I think this may be the clue that San Francisco being covered in this
methane type of foul smell may be ready for a large earthquake.
Anybody have any comments about this strange stinky smell coming from
East to the West that is covering the entire city now?????

It's got everybody in SF confused and unable to explain this methane
like smell.

Ok but Im thinking that gases are being released from a seismic shift
and are bringing some underground sewage smells along with it

But if methane is odorless why do you presume you are smelling
methane

Commercial natural gas is methane with a special odorant added
specifically so leaks will be smelled and notices. Are you sure
you're not smelling natural gas? Or the refineries up around
Richmond?

I was in error thinking it was methane then. Sorry for the ignorance.
I just reported to the link on this and nothing has occured more with
it so I guess all is well now.
