Let me clarify something - I meant no insult.
Difference of opinion is valid. And I respect that, since people base their viewpoints on their own experiences, their knowledge and as much reason as they can.
Maybe a comparison with Game was too extreme, because that is something that anyone meets in his daily life. Though most guys refuse to acknowledge it for some reason.
That kind of modification goes way beyond cloud seeding by the way. There were reports about being able to produce multiple tornadoes and directing them as well as creating earthquakes. But hey - it is useless to discuss anyway, since you would have to take a hard look into all the info out there. You can trust me that my perception is based not on a frail tin-foil-hat-youtube-video created by some dim-witted Ron-Paul-goldbug. But a greater discussion would be quite extensive. Still interesting to see how RVF members stand on the issue.
I cannot really blame people for making assessments based on their current knowledge and experience. Their opinion or perception - just as mine - can change if we meet new data that sheds a different light on the issue. I personally am willing to question anything and even concede an error on my part. No ego there.
Since this is part of a more complicated matter it would take a weekend or week spent over some good scotch to get a good overview of how I came to my conclusions. Maybe on the future Manosphere island in the Pacific Drinks on me.
