Artificial, superficial...

Well, much to Lisa's dismay, the thunderstorm the other day was not sent by God. It was sent by the UAE. The clouds were seeded and the public was notified after the fact (of course). They plan to continue these experiments throughout the summer. You know, we have manmade islands here, manmade waterways, manmade grass, etc. etc. Now even the rain isn't real! Well, the rain is real...just not the cause. Nevertheless...a thunderstorm is a thunderstorm. Or is it?
