Destruction everywhere. Planes are landing on their tails and their noses, we are told, and as today's incident in Galicia, Spain brings reason to note, trains are crashing across the globe at a seemingly incredibly unusual rate lately. Counting from the well publicized train crash July 6th in Canada (7-6-13; numerology? - link), the train wreck in Spain today July 24 (7-[2+4=6]-13) brings the total to at the very least, if we've not missed any, 18 in just the last 18 days:
***
1. Death toll rises in Quebec "Lac Megantic" train derailment explosion [Canada] July 6 "Five people confirmed dead, 40 missing.

How can it be? Spain, Canada, Russia, France, England, India, China, all over the U.S. - almost seems like what an as-above-so-below ritual intended to symbolize the 'train wreck' of the 'old order' would possibly look like? Just noting it.
