Storm Renorators and Bell Ringers Proposed to Ward Storms

In a paper before the French Academy of Sciences Mons Minard suggests many lightning rods on tall telegraph poles linked by railway metals to reduce storm violence. Others favor artillery discharge, while Mr W Matthieu Williams notes bell ringing as a calmer method. The idea hinges on aerial sound waves aiding gradual discharge between electrical air strata and the earth.
