Putin in bid to stop rain on anniversary
16:47 Wednesday May 21st 2003
The Russian president’s powers appear to include controlling the weather. Vladimir Putin wants to guarantee sunshine to celebrate St Petersburg’s 300th birthday. If there are clouds, Putin aims to get the air force to spray chemicals on them to stop any rain. The event is due to be attended by more than fifty world leaders including US President George Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
Can he not just hand out a few umbrellas?
The only way to ensure no rain is for all Russians to avoid mowing their lawns or washing their cars.
If they had them!
I know I’m assuming a great deal here.
Pioneer add Concreting outdoors.
Last time I concreted (50m2) outdoors, we had 50 mm that night. Totally stuffed job - took 2 weeks to redo.
If Putin is good enough to do that. Perhaps he needs to come over to Australia and give the drought area rain.
I stop the rain all the time, especially when I have tea with my lawn gnomes.
