China to Use Silver Iodide & Dry Ice to Control the Weather
eldavojohn writes "While we made light of it before, the MIT Review is taking a serious look at China's plans to prevent rain over their open 91,000 seat arena for The Olympics. From the article: 'China's national weather-engineering program is also the world's largest, with approximately 1,500 weather modification professionals directing 30 aircraft and their crews, as well as 37,000 part-time workers — mostly peasant farmers — who are on call to blast away at clouds with 7,113 anti-aircraft guns and 4,991 rocket launchers.' They plan on demonstrating their ability to control the weather to the rest of the world, and expanding on their abilities in the future."
never mind the Chinese, we westerners dis one better (shame on us)
> try justify (switch on FOX news and wait a minute and you will get all sorts of justifications) killing half a million people in Iraq in last few years...
I'm a long time Bush supporter
Have you seriously considered taking the only possible course open to you to gain a scrap of integrity and put a bullet in your cowardly, deluded traitor's brain?
Try using facts next time and stay within the bounds of reality....There is no other possible set of qualities you could possess that would cause you to be a Bush supporter long time or short time....Or just do the only decent thing left to you after the massive damage you've willfully aided and kill yourself.
The reality is, you need to be building a statue to me. I'd like mine in marble please. You don't have to start right away though. I allow you to finish, right after you finish carving George Bush's face into Mt. Rushmore. I'm trying to think, now, should we call Bush, Bush the GREAT, or Bush the WONDERFUL champion. I just don't know. Lot's of big decisions to make.
This is my sig.
