| Re: Name That Cloud
Dear Tamworth Thankyou for the beautiful collection of Clouds with really very good systematic characterization. From European background having been trained mostly metric and centigrade and kg scales etc I still have my difficulties with the age-honoured and much more brain-work requesting insular type scales, but probably my grandchildren (2/3 of them are at school already) will see that most will be given with the EU-and UK-scales alongside primarily. From several flight-trips to Asia I have with great interest followed the different cloud forms and find your systematic approach very helpful. Maybe I can let you have some new Pix. As Medical with holistic Bio-Interests I got hold of some books (IAEA-Vienna) which treated the Problems of Isotopic variations in clouds (They are talking about height-depending fractionated distillation). As this is a generally applicable approach even to plant’s reactions and “Stress” during the day at any place of the world (though more so in the mid-latitudes) and even related to the various forms of Hydrogen-Peroxydes with the socalled “Reactive Oxygen Species” I have compiled for myself some facts, which appear on first sight as confusing as any new system. But once you are aware of the possible variables, it boils down to a generally applicable key to recognize and explain some phenomena, which hitherto stay unexplained like D.U.O. (Diseases of Unknown Origin), of which some quite serious ones had even officially for 10 years been called G.O.K.(“God only knows”). And the Dogmata which tend to come up in any Section of Science as soon as there is a “School” and “Headmaster” or “Expert”, every-one is allowed to come up with his own System, which then has to be corrected by discussion with the neighbouring Sciences. If however it tends to collide with financial interests of the Sponsors, there is soon the end of Funds or "Fundo-Pause". And then we are all stuck with feet in Mud up to the hips and head in clouds, wondering about heavy weather and new phenomena. Like around the "Ignorosphere" above the Tropopause and below the Mesopause. And then the big and omnipotent best-promoted "Science" has to be experimentally sounded and re-founded and re-adjusted annually not to name obvious causative factors disturbing NATURE as the biggest invention which Mankind is trying to master without knowing the plan, assuming own rules and not accepting any rules as primarily given and not to be altered….The Eastern Way was more awe- and respect rendering to unknown phenomena until recently. Benjamin Franklin never went to a University and was a good friend of Newton, reading his books in original Latin and apparently had more Respect to Nature due to his Knowledge about the Electric Phenomena in Meteorology than some big Safety concerned Firms would like to admit own neglect or ignorance about. But that’s a different story alltogether.
