Strange days - strange skies

[geetrue]

I was just surfing the web looking for something else when I found this one:

http://www.netscape.com/viewstory/20...D14&frame=true

The topic strange days-strange skys got to me, but when I clicked on it nothing happened ... I only have dial up however.

So I let it do it's thing to see what it was all about and came back five minutes later and wham, strange pictures after strange pictures were on my screen and the story is like a sci-fic movie. It's one of the strangest things I have heard of (lately) and it's been going on for a couple of years.

Is this a hoax? Is this for real? Is this really happening?

This is called Chemtrails in case you have already heard of it.

I don't worry about too many things ... but if this is real there is no where to hide.

Give it a chance to down-load ...

It's a conspiracy website. Nothing more, nothing less.

Thank you Yahoshua ... I'm starting to see it that way too. Now that I have taken a little longer to view it.

At first I didn't see anyone trying to make money off of it, then I saw an ad in the middle for mask and I realized it might be a paranoid problem.

I don't need any more paranormal events in my life I got enough problems with the UFO's in this area ... Just kidding

Still that sure is a lot of strange pictures he has amassed.

I stopped when it came to "the earth has started to glow" picture showing a simple high-contrast shot of daytime clouds

You know, I went to the sea once and there were these big wavy things following ships and they were called "chemwakes". And then there was dead dolphins and my dog choked. On mutant weed pollen.

The sky is falling! Run to the hills!

I can remember this stuff since I was a kid.

About half of the pictures they show are Airplane Contrails, also known as Condensation Trails (which is simply the exhaust of the big jet airliners' engines and the wingtip vorticies). These can extend (depending on the conditions in which they are in) from a few miles to across an entire sky (eg. one-hundred miles long). The whole "chemtrail" theory is leaving out one very big piece of evidence: When it's cold enough, the contrails become cirrus clouds (source)

Contrails:






Cirrus clouds:

They also need to know that sometimes, the big airliners dump fuel when they don't need it (a big example was over Alaska during the 1970's; KC-135 tankers would dump the rest of their gas when before they landed so they could land within the structural weight limits).


Also, consider these statments from the "chemtrail" theory on wikipedia:

Depending on what the alleged purpose of the chemtrail spraying would be, spray released above 30,000 feet is likely to be highly unpredictably dispersed due to high-altitude winds.

How do aircraft accused of depositing "chemtrails" manage to pass inspection without the deception being discovered?

Assuming drugging the population is the purpose, the people behind the conspiracy would breathe the same air the population breathes, so any harm inflicted on the population would also be inflicted on those in charge of the conspiracy, unless they were made immune through vaccination.

Official and governmental bodies have consistently denied the existence of such spraying

In addition, condensation trails behind aircraft have displayed characteristics attributed to "chemtrails" since the 1930s development of high-altitude planes. As these vapor trails are created in the exhausts from engines, they contain not only hot gases but also microscopic droplets of oil and every other component of the fuel, including traces of lead (in fuel used by piston engines), which can break light into various colors. This phenomenon is observed in sundogs, which have been seen throughout recorded history.

As Yahoshua cleverly pointed out:

Although some of the photos posted were quite pretty with all the different hues of color and such.

[JSLTIGER]

Agreed.

I would also add that what actually happens is the moisture in the colder air condenses on the hot air coming from the exhaust. It's the exact same phenomenon you see forming on a cold glass on a hot day...or are they putting chemicals in our ice cubes?
