- bagels 13y agoWeather control, obviously.
- jld 13y agoBrushing up on his cloud computing.
- waterlesscloud 13y agoHe lives in Seattle so he has plenty of weather to be interested in. :-)
- seanmcdirmid 13y agoThere are only two kinds of weather in Seattle: you get rain for 6 months and sun for 6 months. Its quite simple actually.
- stevewillows 13y agoDon't forget the week of snow in December and the two weeks in late February!
- seanmcdirmid 13y agoSeattle gets a week of snow about once every four years, or at least it did when I lived there 10 years ago.
- farnsworth 13y agoIt literally just snowed last night and caught everyone totally off guard (melted now).
- hayksaakian 13y agoWe've been getting at least a few days per year since then
- Tuna-Fish 13y agoHis primary interests now are fighting poverty and hunger. Having a basic understanding of weather sounds like something nice to have in that situation, and if he spent the time in high school and college thinking about computers and businesses, a "for dummies" book might not be the worst place to start.
- olalonde 13y agoInterestingly, the first "for dummies" book was actually "DOS For Dummies" published in 1991, followed by "Windows For Dummies". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/For_Dummies#History http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/For_Dummies#History
- debt 13y agoWow. Just the other day I was looking at the clouds and wondering how it all works up there and not some three-hundred word blogpost; seriously, why are there different clouds? The sky is such a big part of my everyday life, yet I know nothing about it. I searched around but couldn't find any good books on clouds. This seems like a good start though. Mad respect for Bill.
