    I followed the #2 link he linked about cloud seeding. From the article:

    Veteran Houston meteorologist Travis Herzog weighed in this week, calling the theory scientifically unfounded.

    “Cloud seeding cannot create a storm of this magnitude or size. In fact, cloud seeding cannot even create a single cloud,” Herzog said. “All it can do is take an existing cloud and enhance the rainfall by up to 20% — and even that is on the high end.”

    He compared the theory to blowing out a candle and assuming one could extinguish a wildfire. “It is a matter of scale,” he said.

    It’s pretty ballsy to provide a link with someone calling out your bullshit while acting as if that link proves your point.
