Event Update For 2014-03-31





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.

Note: The home construction industry and mortuary and headstone businesses might fare pretty well with all these homes exploding. Explosive economic growth! I swear, I can put a positive spin on just about anything...

http://www.kptv.com/story/25118846/natural-gas-explosion-reported-in-plymouth-wa

Quote: "A large explosion and fire Monday at natural gas processing plant near the Washington-Oregon border injured four workers and led to the evacuation of about 200 people from nearby homes as flames and a mushroom-shaped cloud of black smoke reached high into the air. The 8:20 a.m. blast at the Williams Northwest Pipeline plant in the town of Plymouth, along the Columbia River, also punctured a liquefied natural gas storage tank."

2014-03-31 - Landfill burns in coastal Sydney (Australia), residents worried about toxic smoke:
http://au.news.yahoo.com/nsw/a/22304503/fire-fears/

Quote: "The fear of deadly toxins, though, was only heightened as fire fighters used asbestos proof suits to assess the mountain of smoking rubble, which has forced families to shut themselves inside their homes."

Quote: "But the police and RMS wanted to know if motorists were exposed to steaming piles of toxic rubble, while Fire and Rescue confirmed air safety checks were confined to the site. Mr Wren added: 'We do have a Hazmat Unit here spasmodically monitoring the smoke to make sure it's safe again for the workers and for Fire and Rescue staff.'"

Note: I think he meant 'sporadically', unless the people doing the measuring are having spasms, which actually wouldn't be too shocking. Also, will updated tourism literature mention the deadly toxins blowing around there? Just curious!

2014-03-31 - Landfill erupts in flame, flames 200 feet high, on the island of Anguilla (Britain):
http://www.thedailyherald.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=46862:large-fire-burns-at-corito-landfill&catid=1:islands-news&Itemid=54

Quote: "Fire Consultant Jim Bunting from the United Kingdom described the fire as severe, with flames up to 200 feet high and covering an area of about two acres. Black billowing smoke was seen over much of the south and western areas of the island. The fire burnt profusely due to the amount of combustible material in the metal objects."

2014-03-31 - Underground fire could endanger community if it reaches nuclear waste, in Bridgeton (Missouri):
http://news.stlpublicradio.org/post/new-epa-analysis-community-could-be-risk-if-landfill-fire-reaches-radioactive-waste-bridgeton
http://www.stltoday.com/news/opinion/editorial-concern-about-the-bridgeton-landfills-is-not-enough/article_6281bf00-dc6a-5f07-a466-28e01a671794.html

Quote: "The EPA agrees that the heat will not make the waste more or less radioactive, or cause it to explode. But since no one knows what else is mixed in with the radioactive waste, a subsurface fire could potentially react with those unknown substances, causing an explosion."

Note: So we could theoretically see explosions blowing radioactive material into the air, and radon gas spewing out, if the underground fire reaches the nuclear waste. I hope it didn't take any rocket scientists to figure out that it'd be bad news...

2014-03-31 - Pilot smells smoke, passenger plane makes emergency landing in coastal Jamaica:

2014-03-31 - Tractor trailer bursts into flame on Highway 1 in Langley area of coastal Vancouver (Canada), another overturns:
http://bc.ctvnews.ca/semi-fire-rollover-cause-delays-on-highway-1-in-langley-1.1754685
http://www.langleytimes.com/news/253277751.html
http://vancouver.cityandpress.com/node/7614034

Quote: "A semi-truck fire and an unrelated rollover snarled traffic in both directions at 232nd Street Monday afternoon. The blaze broke out in the eastbound lanes near 232nd Street Monday afternoon, leaving little of the truck on the road beyond its charred wheels. A container truck hauling chicken feed in the other direction toppled into a ditch not far away, spilling its cargo all over the highway."

Note: One big rig burning and another overturning, same highway, different sides, same time - wouldn't be so sure those were unrelated. They definitely had a few things in common: timeframe, geographic area and the atmosphere...

http://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/Cal-Fire-at-Peak-Staffing-as-Wildfire-Activity-Remains-High-253257841.html

Quote: "Cal Fire crews today will go into 24-hour stand-by mode at fire stations in Riverside, San Bernardino and San Diego counties in the face of tinderbox conditions exacerbated by meager winter rainfall. The seasonal workforce increases in Southern California don't typically begin until May or June. So far this year, Cal Fire has responded to more than 800 wildfires. In an average year, its personnel would typically fight fewer than 275 blazes."

