Event Update For 2014-04-02





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.

    Don't ya just love it when a township named North East is located in the extreme North WEST of the state?

    Philly with a runaway burning pick-up. Real glad I don't live in or near a barn - whew, that's a lot of barns burning down! However, Phoenixville isn't far from here and a vacant shed in a vacant garage can't have too many explanations for cause (oh, yeah - arson . . . as if).

    Starfish are going the way of the Dodo - out in the Pacific they're melting and tearing themselves apart, now we have them washing up dead along the east coast.

    There seem to be more young people dropping dead (but it could just be me noticing) and the naked guy running around seems to occur almost daily now. They can't all be on drugs.

    Thanks again for the update.

    1. Thought *I* was going the way of the dodo yesterday! Crazy storm crackling with electricity came though, tornado hit near me, sirens, fled to basement, power loss. A few hours later, another storm, another tornado, sirens, fled to basement, power loss. And the whole time I was thinking, 'My privacy fence better not come down again!' (It didn't, whew.)
