http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-29209263

Note: Sort of funny that there will be 'an inquiry' when it's obvious that they already know that it's hydrogen sulfide causing problems. Both coastal New York City and coastal London pumped an innocuous heavier-than-air gas into their respective subways last year to see where a heavier-than-air gas - like hydrogen sulfide - would go once in the subway systems. All cities with subways would be wise to do the same. The NYC subway gas test was mentioned in the 2013-04-26 update and the London subway gas test was mentioned in the 2013-06-14 update. A subway explosion hit Moscow (Russia) in July, mentioned in the 2014-07-19 update. Moscow should have run the same tests...

Quote: "Waco Deputy Fire Marshal Riley Kilgo said officials are trying to determine the source of the ignition."

Note: Possibly the Ghostly Match in action here. Anytime you work with anything involving flammable vapors in the air, that's going to be a possibility. I mentioned flooring chemicals specifically...

http://www.westfm.co.uk/news/uk-and-world/20140915-body-found-in-burning-bin-lorry-near-theatre/

Quote: "It is understood he had been sleeping rough and is believed to have been seeking shelter when he was tipped from a bin into the back of the vehicle. It is not yet known what started the fire."

Note: Sort of like a combination of the garbage trucks that have been burning and the self-recyclers, people who've been found dead at trash dumps. Also similar to the man who burst into flame near a dumpster outside of a 7-Eleven in Provo (Utah), mentioned in the 2013-02-11 update. Trash is adsorbing hydrogen sulfide so contact with contaminated trash can knock you dead and you then topple into the trash, and it's also highly flammable so it may ignite, and it can ignite YOU too if you're close enough or your clothes and/or hair have been contaminated by contact with contaminated trash...

2014-09-14 - Massive pallet fire erupts, fire spreads to power lines, in Tibenham (Britain):
http://www.edp24.co.uk/news/power_restored_to_hundreds_of_homes_after_huge_pallet_fire_in_tibenham_spreads_to_overhead_power_lines_1_3769674

Note: A big pile of pallets and compost just went up in flames at a landfill the day prior too, on coastal Nantucket Island (Massachusetts), mentioned in the 2014-09-13 update. Pallets are naturally vulnerable to the ongoing atmospheric extinction event because they have rusty iron/steel right next to adsorbent flammable wood, so they're like self-igniting bonfires if any hydrogen sulfide blows by and generates sparking via reactivity with the rusty iron/steel. Pallets are also often stored outdoors, fully exposed to the atmosphere...

2014-09-11 - Car bursts into flame at 2:30 AM while parked at home in Oswego (New York):
http://patch.com/illinois/oswego/police-investigating-early-morning-car-fire-oswego-0/

Quote: "Oswego police are investigating the blaze as a possible arson, Capt. Jeff Burgner said. According to Burgner, police believe some type [of] accelerant was used to start the fire."

Note: This is the same exact mistake the cops made when three patrol cars went up in flames while parked at a police station in Norwich (Vermont), mentioned in the 2012-11-22 update. Initially they said that was arson too, and that accelerants were involved, then they changed their story and said it was accidental, probably after reviewing surveillance footage which showed the cars simply bursting into flame. They were correct about accelerants being involved though: both methane and hydrogen sulfide are highly flammable, which means they are accelerants. The wee hours are when the atmosphere cools and contracts, which will push any hydrogen sulfide or methane in the air above closer to the ground, making fires, explosions and people and animals sickening and/or dropping dead more common during those hours...

2014-09-11 - Car bursts into flame on Highway 101 in Atascadero (California), separate crash occurs nearby too:
http://www.ksby.com/news/fire-car-crash-along-highway-101-in-atascadero/

Quote: "According to the California Highway Patrol, though the fire and crash were both reported at around 1:15 p.m. on Thursday, the two incidents are unrelated. Dispatchers say the fire is located on the northbound side of the Highway at San Anselmo Road. The crash happened on the southbound side of the highway."

Note: Fire and crash reported at same time in same area. What could the northbound side of the highway have in common with the southbound side? The atmosphere. Hydrogen sulfide is blowing around causing fires and explosions and it's also causing people to lose consciousness, have seizures, go insane, or die while driving, which causes accidents...

