Weather modification is still a nutty supposition. The states recognize all kinds of woke nonsense, and a fear of weather modification is part of the crazy menu. They also thought that it was a good idea to institute highway speed limits at 55 mph, so it is very unjustified to use state legislatures as a litmus test for credibility. Patents are all talk and wishful thinking, until and unless somebody does something about them (yet to be established). I have nothing against patents; I have several. But none of them have been built as described.
DEWs are merely a public fact. Only the uninformed think otherwise. They have been in the aerospace press that long. Major developments have occurred (e.g., YAL-1A). But space-based lasers are still paper ideas only, with no indication of any reality. (Now, the Chinese have supposedly announced their intention to develop a space-based laser system, but it remains to be seen whether that is for technology testing, communication experiments, or weapon application.) Rationality must prevail---at least among us.
Yep. Cloud-seeding for rain was a practice back in the 1950s. I remember seeing a segment of "You Asked For It," that showed how it was done. It took a while for the seeding to have effect. No "chemtrails."

Might not mean anything, but this is an old encyclopedia I have from 1986...
