We need to offer up a Prius sacrifice to appease the Gods, or maybe it should be a Humvee.

Kurt:

  I disagree. Counter-clockwise is the direction of rotation for a low pressure cell which bring the rain. We need to spin up a high pressure cell by turning clockwise.  Also it works better is the spinners have a large surface area to catch more wind.  So lets get all of us large people up and spinning.   Of course it's the opposite for the southern hemisphere.   Also I know the curse is started by someone buying a new telescope.  Can we reverse the effect if some one sells a telescope to someone out of state?  That should more the curse to a different local.   Or maybe BUILDING a telescope intensifies the curse.  If that's the case then it's all Mark's fault.   DT _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list Utah-Astronomy@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy Visit the Photo Gallery: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php

It depends on where the weather demons reside. If they're underground looking up, which you might expect with demons, your clockwise movements will be counterclockwise to them, and vice verse. I say it's safer to pray for a drought. -- jb ________________________________ From: daniel turner <outwest112@yahoo.com> To: "utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com" <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Sunday, June 19, 2011 5:22 PM Subject: [Utah-astronomy] weather curse Kurt:   I disagree. Counter-clockwise is the direction of rotation for a low pressure cell which bring the rain.
