Wednesday chase

From Dan: How the crime of copyright infringement took $1 million from me and shut down my operation.

In September of 2025, my work is generating the most income it ever has in my career. Yet, I'm being forced to shut down my successul operation, against my will, due to one cause alone: 95% of that revenue is being stolen by piracy and copyright infringement. I've lost more than $1 million to copyright infringement in the last 15 years, and it's finally brought an end to my professional storm chasing operation. Do not be misled by the lies of infringers, anti-copyright activists and organized piracy cartels. This page is a detailed, evidenced account of my battle I had to undertake to just barely stay in business, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem faced by all of my colleagues and most other creators in the field.

A few quick shots from this afternoon. Got a crazy shelf cloud on the crest of a bow echo near Sissonville, probably the best storm structure scene I've seen so far in West Virginia. Witnessed another 2 tower hits in St. Albans, bringing the total known strikes to the tower to 12 in the past 20 hours. The June 2008 WV 'chaseathon' continues tonight, with yet another round of storms moving in from Ohio and Kentucky!
