Noting that after military battles the weather frequently turns rainy, early scientists tried to recreate the effect. The cause of the rain after a battle is that droplets form around the smoke and dust particles in the air. But the early rain makers thought it was because the sky was shocked by the explosions. So they tried to make it rain by shooting cannons into the air or carrying explosives aloft in balloons. Their attempts were horrendously noisy, but mostly unsuccessful.

what will kill your website is lousy hosting. If your existing website is slow, or quits working periodically, it’s costing you a lot! I wrote about that here so you can know the truth.

You’d think in this day and age, the only thing that anyone would want the military to do is make rain.
