Dear sirs:
As disreputable as it can be to engage in the unethical
and
underhanded, it can be as vile to know about the
unscrupulous, and not
acknowledge its existence.
The past few years has seen an unusual occurrence in the
skies over
the country.
Several or more times a month, jet planes, flying
overhead, would start
leaving unorthodox trails in the sky. Instead of the
normal kind of
contrails, usually accredited to jet aircraft, which
stretch for a short
distance behind the tail of the jet, and dissipate, as
the sun warms and
evaporates the ice crystals in the tails, these would
stretch, generally,
from horizon to horizon. Jets would fly overhead,
spouting white,
straight, thin clouds behind them, but, instead of
disappearing quickly,
they would persist stubbornly, forming a long path
across the sky.
The lane of cloud laid, then, would start to spread,
side to side. Over the
space of up to several hours, it would hang in the air,
expanding. As it
spread, it would thin, but not enough to completely
evaporate. Indeed,
apparently, never does a chemtrail actually evaporate!
Instead, it would
form a haze, sometimes even oily in appearance, from one
side of the
sky to the other, marking the path the jet took, but
many, many times
wider.
As the substance left behind by the passing plane slowly
spread across
the sky, it would come to be joined by one, then
another, then another,
as other jets covered the same area of sky. Eventually -
in a very short
time, in fact! - the entire sky could be covered with a
wispy haze, and
what was once a crystal clear day, now wouldn,t show a
single patch of
blue! And what sun did manage to shine through could,
often, be
accompanied by an oily, multi-colored reflection from
the substance now
lying thickly overhead.
This has been a commonplace in the United States, and
apparently,
numerous other countries, as well, for about six years
now! Those who
examine these phenomena have termed them "chemtrails",
to distinguish
them from contrails, and to emphasize the evident
presence of foreign
substances in the clouds. Since about 1997, these tracks
have been a
constant presence in the skies of the country.
Sometimes, they can be in parallel lines.
Sometimes, there can be several.
Sometimes, there can be many, all at once.
Sometimes, they can be curved.
Sometimes, they can form "X",s.
Sometimes, they form "H",s.
Sometimes, they can form more elaborate patterns.
Sometimes, they will form the collections of lines
called "spider webs" or
"grids".
Sometimes, they will form what is called the "fan
pattern".
And, often, strange and even abnormal and bizarre
effects can also be
observed.
And, when the trails appear, they can cause many
different effects,
besides ruining the appearance of a day.
In some places afflicted by chemtrails, it is reported,
for example, that,
shortly afterward, heavy rains, likely induced by the
trails, will form. But
these rains, often, will rain down strange materials,
evidently from the
tracks in the sky.
Some rainfalls will produce a thick, viscous, reddish
material covering
trees, cars and houses. Sometimes, a fine, spider web-
like substance
will be evident everywhere. And, often, residents living
below the clouds
will begin to experience serious symptoms, from headache
to muscle
aches to nausea to difficulty breathing to bloody noses!
Many describe
the symptoms as similar to flu and, indeed, in areas
over which the
chemtrails are formed, it is reported, advertisements
for volunteers in a
study of flu will appear in local newspapers a couple of
days before the
onslaught of chemicals in the sky.
Attempts at analysis have been attempted by numerous
individuals
determined to find out what is being done to the people,
and frequently
opposed by evident betrayers of the public mandate. The
analyses that
have been attempted have yielded constituents of the
chemtrails ranging
from ethylene dibromide to aluminum chaff to barium
oxide to
pseudonomas fluoroscens and pseudonomas aeruginosa.
Ethylene dibromide is a compound which, due to its fire
repellant
properties, has been added to JP-4 jet fuel to produce
JP-8 fuel. It is a
potent pesticide, which has also been listed by the EPA
as one of the
deadliest chemicals known.
Aluminum chaff is powder, as fine as talc, used to
scramble enemy
radar.
Barium oxide is a crystalline compound purportedly
useful for reflecting
radio signals, supposedly making it possible to transmit
over the curve of
the earth.
Pseudonomas fluoroscens is a bacteria capable of
producing potent,
flu-like symptoms. Pseudonomas aeruginosa, on the other
hand, is
considered one of the deadliest pathogens known.
These are only a few of the unusual materials found in
abnormal
abundance after chemtrail appearances in many parts of
the country! In
their wake, numerous theories have been advanced for
their presence.
Aluminum chaff has been suggested as being used to
prevent terrorist
communications from being successful in the country.
Barium oxide has been proposed to be being employed to
facilitate
American military and governmental broadcasts across the
nation and
overseas. It has also been linked to the generally
obscure, but
technically public, HAARP project. HAARP stands for High
Frequency
Active Auroral Research Program. It resides on a site
apparently more
than a mile square, near Galcona, Alaska. The purpose of
the site is an
almost 30 acre array of 180 antennas. They represent
their intent to be
to develop methods of using the earth,s aurora to
facilitate
communication and as an espionage tool. Barium oxide
crystals are
believed effective in this.
