It's not like it used to be. They've interfered with the moon and changed ourweather. That's why the summer clouds sail too high to rain on our old pastures. Sonic booms have loosened all the boards in the house, and that's why we have all those flies. Things up there affect us. Like when you have an eclipse and the chickens fall asleep.
--Frank Fitzpatrick, in Thomas McGuane's novel, Nobody's Angel
