Cool thread Rez, interesting subject and some nice theories thrown up. The proliferation of cameras and the instant sharing capabilities of the internet I believe has made this a phenomena that many people can now share in.
There was a large fireball last year over my area and over the North of England. it was all over the social media and even though I didn't see it personally I felt that I had somehow participated in the occurrence, so with today's instant reporting and discussion of any odd event people are aware of it when it happens whereas previously it would have been just a local talking point and reports were often taken with a pinch of salt along the lines of 'pics or it didn't happen.' Now there are lots of pics and videos because most people carry recording devices around in their pockets.
Whether there are increasing numbers of fireballs or just more awareness it is still a fascinating topic and one that throws up more questions than answers. S&F for a good OP

More fireballs? Methane. More sick people? Methane. Better employment scene? Methane.
Somebody dies? Methane. Either that or ebola, which must be because of Methane. Someone falls in to a ditch when they die? Methane. A plane falls out of the sky. Methane. Any and all die offs? Methane. Why the extended stock market rally? Methane. Christ, you have it all figured out. Get some help. Or else, all the chapters are going to sound the same.
All I wanted to know is can you smell the presence of a JJFSH sick person(s) and what do they smell like?
Please don't tell me that Methane is odorless again. You don't have to convince me. That's why this is all going on, and undetected!
I may be powerless against Methane but I want to be able to recognize the Victims, since there's no test for this disease yet, when they're at my DOOR! Only then can we help them, with the real truth.
So what do the sick persons who are sick because of Methane smell like!!! Any hall mark features of the syndrome the JJFSH could steer us too?
Thank you

There are comet debris trails all around us, but we only visit the ones that intersect our orbit around the Sun. The combined pull of all of the planets wobble the Sun in very predictable ways and this in turn effects the planets as well, by very small amounts. It is possible that in certain circumstances, and the degree amount that the Sun was pulled from its average central position, that the Earth could occasionally visit the fringes of a comet debris tail that is very close to it, but rarely, if ever, intersected. To me, this would be a reasonable mechanism that could cause periods of many bolides being seen. The caveat to that possibility is our increased technology and communications, which follows a curve as well.
I just don't believe there were exploding fireballs happening every week around the planet, sometimes even multiple explosions in a single night. I'm just not buying it, but hey, that's my opinion.

You need to read Charles Fort's New Lands. There's plenty of accounts in there of loud sky booms through the ages.