Ethylene dibromide and the numerous pathogens often
found in
abundance after massive chemtrail presence over an area
have led to
considerations that everything from eugenics to
wholesale destruction of
populations is an aim of the apparent campaign of serial
spraying over
the country.
Other theories such as weather manipulation and control
of global
warming have been advanced for the spraying in the skies
over the
nation. The fact that rainstorms are often claimed to
result from
chemtrails in the Pacific Northwest can relate to this,
but, in that area,
many of the instances of severe sickness after
chemtrails have also
been reported.
In fact, though, it is often possible to raise
objections to each theory, and
that fact is frequently employed by those who call
themselves
"debunkers" to criticize, demean and even baldly
ridicule those who
want an answer to the issue of chemtrails! It is
possible to counter each
theory, it appears, because, in fact, no one is
universally correct! It
appears that many different purposes are being served by
chemtrails,
and, for each, different substances are being sprayed
into the air. To
claim one unique purpose for every case of aerial
spraying is to run the
risk of not identifying correctly what is being done in
each particular
area.
For example, in the Northeastern part of the United
States, chemtrails
have been a prevalent sight for some time, now. However,
there, they
rarely, if ever, precipitate a rainstorm. Indeed, in
that part of the country,
the purpose of chemtrails seems to be to forestall
rainfall.
Since at least winter of 2002, that part of the country
has experienced
massive drought. Reservoir levels are down almost to
record lows, if not
actually below them! Yet, in that time, chemtrailing has
been very
frequent! In fact, it had become a pattern that
forecasters would predict
showers or even thunderstorms a couple of days ahead,
then chemtrails
would be seen in abundance in the sky, and, afterward,
the predicted
precipitation would not come! The region would be lucky
if it got a
misting on days when, previously, thunderstorms were
forecast. This
went on through most of the winter of 2002, and has
begun, again, the
past couple of months.
The reason for this seems to be that, in the Northeast,
the purpose of
chemtrails was to disturb the process that can generate
a rainstorm.
In general, a rainstorm can occur if warm, wet air rises
particularly
quickly into an overlying cold area. This can result in
the rapid cooling of
water into clouds like thunderheads. The sudden,
uncontrolled invasion
of wet air into cool air seems to spawn many of the
systems that give
rise to rainstorms.
What chemtrails seem to have been used to accomplish,
for at least the
past year in the Northeast, has been to steadily gently
mix the air at the
boundary layers between air masses. Flying in the border
between wet
and cold air, the chemtrails seem to have been intended
to control the
rate and degree of mixing of the air, allowing cloud
banks to form, but
not swiftly and suddenly. Wispy but not stormy cirrus
clouds were the
inevitable result, each time, the sky hazing over into a
sheet of white, but
never cumulous clouds.
Among other things countering the "arguments" of
debunkers that
chemtrails are only normal contrails, and not some kind
of controlled
program on the part of government, is that, when
chemtrails formed in
the Northeast, for at least the past year, cumulous
clouds never formed!
If chemtrails were harmless and innocuous paths of water
vapor from
random jets, there would have to have been at least one
case when
cumulous clouds formed, following such an onslaught.
But they never did.
The only reason any relief was seen in the past year in
the Northeast
was that chemtrails were not always laid immediately
prior to an
expected storm system. For a period, near the end of
winter 2002, and
into the beginning of spring 2002, chemtrails were not
laid, just before
storm fronts were expected.
When a storm was predicted, and chemtrails were not
produced in the
sky, the storm, generally, occurred.
Chemtrails have come to be watched for, reported and
examined by a
number of people. There have even been a number of web
sites
devoted to the subject. They include sites such as
www.carnicom.com,
www.chemtrailcentral.com and www.chemtrail.com.
In the last of the letters we sent, we outlined the
means whereby
chemtrails could be used to prevent rain and promote
drought.
Immediately following them, the chemtrails slacked off
in the Northeast,
rains picked up and the drought lessened significantly.
The connection is not easily deniable, if at all.
But a deliberate, planned nature of the phenomena is
eminently
apparent.
Certainly, the chemtrails utilized in the Northeast, for
about the last year,
follow a pattern apparently geared toward controlling
the mixing of air
layers.
Once they begin, they generally last for between four
and six hours.
They can occur twice in a day, but not often. They have
been known to
occur at night, also.
Not only do they evidently prevent cumulus clouds from
forming, these
chemtrails almost never occur on a day when there are
cumulus clouds
in the sky! Once the clouds characteristic of the kind
of chaotic mixing of
air masses, that produces rainstorms, are present, it
seems the purpose
of the chemtrails in the Northeast is obviated, so they
aren't attempted.
They generally do not occur, too, on very windy days,
but they occur
more during windy days than on days with cumulus clouds.
