OMG! This is one of the worst ideas I have seen in a long time. Shortwave radio broadcast has been in decline simply because with the advent of practically universal worldwide handheld communication devices amateur radio has had difficulty capturing the minds of individual people. The Internet has given access to communications in the form of text, speech, vision, etc around the world and in modalities beyond measure. What the Air Force is talking about here is in reality polluting the ionosphere on a massive scale. It is the equivalent of contaminating or poisoning the ocean. Making the ionosphere opaque to electromagnetic radiation of any form would be fraught with difficulties beyond measure. Developing and using such an ability and using it as a weapon is (at least in my view) insane! "Keep your hands off my ionosphere!" would be my slogan!!!

Movies - video of any kind help only when they show something that can not be described in words or a single picture. An editor responsive to a community is a rarity to be treasured. But finding some that actually listen and actuate positive change and don't appear to be frightened by real feedback is something I thought I would not see here again and am glad to be reading again. Don't stop!
