Factories make clouds

I used to believe…

When i was young, i used to believe that the smoke coming out of factories created clouds.

One day, on the road i sow a factory where there was smoke coming out and my older brother said to me "Look it's a factory that creates clouds in the sky", and he made me believe that every day when when we pass in front of the factory.

But one day i asked my mother a question "if the factory no longer works there will be no clouds ?" and my mother told me that my brother had told me was not true and that it was a joke.
I belevied this joke for two years !! Todays i feel so stupid to have believed that.

I used to think that a large factory near our home was a cloud maker because of the steam that came out of it. I thought for a long time that some clouds were endangered so the people needed to help keep the number of clouds from going down. It wasn't until I was about 10 years old or so that I realized that it was just steam!
