Totally different endeavors.
We know that there will never be, say, specific forecasts of hurricane landfall locations a year, or even a month ahead of time..that's been proven mathematically.
It's a chaotic system for which there will never be perfect data.
Anyway, anyone actually investing in this company would do as well to pile some cash up and light it on fire.
Funny, I still seem to recall reading people saying almost exactly the same things about combustion engines and air streams... Wind being chaotic and all would make it impossible to sustain controlled flight. The human body cannot sustain speeds in excess of 60 mph... nothing but a bullet will ever travel that fast.
Just as there are limits to science, their are limits to nature. We beat sound. We conceive mastering energy-matter transfomations. Hell, we have hand-held devices more powerful than considered possible (and smaller) just 30 years ago.
They started reading electromagnetic fluctuations. Something a little more steady and constant (from our planet) than wind patterns. And we're talking hours notice, not years or months. We already have weeks notice on hurricanes. Days on suspected landfall.
Not asking you to donate to them. Just root for the dark horse once in a while.
Even if you are right about the system, who's to say what scientific benefits we wouldn't achieve from the reading systems they've developed?
