We'll be seeing an uptick in unusual home and business gas explosions and I'm trying to locate specific ZT on the matter.  Below is a refresher for the many gas related news articles.

Fault lines, when adjusting, do not just rip apart one day during a dramatic earthquake. They most often creep. Laying gas lines along or across a fault line is asking for an accident of this sort. Fault lines are also seldom so clearly delineated that one can go a mile in this or that direction and avoid their action. Where a slip-slide fault such as the San Andreas will often leave a clear line on the surface, this is only the surface action, not what occurs in the rock layers on either side which can fracture for a long way to either side during any movement. The gas company, or the age of the pipes, will be faulted but in truth the finger should be pointed in many directions. The public, who insist on living at such a scenic spot, is to blame. Officials, who zoned for housing are to blame. The public utility company, for allowing gas lines in the area, is to blame. But this will change nothing, while man continues to live on the San Andreas, even as it awakens. EOZT

SOZT

The danger from radon gas will not be increased as a result of the pole shift. Radon gas is emitted by rock containing uranium, which is degrading. In normal circumstances, where air can circulate, it is disbursed rapidly as is any methane created by decay of organic material. The danger from these gasses comes from confinement - being trapped in a mine, a basement, or beneath the permafrost. The dangers are well known. For methane, it is explosions. An accumulation of methane gas can be identified by the smell of rotten eggs, or as some have described it, dirty socks or cabbage soup. For radon gas the danger is lung cancer, from the continual exposure to the radioactive air. Radon gas is odorless, and cannot be detected except by specialized equipment not in the hands of the average person.

In that the pole shift, or the Earth changes preceding the pole shift, can fracture rock and release pockets of either gas, survivors should be cautious about huddling in bunkers. You are safer out in the open air, or in a trench you have dug that will allow the pole shift winds to pass over you, but nothing to fall on and crush you. The fact that both methane gas and radon gas can accumulate in the bunkers of the elite is one of the reasons we have stated that they have dug their own graves. EOZT

Anyone watching the news, for instance the news on the San Bruno explosion in a distribution line close to the San Andreas Fault line, knows that gas in any form is a danger. Oil and gas refineries explode when rigid piping cracks. Oil or gas wells explode when the ground around them moves. And the gas distribution lines running under cities are no exception. They likewise will explode. Gas lines, whether along the street or within a home, are rigid. In some cases automatic shutoff valves can limit the amount of gas available for an explosion by sensing a drop in pressure, but this is always after the fact. The explosion has already occurred. Utilizing gas on a planet prone to earthquakes was a mistake to begin with, but man never thinks of the consequences when striving for modern conveniences. We have advised turning off the gas at the street, though when the street explodes and your neighbor's homes are on fire you are not likely to escape the holocaust. A better alternative is to live in an area where gas is not available, as in your rural safe location where you will be doing a form of camping while gardening. A campfire at night, for cooking and washing and a bit of friendly light before bed. Nothing explosive. EOZT

SOZT Answer: It is no accident that the New Madrid fault lies under the Mississippi River near Memphis, as rivers form in lowlands created when land pulls apart, separating the rock fingers and weakening support for the land. Thus, the Ohio River bed also is an indication of where rock fingers will pull apart. Two adjustments in Kentucky, a day apart, are not an accident, but an indication of the speed at which the stretch zone is starting to adjust. Rail lines are frequently an early harbinger of such adjustments, as they run long distances, whereas structures within cities, such as tall buildings, take up relatively little space and have a small footprint. Our warning that imploding cities will be experienced, before the hour of the shift, are in this regard. Be warmed, it will not just be your rail lines and gas and water mains that will shatter and be pulled apart during the stretch. The foundations of your tall buildings will likewise be vulnerable.EOZT

WEST BERLIN TOWNSHIP, New Jersey — A fire and several small explosions have been reported at a chemical manufacturing company in Southern New Jersey.

Fire crews are battling a blaze that started around 2 p.m. Thursday at ResinTech, a plant in West Berlin that makes resin. No injuries have been reported.

Berlin Township Police Chief Leonard Check tells Philadelphia television station NBC10 that investigators believe the explosions were likely the result of the ignition of chemicals stored inside the building.

Fire officials say workers at the site were all safely evacuated.

The company's website says it manufactures ion exchange resins which are used in water softening and water treatment.

Immense Explosion in Iran May Have Nuclear Origins Huge blast in Qazvin, rumored site of nuclear center; 'many casualties' expected.

 5/6/2014, 9:15 PM / Last Update: 5/6/2014, 10:57 PM

 An immense explosion has been heard throughout the northern Iranian city of Qazvin, semi-official Fars news agency reported, and many casualties are expected from the blast. Around 1.1 million people live in the city, which is located about 100 miles north of Tehran. The blast may be related to nuclear development in Iran, according to the Los Angeles Times. Iranian officials in the past have strongly denied claims by Mujahedin Khalq Organization, or MKO, a cult-like Iranian exile group, that it has a secret nuclear enrichment facility in Abyek, near the major city, according to the daily. The source of the blast remains undetermined. Several mystery explosions have been reported in the past several years in the region, none of which were ever verified. A fire has now broken out in the city, local reports say, and as many as 50 people are injured. State media blames an oil depot for the blast. State news agency IRNA reports that firefighters are on the scene. "Firefighters are trying to prevent the spread of the fire at a car oil storage facility," Ali Mohammad Ahani, the director general of Qazvin governor's disaster management authority, stated. Ahani added that no reports of casualties have been recorded.