On windy
days, there, generally, isn't an air layer overlying
another, so the object
of chemtrails seems nonexistent, for the most part,
then.
They also seem to occur more often on warm days, than on
cold, or on
the warmest day in a span of days.
Chemtrails in other parts of the country may be for
other purposes, and
so may not be laid in the same patterns as those in the
Northeast -
those in the Pacific Northwest, for example, may be
intended to facilitate
the operation of the HAARP project, only a short ways
north, in Alaska -
but the serious drought conditions that afflicted the
country, this year,
seem to indicate that that was a purpose for many of
those observed in
the last few months.
There seems little plausible reason - if any - to doubt
that chemtrails are
deliberately produced, and not normal contrails.
Unsurprisingly, however, though, there are those who
seek to oppose
the assertions of those who contend that chemtrails are
abnormal, and
should be stopped. Apparently calculatedly, they term
themselves
"debunkers", to inculcate the perception that concern
over chemtrails is,
more than "misguided", an out-and-out hoax or fraud!
Indeed, a number
of them have used the term "hoax" in describing the
concern over
chemtrails - evidently suggesting that those who address
the issue are
actually pulling a prank on themselves - and even
accused some who
pursue the issue of doing it purely for personal profit.
As if someone choosing to try to make a profit off a
situation suddenly
makes that situation not exist.
Many have tried to hawk fake nostrums to eliminate the
symptoms of the
common cold, but that doesn't make the common cold
nonexistent.
Moreover, the "debunkers" regularly tout the software,
Flight Explorer, to
"identify" aircraft using routes where chemtrails form.
Not only do they,
apparently, wish to negate the existence of chemtrails
by simply calling
them contrails, they seem to want to convince the public
that they arise
from innocuous, harmless aircraft simply because
unidentified,
unverified information a piece of software displays on a
screen says it
does.
They try to "counsel" people against using the guidance
of their eyes
and their common sense in chemtrails; they, instead,
apparently, want
them to blindly obey "the official story".
Indeed, such faulty "reasoning", coupled with an
attitude of guile and
contempt, seems universally to characterize the
chemtrail debunkers.
As their own "explanation" of the phenomenon, they carp
the common
line that "under certain precise conditions of
temperature, pressure and
humidity, water vapor from jet exhaust will act as the
nuclei for
condensation of water in the air around the jet" The
preciseness of the
conditions, evidently, is intended to "explain" why all
jet trails are not the
elongated, long lasting sight that chemtrails are. But,
within at least the
last year, days with chemtrails constitute no less than
about a third of
the entire year! In many cases, we woke up to already
hazed over skies,
indicating that chemtrailing had been done before dawn,
or deformed,
but elongated, wispy clouds would be present in the sky,
indicating that
chemtrails had been laid elsewhere, and drifted to where
we were. As a
result, chemtrail days constitute no less than one
third, and, sometimes,
no less than 40%, of the days! Far from a "precise" set
of
circumstances.
If you add in the fact that, even after chemtrails may
have passed,
persistent haze can remain in the upper atmosphere,
turning the sky a
sickish white, or limiting the blueness of the natural
sky that is permitted
to show through, you have that no more than two or three
genuinely
blue sky days are permitted per month, anymore!
Chemtrail opponents
list this as one of their primary complaints with
chemtrails, as well, the
simple fact that they are being systematically robbed of
their blue sky.
Only a few decades ago, summer could guarantee weeks
worth of clear,
blue days. Now, to have just one is an event, at least
in the Northeast.
During the past summer, in Northern New Jersey, there
haven't been
more than five or six days, all told, that were bright
blue.
Nor is this an insignificant thing. Substituting bright
blue days with
heavily overcast, low-hanging skies, or persistent
mists, instead of the
kind of rain that will clear a sky of haze, produces a
listless even
despondent atmosphere. Over time, it can depress
individuals and even
sap them of initiative.
Experiments during the Seventies and Eighties, in fact,
suggested that
certain colors can promote certain types of responses.
Pink was found,
in some, to have a calming effect; brown and orange were
found to
stimulate appetite; and bright, light blue was found to
promote
imagination. Isolation cells in a number of jails, as a
result of this, were
painted pink, and the prevalence of browns, oranges and
reds in the
color schemes of fast food restaurants, during the
Eighties, is testament
to an evident unscrupulousness in their "marketing"
tactics! Withholding
clear skies from the populace seems, also, targeted at
controlling the
people's initiative and foresight.
Someone in government, it appears, doesn't want the
people to think for
themselves about what they see going on around them.
As reliable as the provability of tenuousness in the
debunkers,
"arguments" - and the eminent apparent danger in
chemtrailing - is the
debunkers, coming up with yet other attempts, at
discrediting those who
oppose chemtrails.
They couldn't deny the existence of days when huge
numbers of
chemtrails clutter the skies, because innumerable
photographs to the
contrary exist. If that wasn't the case, there is little
doubt they would try
to utterly and baldly deny their existence, altogether.
