bodies of water around this area. These mysterious explosions - sometimes accompanied by a flash of light - are likely atmospheric hydrogen sulfide and/or methane plumes finding an ignition source and detonating. Methane burns blue and hydrogen sulfide burns green. The flash of light was blue-green. These mysterious explosions really started getting going a couple of years back, right around the time that methane releases around the world began accelerating and 'rotten egg' odors started being mentioned with some frequency. That's not a coincidence. Eventually these explosions may rival those generated by small nuclear bombs, like the fission explosion that destroyed Hiroshima, but minus the radiation. Poison gas, fires and explosions are the reasons governments around the world have been industriously constructing underground facilities; living on the surface of the Earth will be impossible. Don't tell me they've forgotten to mention that to you!?

2013-11-27 - Small plane explodes and breaks apart, near Loveland (Colorado), 1 killed:
http://www.9news.com/rss/story.aspx?storyid=366487www.denverpost.com/news/ci_24611893/rescuers-respond-plane-crash-water-south-longmont
Quote: "The sheriff's office confirmed the plane had pieces falling off of it when it went down Wednesday afternoon. Witnesses said they heard a large explosion just before the plane began to break apart."
Note: Well, I've been expecting planes to start exploding in mid-air, and here's one. People aren't likely to pay much attention when it's a small plane like this one, but once commercial airliners start exploding regularly - which seems inevitable and could start any time - then I suspect that might open peoples' eyes a bit...

2013-11-28 - Transformer bursts into flame in coastal Brooklyn (New York), trains disrupted:

Quote: "A raging fire on a Brooklyn subway track left hordes of hungry holiday straphangers stuck without Brooklyn-bound train service for hours Thursday..."
Note: And two days prior, a fire broke out in the subway in coastal London (Britain), disrupting mass transit there, as mentioned in the 2013-11-26 update. Both New York City and London conducted tests this year to see where a heavier-than-air gas would go once in their respective subway systems. Coincidence? Hah, not a chance. Both the US and UK governments are aware of the atmospheric hydrogen sulfide and methane contamination problem and so they know that hydrogen sulfide - a heavier-than-air gas - will be getting into the subways and causing problems, so they ran the tests to try to identify weaknesses and presumably (one would hope) work to address them. Looks like whatever mitigation measures they've tried aren't working too well though...

2013-11-29 - Mysterious explosions - four - alarm residents in and near coastal Stonington Connecticut:
http://www.nbcconnecticut.com/news/local/Mysterious-Booms-Heard-in-Southeastern-Connecticut-233837611.htmlhttp://www.courant.com/community/stonington/hc-stonington-booms-1130-20131129,0,3595199.story
Quote: "Stonington police said they received more than 100 calls from people across the town who reported hearing at least four loud 'booms'. They got their first call at 9:11 a.m., police said."
Quote: "Police have stopped actively investigating explosive sounds that shook homes in Old Mystic Friday after being unable to find the source of the booms."
Note: These mysterious explosions are very likely caused by atmospheric hydrogen sulfide and/or methane finding an ignition source and detonating. Eventually these explosions may rival those caused by small fission bombs, like the one that destroyed Hiroshima, but without the radiatation. Off the East Coast there are 2.5 gigatons of methane clathrates dissociating. If efficiently distributed (which thankfully won't happen), that's enough explosive force to wipe out the 1000 largest cities on the planet, just in that ONE deposit. New evacuation signs went up along the East Coast in 2012, very possibly as preparation for when the coast really starts burning and exploding hard-core...

Quote: "The Feng Yu Covered Bridge, in Chongqing, China, is known throughout the Far East for its traditional beauty topped by a pagoda-style roof that stretched 303 metres across the region's Apeng River. But last night the five-metre-wide crossing, first built in 1591, collapsed into the waters as the blaze turned it to ashes."
Note: A bridge over the Colorado River burst into flame in the wee hours in Parker (Arizona) not long ago too, as mentioned in the 2013-09-23 update. Numerous vehicles have burst into flame on bridges as well, especially in the last six months or so...
