Event Update For 2014-12-31





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.

Quote: "The man who officers say caused the accidents kept going. 'He drove the vehicle probably half a mile before coming to rest and taking off his clothes,' said Pearlstein. With his truck parked in the middle of the highway, the man – now minus his clothes – walked into and out of traffic."

Quote: "People have reported dead animals including an alligator and some raccoons and turtles. They've taken pictures of a film on the water. 'I've never seen catfish or any fish die off to this extent,' said Jones. 'It's quite upsetting because I've been here since '73, and the waters were much better,' said John Mongioi. Palm Bay Public Works employees checked the water for dissolved oxygen but said so far levels look normal."

http://www.sott.net/article/290745-Another-completely-lost-avian-species-Couchs-Kingbird-flies-from-southern-Texas-to-New-York

Note: I saw one of these in my backyard about a month ago, and I was just amazed to see such a brilliantly yellow bird in St. Louis. At the time I had no idea what it was but I thought it looked sort of tropical and totally out of place. Now I see I wasn't too far off - not quite tropical, but they live in southern Texas and Louisiana. To get to New York, they might have flown through Missouri, so I may have seen one of the ones making that journey to New York...