Initially, though,
they did, apparently, try the wheeze that "aircraft
exhaust can,t alter the
environment"! That has since been overturned by a number
of studies
indicating that, at the very least, the obscuring effect
of normal contrails
was enough to lower the earth's temperature by at least
1º Fahrenheit.
Equally as determinedly posited was the assertion that,
even if long,
environmentally-altering trails were being laid, it
wasn't deliberate.
Countering that is the revelation that numerous patents
and proposals
for using aircraft to affect weather have been filed, in
the past few years
alone! "Cloud seeding" is the least of the methods;
preventing global
warming was a major goal of many. Recently, too, even
the military
published a proposal to the effect of using weather
control in wartime as
a "force multiplier" against enemy troops. They termed
their proposal
"Owning the Weather by 2025"
In the face of these demonstrations of their evidently
patent falsehood in
opposing chemtrail followers, debunkers have taken up
the line that,
even though jet exhaust can affect the environment, and
even though
there are plans to utilize that to control the weather,
jets never release
anything other than normal exhaust into the air. In the
recent past,
however, CNN aired a report of military planes, among
other things,
releasing egg whites into the air to test radar methods
for, putatively,
tracking drug planes! It is questionable what aspect of
the situation the
debunkers will attempt to attack next.
And the debunkers have shown every determination to
oppose
suspicion about and examination of chemtrails as much as
would be
necessary to end questioning about them! They have taken
out whole
websites devoted to opposing chemtrail suspicions; they
have even
launched mirror sites of websites, to provide as much a
saturation of the
internet with their evident propaganda as possible! They
run the gamut
from an individual that calls themself "ChickieDeb", and
identifies
themself as "a housewife from Indiana" - ChickieDeb
being one of those
who launched three websites devoted to debunking - to an
organization
given the frankly questionable name "New Mexicans for
Science and
Reason - suggesting they see "science" and "reason" to
be two totally
separate and unrelated things.
Jay Reynolds, who seems proud to oppose the assertion
that chemtrails
are not normal contrails, and who also sponsored three
separate sites to
mirror his assertions, likewise states, on his website:
"the real state of
things that agrees with facts and reality." Meaning,
presumably, that, for
Mr. Reynolds, "facts" and "reality" are two totally
separate and unrelated
things. Before struggling to oppose investigation into
chemtrails, the
debunkers, it appears, should attempt developing a pose
that doesn't
come across as that of an incompetent poseur.
The nature of the debunkers, refutations, however, is
consistent with the
stock in trade of those without a leg to stand on. Pre-
eminent among
their "tools" is out-and-out derision. Jay Reynolds
titles his mirror sites
"Contrails or Trails-CON?" One of the devotees of
chemtrail
examination, William Thomas, he terms a "snakeoil
salesman".
On ChickieDeb's site,
cdebsjournal.topcities.com/Rhaltitude.htm, she
quotes Jay Reynolds as characterizing those who mobilize
the
movement to study chemtrails as "X-file wackos", and
ChickieDeb
openly agrees. Larry Lawson, whom ChickieDeb identifies
as a
"chemtrail perpetrator", is also referred to, by her, as
a "pipsqueak".
On the same page, incidentally, ChickieDeb condemns
"religious
fundamentalists", like she models Mr. Lawson to be, who
"think that God
is unable to take care of things by Himself". ChickieDeb
seems of the
opinion that people should just sit still and do
nothing, leave it all to God
- or whatever she tries to pass off as a deity - to do
things in the world.
She seems intent on coercing others into a willing
complacence and
disinterest in taking action in the world. The title of
another of her
websites devoted, apparently, to deceiving people about
the reality of
chemtrails is "DO YOU WANT TO STOP BEING AFRAID?"
Apparently she couldn,t be happier if everyone agreed
not to be
concerned about what is being done to their environment,
and just let
their rights and interests be run roughshod over! Even
an atheist would
accept that God would not have created man just to sit
and watch the
world; a purpose for creating man was so that man could
do things and
not leave it to God to "take care of things by Himself".
Having people
stand up for themselves, however, seems anathema to what
ChickieDeb
has in mind for them.
The debunkers seem never at a loss for disparaging names
to call those
who seem to threaten the government secret they work so
hard to hide,
or a boundless store of contempt for others.
The evident attempt to vilify suspicion of chemtrails is
also a
commonplace on debunkers, websites. ChickieDeb titles at
least one of
her mirror sites,
worldzone.net/international.checkiedeb, "CHEMTRAIL
HOAX - The Best Kept Secret In the World". On that site,
ChickieDeb
gives space to an article by Jay Reynolds, entitled "HOW
TO RUN A
CHEMTRAIL SCARE FOR FUN AND PROFIT". On one of the pages
on
one of ChickieDeb,s mirror sites,
www.worldzone.net/international/chickiedeb/cgi/col2.shtml, chemtrail
opponents are belittled for accusing debunkers of not
using logic, yet it
is said, of them, that "they refuse to recognize logic
and rationale".
