Hello everyone-

I don't have a lot of info on this, but I've found a completely different 
theory as well. I'm trying to research it now.

The earths core is warming, and that is what is warming the oceans. The 
plates are shifting which is revealing decomposing material & releasing 
gasses (many reports in the news about gas alarms being set off on ships and 
there being no gas leak, birds suddenly dying en masse). The warmed oceans 
affect the weather...

Any one else stumbled across this theory?

Sorry if this ones been around the block already. I hadn't read anything in 
this list about it so far.
