I think it's wrong to mess with nature. I don't think it's a good idea  :hmm:

Seriously, messing with nature will have negative effects, guess he doesn't understand that yet.

It would take so much cold water to stop a hurricane that it wouldn't even be feasible in practice.  The benefits gained by reducing a hurricane's intensity just a small amount isn't even close to the cost necessary for this project.  This whole idea is just hilarious. :bleh:
