I know a guy who was trying to capture lightning and use it to charge batteries. Well, good luck. The easy part is predeicting where it will land. There are places where you can count on a few bolts every day. A lightning rod will grab and catch it very easilt then what? A small bolt probably cariies several million volts of electicity at a current of easily 20,000 amps, often much more. What ever machine we connect that to with instantly explode from that much power comming in. (Compare that to the New York City Subway system that runs on 600 amps. Plenty of current to kil a human.)
Magic is like Science,
Both are fun if you do it right! |

Destroy the moon. The moon helps create tides from gravitational forces. Tides would be much calmer without the moon.

I predict Dynamike will take a journey to a movie theater to watch Geostorm.

If humans help increase global warming, that will become a lot of control on Mother Nature.

As Tom C noted above, we can influence nature in some ways. We've eliminated species and destroyed ecosystems. Our cities absorb heat, changing local climates. We dam rivers, fill the ocean with plastic and fill the atmosphere with toxic chemicals.
From a natural perspective, the last couple of centuries have demonstrated that humans pretty much suck. Yet, we are limited. We possess the capability to make the planet uninhabitable by our descendants. But we don't seem to be fully capable of destroying the entire thing. Give us time.

I bet scientist are already ahead with ideas but will not tell us. Come to think of it, I wonder if their test and experiments are causing the disasters we are having presently.

Yes, they created a time machine in the future, and they are transporting their storms back to our time. That's why the increased number. The machine is stuck on our time period and they can't send them anywhere else like they were doing for years.

Tom Cutts look outside!
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.