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."

2014-09-10 - Home damaged by basement explosion and fire, outdoor power lines ignite too, in Alton (Illinois):
http://fox2now.com/2014/09/10/bizarre-house-fire-causes-outside-power-line-to-burst-into-flames/

Quote: "The woman living here told the fire chief that she smelled something funny Tuesday morning, thinking it was a gas problem and called Ameren Illinois. They came out and told her that it wasn’t a gas situation and she should call the fire department or the land lord. Three hours later neighbors heard an explosion in the woman’s basement from a propane tank. The tank had caught fire from a fire in the homes electrical panel."

Note: So she thought she smelled gas, which means it was a 'rotten egg' odor that she smelled. But nope, not a natural gas problem. That might've been some hydrogen sulfide that got into her home. It's a heavier-than-air gas so it will tend to flow to basements. It's also reactive with copper, especially electrified copper, like that electrical panel, and it will cause the AIR to ignite if there are other volatile vapors in the air too, like from that propane tank. Alton is located on the eastern (downwind) banks of the Mississippi River, not too far from the Edward Jones Dome in St. Louis, which was evacuated in April because of an unknown odor that originated OUTSIDE, mentioned in the 2014-04-11 update...

2014-09-10 - Fire truck bursts into flame while parked inside fire station, fire station mostly destroyed, in Bruceton (Tennessee):
http://www.wbbjtv.com/news/local/Bruceton-Fire-Department-fights-fire-at-own-station-274622271.html

Note: Fire trucks and a fire station were destroyed by fire at 5 AM in Mount Eden (Kentucky), mentioned in the 2014-08-05 update. Five fire trucks and a fire station were destroyed by fire after 11 PM in South Hopkins (Kentucky), mentioned in the 2014-08-06 update. Other fire trucks and fire stations have been destroyed similarly, but those two were the most recent. Since ALL vehicles are now randomly-igniting firebombs that can go off at any time, and since they park vehicles next to other vehicles inside fire stations, this problem will continue until A) there are no more fire trucks or fire stations left; or B) they start facing reality and taking protective measures...

2014-09-10 - Washing State wildfires burn 6 times as much acreage as in a normal year:
http://www.thenewstribune.com/2014/09/10/3372577_washing-state-wildfires-6-times.html

Quote: "This year’s record-setting season of wildfires in Washington has burned six times as many acres as usual, state officials said Wednesday. As of the end of August, wildfires had burned a total of about 363,000 acres throughout the state, state forester Aaron Everett said. In the past five years, the average amount of acres burned per year was only about 61,000, he said."

2014-09-10 - Three school buses destroyed by fire while parked at facility in Elkhart (Indiana):
http://www.elkharttruth.com/news/crime-fire-courts/2014/09/11/No-answers-yet-in-fire-that-destroyed-Elkhart-school-buses.html

Quote: "Officials believe the fire was intentional because the buses had last been driven five or six hours before and the engines had plenty of time to cool off, according to Elkhart chief fire investigator Tony Balzano."

Note: I guess Tony hasn't noticed that parked vehicles have bursting into flame all over the planet. Hydrogen sulfide is reactive with rusty iron/steel and copper, especially electified copper. It doesn't matter how cool the buses are - they still have rusty iron/steel and electrified copper, and either one is all that is needed for a vehicle to spontaneously ignite now. These are the 8th, 9th and 10th school buses to burn in September and the 95th, 96th and 97th school buses to burn since May 1...

http://www.lehighvalleylive.com/breaking-news/index.ssf/2014/09/pennsylvania_man_80_fatally_bu.html

Quote: "Kubricki said it appeared that Strzelecki had been siphoning gasoline from a tractor while working on a riding mower, which he said his cousin was anxious to get running, 'and something apparently ignited.'"

