Persistent Contrails
The authors of the quoted news report were quite mis-informed about the subject they were reporting on. The idea of airline captains running out on the tarmac and strapping on the gas canisters prior to rollback is quite amusing but entirely misleading.
Dave's blue water injection model certainly explains a persistent contrail to some degree, however it does not address the presence of aluminum oxides and barium salts found in samples gathered in high traffic areas.
Persistent contrails have been researched and well documented for many years now. The results of hundreds of studies have been published and are readily available for anyone seriously interested in understanding this phenomenon. One such study found 1500 times the allowable safe level of aluminum oxides (at a micron level only achievable in the laboratory) in the snow pack on Mt. Shasta in Northern California. These samples were taken at an elevation of almost 14,000 ft. The only way for this material to get into the snow pack was to come from the sky.
The US Government acknowledges that they have been practicing "Geoengineering" in the atmosphere for years to slow the effects of "Global Warming". This is done without consent of the general population or local governments in the fallout path of the ongoing ops.
I live at 7,000 ft. 90 NM due west of the Tonopah beacon in Northern California. I know the low and high altitude jetways in my area intimately. The typical traffic vectors off the beacon to any number of high traffic waypoints to the west. I have documented the "chemtrail" activitiy in my area in depth since 1999. I can say as a certainty that there is an un-explainable phenomenon occuring in the grid like contrailing and the atmospheric changes following these patterns. The grid contrails are not consistent with the wind patterns at those altitudes. Downwind drift does not account for the mathematical geometry in the patterns. I have also personally witnessed a formation of four large aircraft, approx 20-25,000 ft. approx airspeed 250 knots, producing a group of parallel contrails that persisted for over one hour before they dispersed into a whitish haze. These aircraft maintained this formation South to North direction from horizon to horizon.
I have ammassed a very large archive of material on this subject (and many others) including numerous patents for delivery systems, including internal engine mods to accomodate the new generation fuels that apparently contribute to the persistent contrail phehomenon.
One very simple way to verify recent changes in the ambient atmosphere is to go out on a day when cumulus clouds are present in your area. As the clouds pass across the sun, you often will see a rainbow tinge at the edges of the clouds in the area around the sun. Polarized sun glasses work very well for this. Take a close look...these colors are not in the spectrum of light refracted through water vapor. The colors are closer to those seen in an oil slick on water. The only rational explanation is that there is a significant amount of ambient polutant in the atmosphere contributing to this effect.
I can assure everyone on this forum that I am completely sane, quite rational and only respond to verifiable data...no tin hats.
All of my information has been thoroughly verified, vetted and is readily available in the public domain.