"Rationale", it could be mentioned, for ChickieDeb's
information, means
the "excuse" or "justification" one uses to "explain"
their actions. It is not
an accompanying quality with logic. What ChickieDeb
seems to have
wanted to mention - yet apparently did not have the
depth of education
to supply - was "rationality".
On the page,
worldzone.net/international/chickiedeb//cgi/eyeswideshut.shtml,
ChickieDeb acknowledges that a term the debunkers use
for chemtrail
opponents is "Insane Cloud Posse".
Contempt is a large part of the debunkers, stock in
trade.
When not engaging in determined vituperation of
chemtrail opponents,
the debunkers attempt a "validation" of their
condemnation of chemtrail
concerns, usually through patently indulgence in
fraudulent double-talk
and specious "demonstrations".
The endless, arch and professorial expositions on
"temperature,
humidity and pressure" is only one aspect of this tack.
Even there,
though, the debunkers find it difficult to work within
the bounds of their
own presentations. On
www.weatherwise.org/qr/qry.chemtrail.html,
Thomas Schlatter, who passes himself off as a "NOAA
meteorologist",
contends that long lasting contrails can occur if the
temperature is less
than 70º and the relative humidity of air, compared to
ice is greater than
100%, that is, there is more than enough water vapor to
replace ice as
ice dissolves in the sunlight. The apparent purpose of
this seems to be
just to give the impression that long lasting contrails
are possible.
But it soon became evident that this was also describing
an eminently
unlikely - if not patently impossible - situation.
To, apparently, patch up this problem, ChickieDeb, on
the web page,
cdebsjournal.topcities.com/leadpage.htm, apparently
desperately and
recklessly blurts that "contrails can occur with zero
humidity if the
temperature is cold enough". Leaving aside the fact that
she
conveniently says only that "contrails" - not long-
lasting contrails - can
occur under those conditions - which no one denies - on
the web page
the link she provides leads to, someone named Dr.
Patrick Minnis
asserts only that meteorological instruments reading
humidity at high
altitudes have been, supposedly, consistently wrong, so
that,
presumably, high altitude humidities are larger than
expected.
Importantly, on the page, it also refers only to
"contrails" forming, not
long-lasting contrails. In what seems to constitute
little more than what is
termed "hand-waving", Dr. Minnis then goes on to state,
without
explanation or justification, that relative humidities
have to be greater
than 100% for "contrails to persist for very long", but,
"at those cold
temperatures, a small error in moisture measurement" can
lead to "a
large error" in the relative humidity. Supposedly, then,
not only are
relative humidities at high altitudes greater than
previously thought, they,
putatively, are even greater than they appear, because
readings might
have a small error that can translate into a massive
difference in the
actual humidity.
The "margin of error" the debunkers seem to want to lend
to reality, to
back their contentions, appears even larger and more
encompassing
that the actual situation.
Characteristic of other forms that the pedagogic
patronizing of the
debunkers can take is in the typically flippantly
entitled entry "fun With
Math", on web page
www.chemtrailcentral.com/ubb/Forum9/HTML/000033.html.
There, a "correspondent", who takes the name BEE, puts
up the pose of
"proving" that "there is simply no way physically for
anything sprayed at
the height at which contrails (or supposed chemtrails)
are observed to
reach any kind of concentration on the ground which
would have any
effect on people whatsoever".
He begins by considering a "worst case scenario" of a
jet hovering
overhead, at various heights, dumping different amounts
of material,
with wind going at various speeds. Among other things,
though, he
assumes a "source rate" for the spraying of "63 billion
micrograms/second". This works out to 63,000
grams/second, or 140
lbs./second. That's almost 8 tons per minute! If BEE is
willing to be so
unreliable in even this early part of the "explanation",
there is no reason
to trust him in what he says later.
His conclusions are no less questionable. Proceeding
from a supposed
height, for the jet, of from 2 to 2000 meters above the
ground, he reels
off supposed "maximum concentrations" for the sprayed
substance. He
goes from 19.3 billion micrograms/cubic meter to .75
micrograms/cubic
meter. The highest value is related to a situation for
the plane 2 meters
in the air, the lowest value, for one 2000 meters high.
He evidently
wants to "dramatically demonstrate" that the results
from a "realistic"
situation are very, very low.
An eminent problem with that, however, is that, not only
does BEE look
at varying heights for the jet, for each jet, there is
also a different
distance downwind looked at. The jet 2 meters in the air
has a
"maximum concentration" 60 meters downwind quoted, a jet
100 meters
high has a value at 15,000 meter downwind given, and for
the jet at
2000 meters, the concentration at 3.5 billion meters, or
2.2 million miles,
downwind! It is unlikely, if not completely impossible,
that material would
drift for 2.2 million miles over the earth, before
coming to rest.
