When I was little I used to believe that the wind was created and controlled by the police. I imagined huge fans the size of a house placed in the middle of the forest blowing winds in a controlled fashion. Of course the police were the only ones allowed in the forests for this reason. I believed this until the day I officially learned about wind at school.
