I have no idea what to think of this HIGH FREQUENCY ACTIVE AURORAL RESEARCH PROGRAM to control earth's weather patterns. I first learned of this from a caller to talk radio who was commenting on Katrina and the conspiracy to reap profit from fuel prices.

I have read some of the links that I have found on HAARP, and it stands to reason that by creating waves in this atmospheric pool that one could control the weather like a ripple in a pond (you just need a very big hand). Storm systems are low spots that let the violent conditions of outer space come closer to the surface of our planet. Conversely the high waves are stable thicker coverage of atmosphere making nicer conditions. The change of the pressure points cause the flow to rapidly move causing wind and the frontal systems that make the news hourly. The swirls at the edges are the wicked storms like the hurricanes and tornadoes. Watching a paddle in the water next to your canoe is a representation from the Jed school of oversimplified observation (Jed-self proclaimed "Prophet of the Obvious").

I have heard some scholars on the early books of the Bible talk of the very long lives of humans attributed to a much thicker and consistent atmosphere that could have existed many years ago. In fact, in the discussion of Noah and the arc, it was said in early translations that rain had never occurred before that time. His building of a boat away from a body of water was extremely abstract to the people who had never seen more than a constant mist that kept the earth green. This thicker blanket on earth may have kept even more space rays away from humans. Toxins and oxidants were also much less prevalent adding greatly to a lifespan.

If you have time, help me to understand if this HAARP thing is real from your point of view. I am gullible and not as well read as most folks, and I have my own self learned ways of viewing things. I welcome the input of anyone reading this little web log. Send me links and your thoughts if you find this topic interesting or ridiculous.

Yo, Jed -
In the weeks after Katrina, I too found some of the info you refer to here and yes some of sounds wacky, right?
Did a little research and found more news to really scare the bejesus out of anyone. It is the congressional bill, titled "Weather Modification Research and Technology Transfer Act."
The language regarding "modification" of weather indicates there have been and are new technologies regarding the control of weather.
The Bill is here, HR 2995, sent to committee in June of this year, and the site address is http://thomas.loc.gov/
and type in the above bill number.
Some quotes from the bill -
WEATHER MODIFICATION- The term `weather modification' means changing or controlling, or attempting to change or control, by artificial methods the natural development of atmospheric cloud forms or precipitation forms which occur in the troposphere.

There has been an existing Weather Modification Board within the Dept. of Commerce for years.

Truly odd implications of what our government has been up to for a long time.

I can always count on the cup of joe to have the scoop! Thanks for the info.

I have been reading the cup a lot more than I comment there, you always cover your story so very well. Thanks for the visit here at Jed.

Always glad to have readers, Jed. Thnanks for yer generous review.

And I did take some note Saturday all the cable THNN (Talking Heads News Networks) were glued to the storm and didn't mention the 100,000 plus war protestors in D.C. -- so job done, the storm kept em distracted.

Here's to hoping a Perfect Storm is building for the elections in 2006.

Distraction is the best hand to play when ripping someone off.

Wandering Hillbilly has a great diverted Saturday News collection.

Jim Phelps who is a DOE whistleblower who retired from out at Oak Ridge has an interesting website that covers a lot of information on this. His take on things that he was privy to during his work at Oak Ridge is quite interesting. Check it out at http://members.aol.com/doewatch/

I'm not convinced it's POSSIBLE to find out what HAARP's up to - it's a device, and different people can use it for different agendas.

Research into who's involved and what they do either disappears behind the curtain of secrecy or drifts off into the wacko ozone.

Likewise with the theory - who wants to be the judge of which of Tesla's theories and experiments panned out? Between labs burning behind you and bushes burning in front of you.

But if it simply does what its builders state it does, it can be APPLIED to a lot more things than just weather.
