AC User ID: 26669 United States 09/30/2005 03:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Lake Erie does have a history of some tectonic activity ... with small EQ´s occuring on a regular basis SW of this location by about 50 miles (off Ashtabula). There has been no recent (last many 10´s of thousands of years) volcanic activity in that part of the country ... but "smells" that suddenly appear from nowhere do tend to give you "pause". AC |

"Natural gas," used by many North Americans for heating and cooking, is primarily methane (>90%). The 'gas odor' is from an added substance so that gas leaks can be detected.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 907170The water levels in the great lakes are also on a cycle. No kidding. I posted it here years ago - God knows where it is in the archives. Thinking it was a 27 year cycle, but that would be more accurately like that 30 year warming/30 year cooling cycle off the pacific as the impetus. 30 years of more moisture would rise the levels, and the opposite true as well. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 676Lake Erie burps and nearby residents smell it [link to www.post-gazette.com] "Friday, September 30, 2005 AP ERIE, Pa. -- State and federal environmental officials are trying to determine the cause of a big stink reported along Lake Erie. Hundreds of residents called authorities or the National Weather Service yesterday to report the smell, which has been variously described as like gasoline, natural gas or even decaying garbage and rotten eggs. The smell was strongest yesterday morning when a cold front swept through the area, churning up larger than normal waves from Erie to Dunkirk, N.Y., officials said. Scientists said tests run so far aren´t conclusive, but they believe the churning waters may have released some naturally occurring gases that are normally trapped beneath the lake´s deeper waters. Decaying plants and fish washed ashore by the waves could also be contributing to the stench. Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection biologist Jim Grazio said the wave-churning theory makes sense because the smell lessened when the waves diminished. "It´s like the lake burped, and then the burp passed by us," Grazio said." Hello, Showing on the bird-kill map,therewas also a bird-kill at the West/South (left end on map) end of the lake; and itis well known by the locals, that never swim in the lake, that itis used for a cess pool . . . and itis rumored that Rothschild hasbeen dumping Mercury in the GreatLakes . . . CorporateSociety has to get rid of their waste somehow. Where would you suggest all this waste be dumped? I think it should be dumped down volcanoes. Truth will set you free John 8:32 |
