    THAT said, I saw one report indicating that the placement of these barriers affected air currents in such a way as to promote transmission.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      It may very well be the case that these barriers are pointless and don't do what they are supposed to do, but the caption struck me as an instance of sloppy thinking.

        Sure, they would create mountain waves.

        The air bounces on the ground and comes back up.

        Any student pilot knows this.

                              I've long been of the opinion that what really determines whether something is considered to be a weed or a plant is how easily it grows.

                              I was only joking

                                  I think Mark Twain said that the way to distinguish between weed and flower is to pull on it. If it comes up easily, it's a flower. If it's stubborn, it's a weed.