What is more, for all the insistence, by BEE, that winds
would dissipate
chemtrail material, that has never been observed! They
spread and
combine with other chemtrails, but they have never been
seen to be
blown away by winds! In fact, it is their tendency to
stay in one place,
unchanged, except for spreading, for hours on end, which
was one thing
which brought them to the public,s attention.
If the purpose of the chemtrails was to stay in one
place and, at least,
physically affect the environment, such as causing a
drought, or even
form clouds and then let rainwater wash it down to the
soil,
contaminating people that way, then they are,
apparently, doing exactly
what was desired of them.
How easy it is for the chemtrail defenders - they shape
up as little more
than that! - to "exonerate" chemtrails of things no one
said they were
doing.
For that matter, too, all the supposedly legitimate
physical calculations
BEE presumably performed does not prove that there
aren't substances
which can affect, or even harm, people at concentrations
of only about 1
microgram/cubic meter! Allergens work at very small
concentrations,
pathogens can be dangerous at those low levels, and
various poisonous
gases can be potent at even lower concentrations!
Withholding
important information can be as crucial as
misrepresenting information,
in promoting a fraudulent proposal! Add the fact that,
on a day of regular
chemtrailing, as many as 30 or more trails can be left
in any affected
area of sky, and there is a likelihood that huge amounts
of dangerous
material will be released.
And where displays of contempt and presumed exercises in
sophistry do
not succeed, the debunkers appear to rely on out and out
fraud! A
favored technique, for example, is saying that
chemtrails are nothing
more than normal contrails, then going through elaborate
proofs that
contrails are not unusual or dangerous and, because
contrails are not
unusual or dangerous - which, in truth, has not been
proved! - then,
what chemtrail observers complain about can,t be unusual
or
dangerous! Just about every chemtrail debunker site has
at least one
page devoted to "examining" and "explaining" contrails,
then diffidently
insisting that that,s all that chemtrails are - using
even less proof than
the chemtrail opposers use for their statements! - and
"concluding" that,
therefore, chemtrails do not exist, and chemtrail
opposers are just
chasing falsities.
The facts of chemtrails, however, do not bear out
debunkers,
insistences.
Among other things, the references to chemtrails began
only around
1997. There are no references to unusual, persistent
cloud trails before
that date. Contrails didn't suddenly start to become
long-lived under
certain circumstances only after 1997. And it unlikely
that people will
have suddenly started to become aware of something as
obvious, and
apparently pernicious, as vapor trails that persist for
hours, then spread
and coalesce into sun blocking cloud decks only in 1997.
The very fact
that no complaints of long, spreading contrails before
1997 is sufficient
to establish that chemtrails must be real, and not
normal contrails.
Tellingly, though, and apparently not coincidental at
all, is the fact that,
in October 1997, the system of reporting visibility
date, from the National
Climatic Data Center, was abruptly reduced from the then
standard
maximum of 40 miles, to only 10 miles. To reduce
visibility information
that way only endangers such things as aerial
navigation! To do so
peremptorily, in that manner, was utterly incompatible
with any
consideration of protecting the welfare of citizens.
What it does seem geared for, however - what seems more
important
than the interests of the public! - is keeping the
government from having
to acknowledge that there was something out there that
long range data
would need them to report! Something, too, that seems
likely to be
nothing less than a hindrance to long-range visibility,
as well.
There was something out there that the government didn't
want the
people to know about.
But the indications that chemtrails are real go beyond
even that.
Debunkers, for example, could try to "argue" that, on
days when
chemtrails don,t appear, it,s because the weather
conditions at the
planes, height don,t permit them. The planes are there,
they would
demand, but the peculiar conditions that turned innocent
contrails into
extended lines in the sky simply weren't present. But,
even at the height
at which chemtrails are apparently laid, planes can be
seen and heard
slightly. Because they take a long time passing through
the sky, that
high up, they form a low rumble that can persist for
many minutes.
On the days when chemtrails do not appear, neither the
bright specks
that the planes appear as, nor the low rumble are heard.
More than that,
not even normal contrails - which should form under just
about any
condition! - are not present. When chemtrails do not
form high in the
sky, it is because the planes that form them are not up
there. The
forming of chemtrails, then, is related more to the
presence of special
planes high up that particular day, and not, evidently,
certain conditions
affecting planes that are, putatively, present every
day.
A phenomenon that chemtrail followers also point to to
indicate the
suspicious nature of the trails is what is termed the
"on and off switch".
Often, when chemtrails appear overhead, there will be a
space in the
trail, where what seems to be aerial spraying was turned
off, for a time,
then turned back on.
This does not happen, ever, for conventional contrails.
Planes forming
the short tails of contrail fog behind them do not go
through periods
when the cloud will disappear; the clouds themselves,
even though they
last for a short time, do not show spaces in them.
