Some time ago Bob Collén sent me a postcard with a piece of his about dissolving clouds by staring at them, which he used to practice together with his schoolmates when he was a kid. Today I managed to dissolve my first cloud by the same method. The one I selected was not very big, but I was still surprised by its complete disappearance in less than five minutes. In spite of my understanding of the underlying physics, the palpable effect of my gaze was engaging, even inspiring.