Escambia County Jail in Pensacola, Florida, Hit by Deadly Blast

At least two inmates died and more than 150 other people were injured when an apparent gas explosion collapsed part of a county jail in the Florida panhandle late Wednesday, officials said.

The blast occurred at the Escambia County Jail's Central Booking Facility in Pensacola at around 11 p.m. local time (midnight Thursday ET), officials said.

Kathleen Castro, the county’s public information officer, confirmed the deaths to NBC News and said that both prisoners and corrections officials were among the wounded.

A victim of an apparent explosion at the Escambia County Jail is loaded into an ambulance early Thursday.

About 600 prisoners were in the building at the time. Uninjured inmates were being moved to other detention facilities, authorities added.

James McLean, who works at the Circle K gas station just a few hundred feet away, said the blast felt like an earthquake.

“There was a big flash that lit up the whole sky and the whole area shook for what felt like a good five seconds,” he told NBC News.

The injured were transported to five local hospitals for treatment.

West Florida Hospital took in 37 patients with "very minor, non-life-threatening" injuries, according to a spokesman.

"All of them have been seen in our ER, treated, and released back into custody,” Kendrick Doidge told NBC News.

Sacred Heart Hospital said it treated 31 patients with minor injuries such as abrasions and neck pain.

Baptist Hospital and Gulf Breeze Hospital saw a combined 81 patients, according to Liz Branch, spokeswoman for Baptist Health Care, while Naval Hospital Pensacola confirmed it saw six patients with minor injuries.

Primary and secondary sweeps of the facility were completed by 1:15 a.m. local time (2:15 a.m. ET) but search and rescue crews were continuing to work in the building, according to officials.

Pensacola had been hit by severe floods earlier in the day.

A memo e-mailed to the Pensacola City Council said that "preliminary investigations indicate that the laundry room flooded and may have been leaking gas which [was] not reported yesterday."

Gabe Gutierrez of NBC News contributed to this report.

April 30, 20145:24 p.m.

Two oil well workers died and nine suffered minor cuts and bruises Wednesday after a high-pressure explosion in a West Texas county that is lightly populated but richly saturated with oil.

The two bodies were found about 20 feet from a wellhead that was being replaced, Loving County Sheriff Billy Hopper told The Times. The blast did not trigger a fire.

The sheriff identified the dead as Amos B. Ortega, 46, of Artesia, N.M., and Roberto Andrade Magdaleno, 41, of El Paso. Their deaths bring the number of workers killed in Loving County's oilfields to seven since 2006, he said.

Ortega and Magdalena were among about a dozen workers at the site as independent contractors for RKI Exploration & Production, which owns the well where the blast occurred Wednesday morning.

Jeremy Fitzpatrick, a spokesman for RKI, told The Times that the Railroad Commission of Texas and the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration were investigating the incident.

"It’s extremely unfortunate," Fitzpatrick said. "Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the killed and injured."

He said the workers on site were employed by Crescent Services through its subsidiary Ameriflow Energy Services. Officials at both firms did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Hopper, the sheriff, said his best guess was that a valve wasn't closed, allowing natural gas or other high-pressure fumes from underground to build up and blow out one of two nearby wellheads. Shrapnel nicked several workers and spewed debris. The apparent force of the explosion -- with vibrations felt miles away -- led to the two deaths, Hopper said.

"I’m kind of dumbfounded myself," he said. "There was no active drilling on location. Just a truck and one of these equipment things to take off the control head."

According to the initial 911 caller, he said, a separator that divides oil from gas had blown up. But authorities didn't find a separator in operation at the scene, Hopper said.

The county has about 80 residents in its 675 square miles, making it one of the most sparsely populated regions of the country.

But more than 1,000 trucks pass through the county each week, heading to and from its more than 3,500 oil and natural gas wells.

The explosion site is about 12 miles from Orla, Texas, and six miles south of the New Mexico border.

Juwana Kinniburgh told the Carlsbad Current-Argus that her boyfriend, who was at the well, had to drive six miles to get a cell signal to call 911.

TOR Suffers Two Explosions

Tema Oil Refinery has suffered two explosions within the spate of few hours, Tuesday, with one person reported dead.

 Speaking to Gold news, an eye witness, Mike Dokosi said the first pipeline was reported to have exploded around 3:00 pm which led to an inferno that ravaged some buildings around the area.

He added that the Cocoa Processing Company which is adjacent to TOR has also been affected.

According to Mr. Dokosi, Just when fire and police personnel arrived to keep the explosion under control, another pipeline exploded around 4:00.

Mr. Dokosi said the cause of the explosions has been linked to some leakages on the pipeline. Officials of TOR were on their way to check the leakages when the explosion occurred.

Speaking to Gold News, a fire officer at the scene, Godwin Damani said the Fire Service is working assiduously to bring the situation under control.
