Firstly ,to use the HAARP website is like using Whitehouse.gov to find out about WMD's. There is a lot of credible documentation about weather modification that has been going on since the 50's, and a some hard research would be a more enlightening approach.

I think it's funny that someone would take the word of a former professional wrestler (all the fights are real, right?) and a former politician (also everything they say and do is real, right?) as an information source of anything.
I have purposely not watched the show because I would start throwing things at the screen for every dumb remark, half-truth, exaggeration, and suppositon made by anyone who would appear on a show like this. It would break my TV and scare my dogs.
Especially now that the shows teaser shows Alex Jones proclaiming "they" are trying to kill JV. Right.....

First off, lets get one thing clear. Weather that affects the Earth, occurs in a layer of the atmosphere called the troposphere, and occasionally, the lower parts of the stratosphere. HAARP's target area is a layer called the ionosphere, which is some 75km's higher up than where the troposphere ends.

Also, it is not a secret classified site, which is patrolled by armed military personnel. In fact, you can even take a tour of the facility!!! Some secretive operation huh?
We recognize that there is great interest in the scientific work of the facility. In response to this interest, HAARP schedules open houses at which any and all are invited to visit the site. Several scientists are usually present at these open houses so that visitors can talk directly with those who use the facility for research. Open houses have been held most years since 1995 and have proven to be a popular event. The most recent open house was held on July 17, 2010.
Some of you wont believe this no matter what, but the HAARP website states the their purpose is as follows:
HAARP is a scientific endeavor aimed at studying the properties and behavior of the ionosphere, with particular emphasis on being able to understand and use it to enhance communications and surveillance systems for both civilian and defense purposes.
The HAARP program is committed to developing a world class ionospheric research facility consisting of:
The Ionospheric Research Instrument (IRI), a high power transmitter facility operating in the High Frequency (HF) range. The IRI will be used to temporarily excite a limited area of the ionosphere for scientific study.
A sophisticated suite of scientific (or diagnostic) instruments that will be used to observe the physical processes that occur in the excited region.
So, pretty much, what the above means, is that a signal is sent up from the array to an altitude of in between 100 and 350km's, where the signal is absorbed. The actual volume of the signal is literally only a few hundred metres thick, with a diameter of around 10 to 20 kilometres. The signal is tens of thousands less intense, to the energy and electromagnetic radiation to reach the Earcth from the sun. The purpose, to excite molecules to observe the physical processes that occur up there.
So what I m interested in is how can such as small amount of energy create or steer a weather system, as complex and chaotic as those which we see on Earth? The concept is ludicrous, considering we cant even get cloud seeding to work efficiently.
Basically, the Earth moderates itself. In other words, it tries to keep equilibirum. For instance, areas of high pressure move to areas of low pressure and vice versa. This is also the reason why two hurricanes or cyclones can not merge and create a super storm, despite the fact that they will rotate around one another. So, to target a weather system at a certain point, you literally have to produce, alter and decay several things:
1. The jetstream location
2. Surrounding pressure systems, in close proximity to the on you want to move
3. The temperature of the ocean
4. Wind shear, and wind direction (which tie in with pressue systems)
5. The effects of La Nina, or El Nino weather patterns
6. The input of the suns energy
7. Cloud cover in close proximity
These several factors all come into play, yet I cant see how one small array can manipulate all these points?
So please, enlighten the entire meteorology community, because obviously we dont know as much about weather and the mechanisms that drive weather, as what conspiracy theorists do.
(And please do yourselves all a favour and learn a little bit about basic meteorology....how can you prove something when you dont even know how a hurricane forms, and how is works :puz
So come on HAARP'ies what part of the conspiracy am I missing here?
