Event Update For 2016-01-23

http://jumpingjackflashhypothesis.blogspot.com/2012/02/jumping-jack-flash-hypothesis-its-gas.html

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.

2016-01-23 - Five women go to wash clothes, all of them found dead in dam reservoir in Maharashtra (India):
http://www.business-standard.com/article/pti-stories/bodies-of-5-women-found-in-north-maharashtra-dam-116012300681_1.html

Quote: "Preliminary information suggests the women may have gone there to wash clothes, slipped in the water and drowned, he said."

Note: Doesn't sound too likely! What, they all slipped at the same time? Or did they slip and die one-by-one while the others stood around to take their turn slipping and dying? Or maybe that water's contaminated, and they all touched it, and so they all died, just like the ten people who died after contact with water (and eight more lost consciousness), in Dera Ismail Khan (Pakistan), mentioned in the 2014-05-02 update. The largest number of people to be sickened after contact with water so far was over 200, who sickened after swimming at Horseshoe Lake near Mount Saint Helens (Washington), mentioned in the 2014-07-16 update. 41 children and some animals were recently killed after rainfall too, in Papua (Indonesia), mentioned in the 2015-11-24 update. The easiest way to tell if water is safe nowadays is to get some on you. If you don't die then hey, it was safe!

Note: Toxic blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) isn't just found in Britain, but everywhere, and incidents involving cyanobacteria outbreaks have been on the rise for years all around the world...
