Actually Bob, We both know that what was written was far from irrelevant in light of your heavily "nuanced" statement that those who tend to think of the possible (or at least the "chemtrail" possibility) are essentially paranoid.
What I pointed out was the fact that on numerous occassions what was previously deemed to be unthinkable has been revealed to be actual fact, replete with wanton collusion, fraud and wreckless disregard for human life. And even when found out, the rationale is what? That those who object aren't looking at the "bigger picture?" Enter Josef Mengele..., all for the greater good, right? So one would think that knowing what you know and in light of the historical record of deviant human behaviors, you might be a little less half-cocked and not so flip with your dismissals. Something as simple as aerial dispersal of unknown materials upon an unaware public is completely within the realm of reason, and in fact, it's already been accomplished on a number of occassions. Google search "Green Run" and then follow up on the numerous other intentional releases for "research." And as you well know, absence of proof is not proof of absence, as all the examples provided in my post unerrantly point out. But you'd rather declare the thoughts of those who perceive such as being paranoid. This game of "plausible denial," or just flat out denial, that you play is devious, destructive, distracting and fraudulently manipulative, no matter whether it is intentional or not. And we both can be pretty sure that it's not exactly unintentional. As for > If I use your logic, I have to construe that you accept every claim > regardless of source, or physical possibility, rational or not, as valid. Not at all McDuff. You don't have to construe any such thing. In fact, if you do, you're playing a little fast and loose with the rules of logic, much less how I would and do apply them. To deny, disregard and vaguely denegrate as flippantly as you do is foolhardy, deceptive, distracting and even illogical, especially in light of what has transpired in nearly inumerable instances and is no doubt occurring somewhere, in some venue or another, several times over as this is being typed. The same can also be said about those who openly accept every claim as being irrefutable fact. While you may take the route of glib dismissal, I'd rather keep one eye open and half a wit aware should ever a confirming slip of proof (paper trail or other) be stumbled across, as all things are possible, plausible, and all too often probable when dealing with the aberrance of the human mind.
