Florida Could be in Serious Danger of Methane Gas Explosion

Expert says this could be the beginning of a catastrophe; information people should know.

(SALEM, OR) – Tim King in Salem-News  reported that a celebrity of the science world; author and radio host Richard C Hoagland, offered a very stark review of the current situation in the Gulf stemming from BP’s Deepwater Horizon incident. We are not publishing his views for the sake of being alarming. It appears to be strong information that people, particularly those in the affected areas, should pay attention to. 

Draw your own conclusions. Spend time researching the developing information that is very much in the mainstream of current news. 

Hoagland was interviewed on Coast to Coast this week; the YouTube clips are available below in two parts.  

The pressure at the depth of the gulf well is 100,000 pounds per square inch. This is an almost too intense of a figure to comprehend. It was simply too much in the first place, and that is why the terrible accident happened. That, Hoagland says, along with some of the worst planning imaginable. 

If you believe the experts, there are few answers but there are ideas that might be able to arrest the situation. 

Richard is warning of a gas explosion that may occur in weeks or months resulting in a massive tsunami, which he says would travel at 400-600 MPH toward the most vulnerable coastline in America. 

This he says, would sink all vessels for miles and drive the oil, toxic dispersants and gases inland within minutes. 

Hoagland said, “Think Mount St. Helens — underwater. Depth recorders have detected a gas bubble growing under the ocean floor, around the well head. If this potential bubble does not get controlled ASAP before it explodes, impending disaster could be awaiting millions of residents in the gulf states.” 

From the article, “Richard C Hoagland Interview – Warns of Massive Tsunami & an Armageddon Scenario”: 

Richard has discussed a possible Gulf “armageddon scenario” — if the cap rock below the Deepwater Horizon’s BOP finally bursts, releasing an unstoppable tsunami which could kill hundreds of thousands. To prevent this, the BP “mud logs” for the Gulf must be made publicly available. And, a Gulf network of bu…oys must monitor the situation. E-mail the White House and demand that the President make it so!