Note: This home is around 400 feet east (downwind) of the Susquehanna River and there's a pond even closer. It sounds like this could have been the work of the Ghostly Match. I mentioned siphoning specifically: "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." The same problem is causing boats to explode when refueling, cars to ignite and sometimes explode at gas stations, tanker trucks to explode when unloading fuel, etc. You won't die that way EVERY time you refuel a vehicle or siphon gas (or we'd pretty much all be dead already), but your odds will be getting steadily worse as time goes on, and you'll never see it coming until it's too late...

http://chicago.everyblock.com/crime-posts/sep09-explosion-near-oakdale-6375550/

Quote: "Did anyone else hear an extremely loud, house-rocking, thud-like explosion at about 3:10 AM this morning (Tuesday, Sept 9)? We are on the 1900 block of Oakdale in Lakeview. We were shaken awake, checked everything out, and have no sign of damage or break-in - just confusion. A moment or two later we heard sirens that sounded like they were a few blocks south (perhaps near Diversey), and then nothing again. This was a seriously powerful noise."

Note: Lakeview is located on the shore of Lake Michigan. By 'Diversey', this person means Diversey Harbor, where a boat burst into flame in July, mentioned in the 2014-07-09 update...

2014-09-07 - Huge explosion creates 39-foot crater at midnight in coastal Managua (Nicaragua):
http://www.foxnews.com/world/2014/09/08/skepticism-over-reported-meteorite-in-nicaragua-so-far-no-accounts-fireball-in/
http://www.theweathernetwork.com/news/articles/meteorite-strike-reported-near-nicaraguan-capital-may-be-linked-to-close-asteroid-flyby/35522/

Quote: "The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration says the lack of any witness accounts of a fireball lighting up the nighttime sky suggests something else was behind the blast around midnight Saturday. Bill Cooke is head of NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office. He estimates the crater shown in photos was likely caused by an explosion roughly the energy equivalent of 1 ton of TNT. Cooke said Monday that any space rock capable of leaving a hole that size 'would have generated a very bright fireball.'"

Note: Nobody saw a fireball, so people aren't accepting that this was caused by a meteorite. It may have been a good-sized cloud of methane and/or hydrogen sulfide blowing in off the ocean right there that found an ignition source and detonated. It could also have been one of those underground methane explosions like those that recently created the big holes in Siberia or the underground explosion that lifted the ground in Florida and then the ground collapsed and formed a crater. Eventually the atmospheric methane and hydrogen sulfide explosions may equal or surpass the destructive power of the explosion that destroyed Hiroshima, though they won't generate any radiation, unless an explosion destroys a nuclear plant, many of which are located on coasts and ALL of which are located near bodies of water - e.g. low-lying areas - for cooling...

http://www.mercurynews.com/bay-area-news/ci_26458178/san-jose-firefighters-knock-down-blaze-sparked-by

Quote: "Firefighters quickly extinguished a gas-fueled blaze this morning at a San Jose law firm after a gas meter sprung a leak and ignited, according to a fire captain."

Note: What ignited the gas? If there's any rusty iron or steel around, or electrified copper, then any hydrogen sulfide blowing in from right off the ocean there can cause sparking and ignition. In other words, in the past a leaky gas meter probably would NOT explode and ignite but nowadays it is more likely that it will, and the odds that such events will result in ignition are steadily rising. The same goes for any source of flammable vapors: gas grills, propane and propane accessories (heh), gasoline fumes during refueling, lacquer, flooring chemicals, sunscreen spray, butane, etc.

http://www.radioiowa.com/2014/09/02/millions-of-bushels-of-grain-involved-in-sioux-center-coop-fire/

Quote: "The building is larger than the size of a football field and was loaded with 2.7 million bushels of corn. Sioux Center Fire Chief Dave Van Holland says it could take five days to haul all of the grain out of the facility. 'We’ve got an extreme amount of heat in the center of the building, but we’re able work in the building with payloaders and keep moving the grain at a rapid speed out of the building,' Van Holland said. It’s unclear how much of the corn will be salvageable."

Note: That's a lot of food there...

http://www.winknews.com/Local-Florida/2014-09-01/Car-fire-outside-home-leads-police-to-discover-grow-house

Note: The SUV ignited so they did a 'safety sweep'. When nobody answered a door they just went inside on their own, saw some pot growing equipment and called the cops, who got a search warrant, and two people are busted. Seems vaguely unconstitutional, a way for cops to look around inside your home without a warrant or probable cause or anything, by using 'safety sweeps' and firefighters as a sort of access tool to bypass constitutional protections...
