China and India reportedly are working to someday CONTROL their
WEATHER, to reduce the damage caused by floods, storms, droughts, and
other weather phenomena that are inimical to steady economic growth.

I hear King Canute also worked to someday CONTROL the tides!

I have the utmost respect for King Canute. He wasn't crazy, he was
pointing out to his advisors that a recommended course of action
would be as stupid as trying to control the tides- I wish
the current administration here in the US was as sane as Canute- A.