Debunkers,
unsurprisingly, dismiss these claims, insisting that
there is nothing in the
breaks in chemtrails that indicate anything out of what
they term the
usual.
Tellingly, though, actual addresses of the issue of the
"on off switch" are
rare on debunker websites. In fact, only one site,
www22.brinkster.com/Seawana/Conspiracies/Chemtrails.asp,
which
boasts the title, "The Way of the Dodo", actually
devotes any real space
to an attempted "explanation" of chemtrail breaks.
In characteristically contemptuous and insulting
fashion, the section
begins, "Ah yes. These rare photos are a favorite among
the believers."
The originator of the site, who identifies himself as
Skip Ernst, describes
"the neanderthals running" spray operations as having
"mistakenly
turned off the spray for a few moments".
"Can you believe the government has hired a bunch of
bumbling idiots to
perform their top secrets operations?", Mr. Ernst adds,
mockingly.
He posits that the breaks are caused by jets having
"simply passed
through a pocket of air where contrails" - carefully, he
doesn,t refer to
them as "chemtrails"! - "will not form. The air could be
too warm or too
dry to form the ice crystals which make a contrail
visible."
It is eminently unlikely, if not patently impossible,
that air that high up
would be so warm, to begin with. The jets that form
chemtrails typically
fly at at least three miles high. Even if it was too
warm, a trail, of sorts, of
water vapor would be likely, following the jet. And,
even if the air were
very dry, a trace of the ice crystals from the jet
engines, that supposedly
form the "seed" for the chemtrail, should be visible,
and it is not.
And that is leaving aside, entirely, the fact that there
is little reason to
believe that an isolated, tiny, patch of air could be so
radically different
from the overwhelming mass of air around it! If an area
of warm or dry
air were to intrude, it is likely that it would be no
time before the rest of
the air around it would bring it into equilibrium.
More than that, though, Mr. Ernst, will have to explain
how it is possible
for chemtrails with breaks, supposedly caused by
differing air masses, to
occur in close proximity to chemtrails with no breaks!
"I'll leave it at that and let you be the judge", he
concludes archly.
If he's telling the absolute, incontrovertible truth,
which he pretends to
be, then he would be able to call it that! He wouldn't
have to leave it to
the reader to "be the judge".
That, in itself, all but brands the material on the
Seawana site utterly
untrustworthy.
Mr. Ernst also takes issue with, among other things, the
observation that
"most chemtrails seem to be created at altitudes above
commercial
flights", which can be taken to be an indication that
chemtrails are not
normal contrails, but the result of government flights.
"That is because the probability of a contrail being
produced at a higher
altitude is much greater", he retorts.
"Next please", he adds, smugly, evidently content that
he has put any
question of the formation of chemtrails to rest, firmly.
But, if the chemtrails are being produced at altitudes
higher than
commercial jets use, as he, himself, seems willing to
accede, what is
leaving them? It is apparent, then, that it is only
government planes
laying the trails, and that is far from something that
discounts the
likelihood of their being a government operation'
Moreover, how could Flight Explorer, which seems to
record only
commercial flights, attest to the flight plans of those
jets causing the
chemtrails?
Among the site's other demonstrations of the "character"
of its
developer, are a "boss button" - a switch which you
click so that, if
you're looking at the site instead of doing work, at the
office, you can call
up a realistic looking spreadsheet screen, to con your
boss into thinking
you're not gold-bricking.
"Surf freely with the security that comes from the
knowledge that your
boss remains clueless about your daily internet
practices!", Mr. Ernst
proclaims. Apparently, honesty and honor are alien
concepts to him. But,
then, in the "encyclopedia" section of the site, he
proclaims he'll do just
about anything for a bribe. Also in evidence are Java
language banners
in which Mr. Ernst regularly vents his bile at any of a
number of common
"pop-up" advertisements to be seen on many sites.
One such banner takes aim at "the f***ing X-Cam", the
miniature camera
you can hook up to your computer to see what's happening
somewhere
else. The site also includes a pretentious
"encyclopedia" of "conspiracy
theories", and a "news" page, both riddled with
misspellings, and full
references to those who follow those theories as
"dopes", "morons" and
"idiots"; and a page devoted to something called
"Drunken Stumble" a
game "that allows you to get rip roaring drunk - but
with a purpose."
Mr. Ernst seems incapable of anything but viciousness,
disingenuousness and antipathy for everything that
exists.
Nor, indeed, is it only apparently "disinterested
individuals" who have
attempted to quell investigation into chemtrails.
Branches of the
government have taken it upon themselves to denounce the
consideration that chemtrails were anything but ordinary
contrails, and
even gone so far as to officially term it a "hoax."
The United States Air Force web page on the subject,
www.af.mil/environment/contrails_chemtrail.shtml, for
example, is
entitled "The Chemtrail Hoax"
While it may be a purview of individuals to term
something a "hoax" at
will, a branch of the government is considered more
bound by the law in
its actions, so that, for them to term something a
"hoax" is automatically
to have it characterized according to the legal
definition of the term.