Note: So, a month or two before they would normally call up seasonal workers and already they've fought more than 800 fires compared to 275 for an average year! That's a huuuuuge increase...

http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/site/?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=EQ-20140331-43197-CHN

Quote: "Zigui and nearby counties are not traditionally associated with earthquakes, according to the historic record. Some 18 earthquakes were recorded in 2003 when the Three Gorges project started operation, the 21st Century Business Herald reported. Neighboring Badong county had one earthquake in 1,000 years before 1985. Between 2003 and 2011, there have been more than 70 earthquakes of magnitude-2 or stronger, the Beijing-based newspaper reported."

Note: Three Gorges holds a whole lot of water, and water is heavy, so all that extra mass is adding stress to the underlying geology. The same thing is happening all around the world as vast amounts of mass flow from the thick continental plates to the thin oceanic plates as the ice around the world melts away, resulting in more quakes and volcanic eruptions, especially in the oceans and near coastlines...

Event Update For 2014-03-30





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.

Note: 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."

http://www.wsoctv.com/news/news/local/east-charlotte-home-destroyed-fire/nfN4k/

Quote: "An early morning explosion and fire destroyed a west Charlotte home. There’s very little left to the mobile home on Shane Lane near Wilkinson Boulevard.  The blast and fire also damaged the home next door. According to neighbors, the blast happened around 12 a.m. Sunday morning."

Note: Four homes exploded the day prior, mentioned in the 2014-03-29 update. Clearly homes - and other structures too - are exploding at an accelerating rate. And people are sleeping through this?! They won't be sleeping when their home blows up, I guarantee that! (Unless it's the permanent kind of 'sleep', of course.)

Quote: "Garden City and Pooler fire crews worked for about eight hours to extinguish a fire at Newell Recycling on Sonny Perdue Drive earlier today. Amy Headrick, with the Garden City Fire Department, said the blaze started around 4 a.m. Sunday morning. 'It was basically a big scrap pile of ground up cars that caught fire. Just a big debris pile,' Headrick said."

Quote: "Officials said about 500 tons of recycled materials caught fire."

Note: Any rust on the metal? Rhetorical question...

Note: They 'believe' this was arson. Witnesses, motive, forensics, surveillance footage? Nope, nope, nope, nope. Not a terrible assumption in normal times, though competent detectives don't start with any assumptions. Terrible assumption for the present. Maybe they'll cough up some of that evidence stuff at some point though. It has happened before, albeit rarely. In the meantime, just looks like more parked vehicles spontaneously igniting in the wee hours, which is when the atmosphere cools and contracts, which will push any hydrogen sulfide or methane in the air above closer to the ground. Peoria is also right next to the Illinois River and Upper Peoria Lake...

Note: All of the above vehicle fires were in parked vehicles. Vehicles need not be running nor have been running recently in order to spontaneously ignite now. Any rust or any electrified copper is all it takes, and virtually all vehicles have one or the other, and most vehicles have both. As a consequence, parked vehicles are going up in flames all over the place and, because people are unaware of the problem, a lot of homes and businesses are going up in flames too, after the vehicle fires spread...

Note: Any porch or deck that has exposed rust (nails, screws, hinges, brackets, whatever) or electrified copper (exterior lights, dimmer switches, doorbells, electrical outlets) is increasingly in danger of igniting. These fires can be very dangerous because they start on the outside, so indoor smoke detectors may not go off until the fire has grown and cut off avenues of escape. Also, many of these fires occur in the wee hours when people are sleeping, though that wasn't the case this time...

Quote: "Since there were no injuries on the man's body, police think the man died of natural causes."

Note: So if someone drinks or breathes poison, or is suffocated with a pillow, they'd call that 'natural causes' too. India might wanna hire some monkeys to replace these boobs. Same quality of work, but monkeys will work for bananas!

http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/site/?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=VIV-20140331-43195-USA

Quote: "The crew and passengers experienced a scare in the sky today when the flight had to turn around and make an emergency landing where it was met by Honolulu fire trucks. 'The alarm went off, and there was a strange smell which is hard to explain, and the cabin had lost pressure,' said eTN Publisher Juergen Steinmetz, who was a passenger on the flight."

Note: Probably a good idea they turned back else they might have turned into another disappearing plane...

http://rt.com/news/yellowstone-national-park-earthquake-225/

Quote: "A 4.8 earthquake shook the northern part of Yellowstone National Park early Sunday. The University of Utah Seismograph Stations reports the earthquake occurred at 6:34 a.m. about 4 miles north-northeast of the Norris Geyser Basin. The university reports it was felt in the Montana border towns of West Yellowstone and Gardiner, both about 20 miles from the epicenter. There were no immediate reports of damage. There are few visitors in the park this time of year. Yellowstone sees frequent small earthquakes. Since Thursday, there have been at least 25 recorded in the nation's first national park."
