Get the popcorn... this should be a riot...
So -- the smart thing to do is obviously to panic, and cripple our entire industrialized society.

25 times more powerful in what regard? Calories of energy? Electrical charge? What a ridiculous statement.
Another Chicken Little alarmist. Any uneducated pontifications on climate should be ignored instead of refuted. There is no end to them.

La Brea Tar Pits
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The La Brea Tar Pits (or Rancho La Brea Tar Pits) are a famous cluster of tar pits located in Hancock Park in the urban heart of Los Angeles, California, United States.

Source of methane discovered
Methane gas also seeps up, causing bubbles that make the asphalt appear to boil. Asphalt and methane also appear under surrounding buildings, requiring special operations to remove, lest it weaken the buildings’ foundations. In 2007, researchers from UC Riverside discovered that the bubbles are caused by hardy forms of bacteria embedded in the natural asphalt. The bacteria are eating away at the petroleum and releasing methane. Of the bacteria sampled so far, about 200 to 300 are previously unknown species.[2]
In a city which hosts the La Brea Tar Pits they can’t figure out where methane is coming from? Look down, boys and girls. It’s coming from beneath your feet.

Methane comes from s**t. LA is a s**t hole. Go figure.
Frijoles?
These global warmists could not find their fannys with both hands. That is why they can’t measure methane correctly.
Anyone who believes that this is the only place where guesswork substitutes for valid science raise your rectum and release!
Duh.
The LA basin is a huge oil and gas field, and methane gas seepage has been a known problem for many decades. J Paul Getty had many oil wells there, and made millions from them.

The Methane Down Below
By EDWARD J. BOYER, TIMES STAFF WRITERS and JANET WILSON, TIMES STAFF WRITERS
July 30, 1999
One witness thought it was “raining fire.” The earth was belching flames through cracks in the pavement, tongues of fire marching in a steady progression across a shopping center parking lot on 3rd Street near Fairfax Avenue in West Los Angeles.
The methane gas explosion that ripped through a Ross Dress for Less store in March 1985 left 24 people injured and forced the closure of stores in the center for several days.

The region is dotted with working and abandoned oil wells from Santa Clarita in the north to Newport Beach in the south. And where there are oil wells, there is methane.
Does that mean neighborhoods and commercial developments built on old oil fields face the same risks that have caused so much concern at Belmont?
There is certainly risk whenever explosive gases are present, experts say, but building codes and state agencies have been able to keep that risk at manageable levels for the most part.
When builders follow proper procedures to vent methane, the risk of accidental explosions is virtually eliminated, experts say.
Having pumping oil wells on a site is better than having improperly abandoned wells because working wells vent methane harmlessly into the air, said Richard Baker, district deputy of the state Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources.