More than that, it indicates that sufficient examination
has been carried
out to back that characterization. Legally, a "hoax" is
far more than just
some kind of prank, gag or practical joke; it is a
willful and malicious act
of mayhem, usually for the aggrandizement of the
"perpetrator".
By titling their page that way, the Air Force, then,
officially accuses all
the honest, straightforward citizens genuinely concerned
about at least
the affront of their skies being clouded over, and
sunlight all but
banished from their lives, as malingerers and frauds.
A common tactic of the guilty is to cast the first stone
and blame the
innocent, at least to try to buy enough time to shore up
their defenses
against justice.
As with all other "debunkers", the Air Force proceeds to
declare that
contrails can be caused to remain for very long periods,
based on
temperature and humidity. Like the other debunkers, they
never once
assert that the conditions that would allow contrails to
persist - if at all -
are conditions that are likely to, or even possibly can,
occur on the
earth, at the present! Unlike the other "debunkers", the
Air Force, on
their site, don,t include barometric pressure in the
"explanation", an
eminently glaring omission, utterly calling everything
they say into
question! Also unlike the other "debunkers", the Air
Force does claim
that "winds" can affect the persistence of contrails.
Too, and indicative of the fact that they may engage in
the eminently
questionable act of taking it on themselves to term
suspicion of
chemtrails a "hoax", but they are still bound by
considerations of justice
and fairness, the Air Force, on their site, declare that
contrails can be
caused to last long periods of time because of "aircraft
exhaust
characteristics".
The nebulous reference is, apparently, meant to downplay
the matter,
but, technically, "aircraft exhaust characteristics"
includes what is being
pumped out.
And it is precisely the contention of chemtrail
opponents that high flying
military jets are pumping unorthodox and irregular
materials into the air.
In phraseology evidently intended to gull the unwitting
into believing that
normal characteristics of jet exhausts can, under the
right
circumstances, be made to last long periods of time, the
Air Force, in
actuality, seems to admit that unorthodox materials in
their exhaust are
what is forming chemtrails.
They fill out their "disproof" of the existence of
chemtrails with a list of
links to "debunker" web sites that no longer exist, and
one link to a site
in Denmark that "demonstrates" the non-existence of
chemtrails by
showing pictures of chemtrails and calling them
contrails! It is instructive
that this practice of "proving" something doesn't exist
by simply calling it
something else is taking place on a site operated by the
Neils Böhr
Institute.
If that is the level of "intellectual discourse"
involved in "debunking"
chemtrails, it is only further testimony to the truth of
their existence.
If that is the level of honesty involved in the movement
against chemtrail
opponents, it strengthens the evidence that they are,
indeed, an act of
craven contempt for the people.
But contempt seems a given, both in the perpetrating of
chemtrails, and
in the apparent attempted cover-up.
Indeed, it is apparently inherent, how spiteful and
disdainful the sites
devoted to debunking conspiracy theories regularly, are
to those who
acknowledge their existence.
If conspiracy theories really were untrue, those who
subscribed to them
would be deluding themselves. They would be genuinely
wasting their
time. That is a tragedy, and would be approached as a
tragedy, by
those with genuine honor and the kind of concern and
regard for others
that would be consistent with telling them the truth.
The arrogance and
disregard to be seen among the conspiracy theory
debunkers is that to
be found in those incapable of the truth, or of any
display of honor or
decency. Their very malignance proclaims their
assertions utterly
untrustworthy and specious.
There is every reason to believe, indeed, that those who
call themselves
debunkers are, in fact, quisling shills for government,
trying to keep the
truth from the people. They willingly admit to being
considered that by
many conspiracy theory examiners, and just as quickly -
and without
proof - dismiss the accusation, but it seems very near
the truth, if not the
truth itself.
And this demonstrated malevolence of character, more so
than much
else, pronounces conspiracy theories far from
unreliable; indeed,
anything but unproved, or disproved.
And that includes chemtrails.
The evidence is that, not only are chemtrails real,
there seems to be a
dedicated movement to try to dissuade those who
acknowledge the
existence of chemtrails from following up on the
subject.
In recent months, since our own sending in several
letters on the
subject, chemtrails in New Jersey have begun to take on
a new form.
Instead of stretching from one horizon to the other,
chemtrails laid here
have begun to take the form, only, of lines across part
of the sky.
It seems intended to give the impression that chemtrails
do not really
exist, since these go only partway across the sky. But
this has only
begun recently, so it cannot be a demonstration of
something which
existed before. But it seems related to the fact that we
recently began
sending letters to the editor from here on this subject.
In the end, the people must take it on themselves to see
that their rights
and interests are respected by government. They must
involve
themselves, deeply and determinedly, in government. It
is up to them to
see that it is their welfare that motivates government.
