New Ice Structure Could Help Seed Clouds, Cause Rain
ScienceDaily is reporting that a new ice chain structure may provide a better method for seeding clouds and causing rain. "Ice structures are usually built out of simple hexagonal arrangements of water molecules and this hexagonal building block motif is easily observed in the structures of snowflakes. However, during their studies Dr Angelos Michaelides and co-workers from the Fritz Haber Institute, Berlin, and the University of Liverpool have discovered a natural nanoscale ice structure formed of pentagons."
It might be successful if all those falling concrete clouds fell on a lot of people.
Might sequester quite a bit of carbon and will reduce future output more than some phony baloney cap-and-trade papal dispensations.
We could start it in New Jersey.
So, if a mouse farting in Mozambique causes the Prime Minister of Canada to have heartburn, what will seeding clouds do?

Bad Summary? This...is...SLASHDOT!
It has ever been this way and always will be.
Slashdot requires you to wait between each successful posting of a comment to allow everyone a fair chance at posting a comment.
Er...no. Slashdot requires you to wait between each "successful" posting of a comment because some shit for brains trolls were posting thousands of spam comments to articles. That has nothing to do with giving everyone a "fair chance". It's simply a method (a very shoddy method) to stop crap-flooding.

Waiting over a minute to post a comment is just plain dumb. Make it 20 seconds /.

Yes, I am behind a firewall, 4 of them running in HA mode, but what the hell does that have to do with anything? No proxy, no back button. The problem persists because it's a hacked-together retard solution to a problem that never should have occured in the first place.
Rant over.
