(2) (3) 31 this, they instituted a crash program of development and were prepared to risk interruptions of worldwide communications and detection of their experiments and thereby disclosure of their objectives to the western powers. The ends justified the means. As part of this crash program, the Soviet scientists set up much larger more powerful standing waves, boosting the power to 40 million kilowatts producing what they calculated to be the optimum resonant frequency transmitted of 7 pulses per minutes. The result was enormous standing waves of an amplitude far greater than they had calculated.. So large in fact that they were thoroughly frightened and shut down the equipment. Under normal circumstances when power is removed from standing waves in a resonant circuit they normally dissipate in what is termed a "damped oscillation", with the wave amplitude decreasing exponentially with each completed cycle and in a relatively short time they are dissipated altogether. However, in this case this did not occur and the standing waves maintained almost their full amplitude. Thoroughly alarmed, the Soviets started radiating intense bursts of high frequency power in efforts to disseminate these waves and make them fade away. During the SALT re-negotiations the Soviets most uncharacteristically and very suddenly requested that the clauses that banned the use of artificial manipulation of weather patterns as a means of waging war be modified to include very specifically the use of electrical means of stimulating and modifying global and local weather patterns. In making this request the Soviets were stepping completely out of line with their normal known methods of negotiation. On May the 18th, 1977 with what appeared to be imprudent haste, the Soviet Government signed an agreement with the United States and 29 other countries promising never to attack each other by starting man-made storms, earthquakes or tidal waves. The date is significant because at that time the Soviets were
