One worker nearly passed out when he stuck his head in the accumulator.
Rocks on the fireplace crumbled mysteriously. Granite sticking out of the
ground several hundred yards away in the infected area blackened.
Dark, dull clouds hung overhead for days. The clouds seemed to be
connected with an anti-life effect, and people's health worsened in their
personal weak areas. For several weeks, radiation counts measured on
Geigercounters in a radius of 300 miles from Orgonon were unusually
high. Reich did his best to wash and decontaminate the building and
surrounding area, but it took a long time and caused much stress to the
people at Orgonon.
CLOUDBUSTER
The disaster had a side effect. In an effort to clear the depressing clouds
from the area, Reich invented the device he later called the cloudbuster. It
is made simply—from hollow metal tubes pointed at an angle at the sky
and grounded at the other end in flowing water, because water attracts the
life force. The bundle of pipes is said to draw orgone out of the sky wherever
it is pointed.
Why would Reich want to do that He and his associates would reply
that radioactive fallout and other pollutants turn the lively natural-state
orgone into a stale, stagnant, dead form of orgone which he called DOR,
which stands for Deadly Orgone Radiation. He said DOR is a factor in
causing droughts by inhibiting rain and cloud formation. One theory of
cloudbusting is that by drawing the DOR out of the sky with a cloudbuster
and then getting the healthy orgone moving again, the atmosphere returns
to its natural cycles which include rain.
For several years he researched what could be done with a cloudbuster
to change weather, and said he learned how to raise the energetic level of
the surrounding atmosphere instead of just decrease it. When he took his
cloudbusting equipment to Arizona, events became really strange, including
alleged experiences with UFOs. Reich's journal of his 1954 journey
reveals an unusual ability to sense the natural landscape and its moods,
similar to the awareness and sensitivities of aboriginal peoples.
Reich viewed the cloudbusting operation as beneficial, bringing rain to
the southwest in January 1955. One morning in Tucson there was so much
rain that planes were unable to land at the airport. The previous weeks, he
reported prairie grass had sprouted in the desert until in December 1954 the
grass was a foot high on land that had been barren as long as anyone living
could remember. This work was not as well documented, perhaps because
of the distractions of a coming showdown with the government agents.
Meanwhile, the United States Food and Drug Administration gathered
a case against his use of the orgone accumulator for therapy. The FDA and
