Really-From: Michael Mendelson <mendel@cs.uiuc.edu> I do not know the details, and this is second-hand information, but apparently, sometime last week, the Canadian news show "As It Happens" did a piece on a scientist (I don't know from where or who) who, using Reichian Cloudbusting-based methods, has achieved a rain-inducing machine which (he claims) works with 80% reliability. Did anyone else hear about this? I'm sure we'd all be interested in details given the recent revival of interest in the Organon discussion. . /\/\ / /\/\ / / /_/ / / /

Now that I'm caught up . . . Yes! I heard it on my trusty shortwave, my link to reality (CBC, BBC, Radio France,...). There is some kind of foundation in California that runs a programme on Reich's Cloudbusting idea. They take contract work from farmers, rural counties and even from some northwestern states a year or two ago to fight forest fires. I don't know if transcripts of that show can be ordered, but it was last tuesday or wednesday (I think). -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Je me souviens ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gary L.
