Strange Bubbles in the Bayou??? Houses moving | |
gabelmom (OP) User ID: 5746351 United States 06/30/2012 02:51 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'd say it's pretty much impossible to be a gas pipeline... You just don't run those things along rivers like that, esp not in the middle... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 10036888 Also, at the rate that the gas is bubbling out the gas company would be all over that as it'd be a big loss of profit as well as a HUGE liability risk (if there was an explosion as someone was passing over it in a boat.) The houses shifting bit makes me wonder if there was not some sort of earthquake in the area that opened up a rift in weak areas (the river being the only one noticeable because it will actually bubble.) There are a few different possibilities here. It could be flammable natural gas (the kind they process into fuel) or it could just be CO2 pockets or any number of possible natural gas sources. Natural gas, of any type, coming up out of the ground almost never has a smell. Non-flammable (which since they haven't cordoned off this section of river I'm thinking its probably CO2) gas is actually more interesting as usually it's associated with volcanic activity. There is actually an extinct volcano beneath the city of Jackson, MS. It's the only state capital built on top of an actual volcano. Further, degassing like we're seeing in the video is very likely to be happening in areas not just covered by water, so watch for mysterious deaths of all types in this area over the next few days and weeks.. This is definitely something to keep an eye on. Maybe even two eyes. You make a good point, I wonder if there are any dead fish or waterlife around? If it's something toxic, I would imagine there would be. |

Quoting: gabelmom just a theory--but I think they know exactly what it is, and I also think that there's nothing they can do about it. so they're preparing for whatever is coming. I do think it's methane, and I also think that it has something to do with an earthquake. These are the clusters you see before the 'big one' All these tectonic plates moving in various directions, putting strain on underground pipes (water, gas, electric) and they're snapping. What you're seeing with the bubbles are fissures opening up releasing the gases. It would also happen with the sink holes, but of course, you don't have the water so you don't realize the gas is escaping. and since most of louisiana is built on rock/pebble type sediment, when the ground moves, the houses are moving too.

I read in one story that a family actually moved because they were afraid... that tells me something else is happening. People do not just up and move because of a gas leak... well I guess I would to if it was left to bubble like that.. |

Massive gas bubble underground could explode causing a tsnuami Quoting: gabelmom [link to www.politicsdaily.com] note the speed of the tsunami wave they estimate if this burst---hundreds---plural <snip from OP link> The frightening "low-probability" scenario described today by entrepreneur and philanthropist DK Matai at The Huffington Post includes the possibility of a "massive bubble trapped for thousands of years under the Gulf of Mexico sea floor" exploding and setting off a "tsunami [traveling] at a high speed of hundreds of miles per hour." Florida might be most exposed to the fury of a tsunami wave. The entire Gulf coastline would be vulnerable, if the tsunami is manifest. Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and southern region of Georgia might experience the effects of the tsunami according to some sources. He also warns of a "second tsunami via vaporization." This could result after the initial explosion displaced all the oil, gas and water around it, producing a gigantic, extremely hot (300-degree Fahrenheit) cavity, which would vaporize all the incoming water, turning it into steam and causing another rupture in the gulf floor. He notes that as time goes on and the gulf well remains unplugged, the "risk increases."

After staying up all night June 2011 watching the extinct Nabro volcano erupting in Africa, well, makes you wonder. [link to www.newsouthernview.com] “And even though it’s buried about half a mile deep below Jackson, we feel the affects of it today: hot water in excess of 100°F, carbon-dioxide gas, hydrogen sulfide gas from an 18,000 foot deep well near Piney Woods measuring 320°F [at the bottom of the well], and the natural gas in the gas rock. But also, apparently—the volcano is still pushing up a little bit.” And "The Jackson Volcano is on the east side of this syncline and the Monroe Uplift, another Cretaceous volcano, is on the west side. They’re kind of symmetrical. Further north is the Murfreesboro, Arkansas Volcano. And then, there’s a buried volcano at the mouth of the Mississippi River called the Door Point Volcano."
