Vladimir Putin is, obviously -- because it will make him and his country richer so that he can, one day, ride into Washington on a golden stallion and lead us all into a glorious Christian future.

Or something.

Sheesh.

Lol, yet you try to start a topic about riding bikes on the streets or asking for bicycle lanes or even talk about making a town more walkable and pedestrian accessible and some people attack you head on.

Not too long ago there was a on another forum thread where some poster thought bicyclers should bike on the sidewalk and pay ridiculous fines anyway in places where biking on the sidewalk is illegal. To him it was all justified because bikes use roads too and cars pay plenty of money to use the roads, so why shouldn't bikes foot the bill too...


Sigh, why can't there be a free mode of transportation?

Tell us who is controlling the hurricane, and how it is possible to control a hurricane. Otherwise this thread is pure BS.

Weather modification is the act of intentionally manipulating or altering the weather. The most common form of weather modification is cloud seeding to increase rain or snow, usually for the purpose of increasing the local water supply.

Weather modification can also have the goal of preventing damaging weather, such as hail or hurricanes, from occurring; or of provoking damaging weather against an enemy or rival, as a tactic of military or economic warfare. Weather modification in warfare has been banned by the United Nations.

Cloud seeding is a common technique to enhance precipitation. Evidence on its safety is strong, but there are still doubts about its effectiveness. Cloud seeding entails spraying small particles (like silver iodide) onto clouds in order to affect their development, usually with the goal of increasing precipitation. Cloud seeding only works to the extent that there is already water vapor present in the air. Critics generally contend that claimed successes occur in conditions which were going to lead to rain anyway. It is used in a variety of drought-prone countries, including the United States, the People's Republic of China, India, and Russia. In the People's Republic of China there is a perceived dependency upon it in dry regions. In mountainous areas of the United States such as the Rocky Mountains and Sierra Nevada, cloud seeding has been employed since the 1950s.


Well us Canucks are not doing it but we did just have a massive drought and Record amounts of Failed Crops in North America due to the heat wave and well In 1975, the US and Canada entered into an agreement under the auspices of the United Nations for the exchange of information on weather modification activity.

it is not Russia or China but it would be us here in Canada and the U.S,. that would benifit from this storm if it means lots of heavy Rainfall to Replace the depleated Freash Water supply that are at Record Lows in the Great Lakes and Major Rivers that we drw water frm to grow our Crops that feed most of the world popualtion and feed since their is going to be huge price increases in the world market and shortages in the local food chain and supply line.

Back in the spring of 2001 Pravda interviewed a Russian economist
who accurately predicted an economic attack on the USA that would
have similar effect of nuclear fallout. She said the time of the hit would
be in the "last ten days of August", a time she said had religious meaning.

After 9-11, she was interviewed on a local Dallas radio talk show. She was
asked about any future attacks, then she spoke about the price of oil.


Today, August 29, is the anniversary of Hurricane Katrina that devastated
the same oil production area where Hurricane Isaac is today.

Cool, now can you provide proof that anyone has ever created, and controlled a hurricane?

Technology exists today that the masses know little or nothing about.
