When i was about 5-6, i thought factories expelling white smoke were making clouds for a sunny weather while factories producing black smoke were producing rain clouds and would cause the rain to come soon. It never occured to me that different factories come out with different coloured smoke. I thought it was according to the weather they wanted that day. So i would pretty disappointed if i didn't want it to rain but saw a factory producing black "clouds".
