Nothing Like a Good Conspiracy Theory!

Being inquisitive by nature, and just a wee-bit suspicious, there's nothing like a good conspiriacy theory to get my synapses firing!
Here's a dandy:

A Pocatello weatherman who gained attention for an unusual theory that Hurricane Katrina was caused by the Japanese mafia using a Russian electromagnetic generator has quit the television station. Stevens believes a little-known oversight in physical laws makes it possible to create and control storms using a Cold War-era weapon allegedly made by the Russians in 1976.

Weather Control is not a new idea. Many have written about it for years.
In fact, I have considered the prospect of human creation of hurricanes myself. After all, have you ever noticed that they seem to eminate from the SAME place along the African coast time after time?
Just seems unusual.

Earlier this week, scientists told the Idaho Falls Post Register the theory was bogus.
"It's laughable to think it (Hurricane Katrina) could have been manmade," said Rob Young, a hurricane expert at Western Carolina University in Cullowhee, N.C.

A blanket denial by a scientist with no investigation? Isn't science all about investigation? This is reason enough to give the theory some credence.

Anyway, visit Scott at his web site and get those neurons firing!
