Organized lighting. So… who has the power, skill, and training, to organize lightning? We are slaves. Every one of us. Absolutely. Slaves to electricity. When the power goes out we sit in the dark, tormented by sensory deprivation— no TV, no computer, the food spoils. That’s...

You may be the one to save a city from an undetected volcano. Or to warn a coastal nation of an imminent tsunami. Or to detect a potential landslide that would cover a valley village. Or discover a new mineral or petroleum field worth trillions. Or a fossil field packed with T-Rexes. Or a flaw...
