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.

SOZT

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

A woman was rushed to hospital today after an explosion caused by a suspected gas leak tore through her home.

She was taken to the burns unit after flames ripped through the building shortly before 9.30am.

Residents were evacuated from neighbouring homes in Basingstoke, Hampshire, amid fears of further destruction as utility experts tried to locate the source of the leak.

A spokesman for Hampshire Police said: 'Officers are currently assisting with the evacuation of 20 homes in Basingstoke following an explosion in a home.

'Officers were called at about 9.30am by the ambulance crew attending the scene.

'One woman was injured and has been transferred to the burns unit at Salisbury District Hospital as a precautionary measure. The injuries are not life-threatening.'

Utility company workers were examining the property to determine what caused the blast.

A police spokesman said: 'It is thought to have been caused by a gas leak in the drainage system, leading to gas being contained in the walls of the house.

'Although the explosion and resulting flash fire was contained to one house, surrounding homes were evacuated as a precautionary measure until utility companies have been able to locate the leak and bring it under control.'

Those evacuees who did not have relatives or friends to seek shelter with were taken to the Poppyfield Centre, Basingstoke, to wait for the all clear.

Gas pipeline explodes in Egypt's northern Sinai

From Mohamed Fadel Fahmy, For CNN
February 5, 2012 -- Updated 0011 GMT (0811 HKT)

Cairo (CNN) -- Massive flames shot into the sky over northern Sinai on Saturday after a section of a pipeline that carries gas from Egypt to Israel and Jordan exploded, according to a security official in the region.

The explosion occurred near the northern Sinai city of Arish, said General Saleh Elmasry, head of North Sinai Security. Egypt's state-run Middle East News Agency attributed the cause of the blast to unknown militants.

Emergency crews were heading to the scene of the explosion, Elmasry said. There were no immediate reports of injuries.

The blast is the latest in a series of attacks on the pipeline in recent months.

The Egyptian army and police announced in August that they were cracking down on terror groups in the area believed to be carrying out the attacks.

Israel receives about 40% of its natural gas from Egypt.

The pipeline between Egypt and Israel became operational in 2008 and the arrangement represents one of the major economic agreements between the two countries.

The issue of gas sales to Israel has become highly controversial in Egypt with various allegations circulating that Israel received below market prices for the gas and that Egyptian government officials enriched themselves on the deal.

The Israeli government and Israeli investors in the pipeline have categorically denied receiving below market pricing for the gas.

Man lucky to be alive after gas explosion in North Wales

Feb. 3, 2012

A MAN cheated death when a gas bottle exploded and demolished part of his bungalow.

The middle aged man suffered burns to his hands in the blast on the Y Fridd estate in Morfa Bychan, near Porthmadog, last night.

Fire crews from Porthmadog and Blaenau Ffestiniog were called at 5.19pm, along with a technical unit from Caernarfon. Police and paramedics were also quickly on the scene.

The man was taken to Ysbyty Gwynedd for treatment.

One nearby householder, who did not wish to be named, said: “It happened about 50 yards away from our house. I heard it. I felt this great thump.

“I thought somebody had dropped something outside, or maybe my husband had fallen upstairs.

“I didn’t realise what had happened until someone rang me from Blaenau Ffestiniog saying it had just been on the news.

“I saw blue flashing lights from police cars and at least one fire engine.

“All I could see was the kitchen window had blown out.”

Fire service experts are now investigating the cause of the explosion.

A North Wales Police spokesman said last night: “A man has been taken to hospital with superficial burns to his hands following an explosion at a bungalow in Morfa Bychan, near Porthmadog at around 5.20pm today.

“North Wales Fire and Rescue Service were called to the incident in Y Ffridd following a suspected bottled gas explosion which partially demolished the single storey building.

“The middle aged man was taken to Ysbyty Gwynedd in Bangor for treatment.

“Two pumps from Porthmadog and Blaenau Ffestiniog and a tender from Caernarfon attended the scene.”

SEQUIM, Washington —

A violent explosion on a 40-foot boat sent debris flying, left a man with burns and broken bones and damaged other vessels.

 

The cause of the blast, which happened at about 6 p.m. on Tuesday at Sequim’s John Wayne Marina, is not yet known.  It destroyed the boat and had enough force to damage other vessels within 75 yards.

 

A boat in the slip next to the vessel that exploded had a blown-out window and hull damage, and the force of the blast knocked a man and a woman to the deck two slips down, breaking out a number of their boat’s windows.

 

Clallam County firefighters said that couple,  Clifford and Julie Houser, got up and ran to the wreckage, where the victim, a 78-year-old man, was trapped in the water, covered in debris.  They were able to rescue the man as paramedics arrived. 

 

 

The man was identified to the Peninsula Daily News as Keith Bryant. 

 

Pictures taken by Clallam County Fire District 3 showed the wreckage in the slip with shards of hull, rope, and other floating and half-sunken items.

 

 

The victim was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center with serious injuries.

CES firefighters keep a still-burning gas line next to the house cool until until crews from Enstar Natural Gas Co. could use an excavator to get to the main line needed to stop the flow.

An explosion inside a Soldotna home Thursday afternoon at 336 West Riverview Ave. sent two residents to Central Peninsula Hospital for injuries.

It is uncertain what caused the explosion.

The small single-story home sat slumped, windows shattered in the total loss incident. A black SUV sat close to house badly damaged as well.

Neighbors who heard the explosion ran outside to witness two individuals exit the house within 30 seconds of each other. The first occupant entered a vehicle in the street and was taken to CPH, and a neighbor’s friend transported the second male to CPH.

One of the occupants suffered “severe burns” and “didn’t have any hair,” according to witnesses.

Central Emergency Services responders continued to monitor an exposed gas line near the damaged home as of 3 p.m. 

CES plans to extinguish the gas line once its supply is shut off.

ENSTAR Natural Gas Company workers were digging in the area across from the house to locate the gas line’s source.

Gas-line break in NY town 10 days after explosion

WEST HAVERSTRAW, N.Y. — There's been another gas-line rupture in the suburban New York town where a house was leveled in a gas explosion last week.

A spokesman for Orange and Rockland Utilities says that for the second time in 10 days, a contractor punctured a gas main in West Haverstraw (HAV'-ur-straw).

The spokesman says, however, that in Thursday's case, the main was already exposed rather than underground. Therefore, gas from the leak was venting into the air rather than building up underground.

He says repairs are under way and there have been no evacuations.

On Jan. 16, a different contractor punctured a gas line. It led to an explosion that injured two firefighters as they were going door-to-door to evacuate residents.

West Haverstraw is about 30 miles north of New York City.
