    And this is the problem with the way she worded it and everyone blowing it off as just weird instead of straight up fucking stupid.

      well she didn’t mean any of the rain precipitators. She meant, they actively controlled hurricanes. It’s both weird and fucking stupid.

      Actually. I wonder what would happen if you took a microwave array, of appropriately huge power, and directed it at the hurricane’s flanks, you know. to heat up the water on that side. maybe make some wind. I bet you could steer it “some”…

      (Mexico, if you’re reading this, I absolutely won’t try this, if you send me your best street taco recipe.)

        She didn’t know what she means. I bet she’s heard of SA rain control in some off handed meeting and just strung a line of bullshit from that. Then weasel worded this so she could fall back on that.
