[quote:Anonymous Coward 7767898:MV8xNzI3OTc0XzI4ODg3NTU3XzdCQjNGNDg4] "Saner than just pretending people AREN'T being found mysteriously dead." People have never been mysteriously found dead before your hypothesis. "Did you even read the links I posted, all those stories?" I've read some links, but not bothered with most of them. "Almost all of them near water, or in a basement, etc - heavier-than-air gas that acts super-fast and is lethal." Yeah hardly any gases like that (can you sense the sarcasm?). Additionally, even if someone did die of methane poisoning there are far more likely ways for them to get exposed to it - burst pipelines, sewer backup, etc. "So, let's see what develops. Don't be so impatient. I mean, I didn't predict entire cities burning or dropping dead." Weren't you the one saying we'd all be dead in under 6 months? Or is your future "proof" going to be more isolated BS incidents? [/quote]
Original Message
"The scale and volume of the methane release has astonished the head of the Russian research team who has been surveying the seabed of the East Siberian Arctic Shelf off northern Russia for nearly 20 years."
"This is the first time that we've found continuous, powerful and impressive seeping structures, more than 1,000 metres in diameter. It's amazing," Dr Semiletov said.
"Some plumes were a kilometre or more wide and the emissions went directly into the atmosphere – the concentration was a hundred times higher than normal."
