This is a mashup I did of the Thom Hartmann Show (07.01.11) and in the background are videos of the weather in Minnesota on July 1, 2011, as uploaded by various Youtubers - search term simply "Minnesota".
Massive weather attack campaign going on there right now, coincidentally? idk. Just an observation. Minnesota seems like a perfectly obscure, docile state to test run this crap in. (mini-rant @ the bottom)
