I saw someone the other day saying Gen X votes a certain way because breathing lead from leaded gasoline cost them X many IQ points. I am pretty sure this was sarcasm, but you can’t tell anymore.

I am not given to any conspiracies. Today the subject was HAARP. (Defunct research project to attempt ionospheric heating). I was actually tangentially associated with HAARP for a while. Being a life long ham the prospect of creating a patch of ionosphere that could reflect HF signals any time of the day or night was very exciting. The problem is, it never worked. They learned a whole bunch about the upper atmosphere but the initial promise never worked out. But wow, is there a group believing that the guvmnt can control the weather. Yes, they can with cloud seeding etc but not with HAARP. And control is not really a good word, more like influence. I try to speak reason, share some facts, always falls on deaf ears. HAARP was heating the ionosphere. There ain’t no weather up there. Weather is in the troposphere. Troposcatter can inject a bit of energy in the troposphere but it is 100 times higher frequencies and produces no noticeable increase in temperature. Here is a fact: Warmer air can hold more moisture. Something like 7% per degree. Don’t recall if that was F or C. If you could selectively and effectively heat the atmosphere with something like radiowaves interesting things could happen. Even nefarious things. So far, no system has been demonstrated. Inverse square law governs. If you calculate the specific heat of a large enough volume of air (Like a sphere 20 miles in diameter) the amount of energy needed for the transmitters would be on the scale of several nuclear powered aircraft carriers to power the transmitter. Better just to launch small nukes with cloud seeding fall out. Here is another fact: For as long as there have been thermometers, humans have been keeping a record of temperatures. Some of those old thermometers actually survived so that their inaccuracies could be characterized and their records could be adjusted to modern standards. Here is another fact: All the records indicate a non linear increase in temperatures. So circle back to the beginning, warmer air == more moisture in the air. More moisture in the air makes clouds which make storms and rain. Occam's Razor. _____ -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
