I thought testing against placebo was a standard procedure in medicine and without such testing treatments wouldn't even be approved.

I would interpret it as "fallen horizontally" with a lot of braking happening lately in the atmosphere.

Slightly offtopic, but most easiest way for detecting tampering with hardware is weighing stuff.

Couldn't you measure star motion over longer periods of time, then even minuscule amounts of motion could be detected.

I have started to view "baseload" generation more in a negative sense (as in "can't be easily turned on/off").

Also the daytime/nighttime power consumption differs almost twice, so almost any solar added only smoothens out the difference.

Also the new offshore wind turbines (>10MW) offer some extraordinary capacity factors (~60%). Makes me wonder what these capacity factors could be if we could get to 20MW turbines.

Mosquito net is the first thing that comes to mind.

Then EM pulse weapons, lasers etc.

I suspect publicity created by this will easy recoup all expenses.
