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."

Officials of the province and the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) urged the Philippine Air Force Friday to immediately monitor and help put out the fires. ARMM Vice Governor Haroun Al-Rashid Lucman, who hails from Lanao del Sur, said the fire in the densely forested mountains of Butig town was first spotted from villages along Lake Lanao."

Note: Similar to the coastal fires that recently wiped out some towns in Australia. A few more months and the US West Coast will be going up in flames again too, and very probably worse than last year, which was already the worst wildfire season in US history...

Since they're not even checking for methane or hydrogen sulfide at the site of explosions, here or anywhere else, we'll never know...

2016-01-26 - Mysterious explosion shakes homes on the coast in Charleston (South Carolina):
http://wncn.com/2016/01/26/loud-booms-heard-and-shaking-felt-near-charleston-sc/
http://www.live5news.com/story/31060490/authorities-investigating-widespread-reports-of-loud-boom-shaking

Note: Pic in the story has what looks like a large gas plume showing up on radar. They've circled it and put the word 'Chaff??????' there. Look at the size of that thing, that's way too much surface area to be chaff - about as big as Charleston itself. Maybe a whole fleet of chemical tanker planes could spew out a cloud that large, given time and light winds, but even that seems iffy.

Last year, farther up the coast, on the Outer Banks in North Carolina, there was one of these city-shaking mysterious explosions and shortly afterwards a huge number of dead fish washed ashore, mentioned in the 2015-03-18 update. That was probably a bubble of gas breaching the surface of the ocean and exploding, and either the explosion killed the fish (like dynamite-fishing on a grand scale) or the gas(es) suffocated and/or poisoned the fish on the way to the surface, or some of both. There are 5 trillion pounds of explosively flammable methane dissociating off the East Coast, which is enough methane to cause a quarter of a million 10-kiloton explosions. (And that's just ONE deposit - many are dissociating now, all around the planet.) And if that cloud had blown westward, onto Charleston instead of out to sea, then Charleston might very well be gone now, destroyed by fires and explosions...
