here's one. lets train hundreds of thousands of pigeons to fly directly into the wind of a hurricane. a sufficient number of pigeons should reverse the circulation and weaken the hurricane.

better yet, lets build a giant leafblower in the bahamas and turn it on when a hurricane is coming out of the atlantic.

or how about this, which could actually work: defoliate the entire continent of africa north of the equator, so that the saharan air layer chokes the itcz more and keeps cape verde storms from forming in large numbers.

hurricanes are there for a reason. if you push nature it will push back. i don't see pushing something as big and scary as a hurricane as a very wise... not at all.

and besides, i'll take good sound forecasting, good emergency planning and well-executed relief efforts over all the dynogel and project stormfury in the world. not to leave out liquid air and... uh... network security.
