conversations with Tom

me:
So why can't they just blast through the mountains so the clouds have a way of escaping this part of the world...this so called CONVERGENCE ZONE?!?

Tom:
Laura, they don't salt the streets when it snows because they might kill a toad so I doubt they would blow up a mountain range.

me:
I'm not saying they have to blow through an entire range, they could just blast enough to make like an alley and then the rain clouds would be able to blow on through and leave this place.

Tom:
I think you'd need some giant fans to move these clouds.

me:
Now you're thinking!! Who can we write to? The President? Who can do this???

Tom:
I think he's busy with the oil spill.

me:
Well as soon as that's plugged, they need to get the F**K out here and do something!

Tom:
Ok, ok. Write your letter.

Tom's right, it's a very complex issue... assuming the oil leak is cleaned up by November, well, that's election season, and nobody is going to want to make a move on the "convergence zone wind tunnel project," or whatever they are going to call it. Don't expect anything to happen for a few decades at least. Stoopid gummint.
