As some of you know from a previous post that we are experiencing drought conditions here on the Korat Plateau in an area known as Issan, a tribal area in the Northeast of Thailand.
The Thai Royal Air Force is seeding the clouds to try to get some rain to fall. This has generally been unsuccessful only producing very black ominous clouds with little or no rainfall.
Last night we did get some very light rain for about five minutes - not hardly enough to help with the crops.
My wife and I were sitting out in the car port at her Mom's house waiting for the rain to stop so we could go home on some bicycles and she mentioned that it wasn't natural rain. It didn't have a fresh smell.
I had to agree it didn't smell fresh like rain should.
Now I am becoming paranoid about the residual chemicals in the unnatural rain that results from cloud seeding.

Well some "Paranoid People" say that the governments are working on such chemicals to control the weather (for war) and to fill it up with toxins to make people sick or kill them.
I am concerned but wont get to much into this, its only a theory so far.
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

I looked up the materials commonly used in cloud seeding and all I can tell - do not afraid...
Until rain finally will come you will grow a pair of gills and will be able to go home without any bicycle and in the hardest rain too...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

All of the chemicals used for cloud seeding are used in (relatively) tiny amounts - the controlling factor is not bulk, but surface area, so a very fine powder will work better than a lump.
If the seeding results in rain, you will have a tiny amount of residue in the rainwater - not enough to worry about. If the seeding does not result in rain, it will be spread even further by the winds.
I doubt that you have much to worry about.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I was wondering what the smell was.

The Bangor Daily News reported that 22-year-old Devon Staples was drinking with friends to celebrate the Fourth of July holiday when the accident occurred.
What a surprise.
Maine Department of Public Safety spokesperson Stephen McCausland said that Staples placed a mortar tube on his head at around 10 p.m. and set it off. Staples was reportedly killed instantly from a fatal head injury caused by the explosion.

One can only hope that if they take after their father they like to play with fireworks.

It probably was quite spectacular, especially if the second stage explosion was heading for his friends that were standing around.

If they watched and let him do it they should get some kind of award also shouldn't they?

Idiot.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???
