On Feb. 25, 1942, a large, dark object over the Los Angeles coastline was mistaken for a Japanese attack and drew a barrage of anti-aircraft fire. Memos to President Roosevelt confirmed the existence of unidentified aerial objects.

(I have no idea if this is actually true.)

The London Beer Flood occurred on 17 October 1814 in London, England. A huge vat containing over 135,000 gallons of beer ruptured, causing other vats in the same building to succumb in a domino effect. As a result more than 323,000 gallons of beer burst out and gushed into the streets. Eight people drowned.

Water that has previously been boiled and cooled boils faster than water of the same temperature that's never been boiled.

Is that cause all the sediment has been boiled out of the it the first time?

You are more likely to be killed by a doctor than by a stroke, diabetes, a car wreck, a natural disaster, anything except a heart attack or cancer, in fact.

According to The Journal of the American Medical Association, issue 7-26-00, errors associated with physician intervention are the third leading cause of death in the United States.

You're on the right track.  It's not sediment, but dissolved oxygen that boils out.
