Kansas "thermals". Note the characteristic green near the upper
right from about 2:30 on. If you're in the air and you haven't already found
enough reasons to get out of there or land, the green is produced by prismatic
effects when large hail is present in the supercell. Get out of there. mehr

It's a question that goes back to the middle ages, to a Latin
phrase that translates to "he owns the soil owns up to the heavens." In England,
this phrase was the law of the land for centuries, and it worked well when
