This is from August, but it got my attention:

Chemtrails Are Over Las Vegas





Government officials deny that anything unusual is taking place, yet increasing numbers of concerned observers are seeing 727-like aircraft painted "all-white with a black stripe up the middle of fuselage" laying long and often cries-crossing chemtrail patterns over Southern Nevada and elsewhere. None of the planes carry identifying markings.


I witnessed a large number of apparent jet contrails while in St. Louis several weeks ago. The sky looked something like a Piet Mondrian painting. I spent a day gawking, unsure if the spectacle was normal for the area or if the trails were anomalous and unrelated to aircraft propulsion. As always, the primary hurdle for "chemtrail" spotters is overcoming basic ignorance of what actual contrails look like.

Personally, I think a bit of healthy paranoia is called for. I think civilians should organize formal "counts" of contrail/chemtrail phenomena and share their findings in an agenda-free context. While it wouldn't be particularly surprising to find we're the unwitting recipients of some black-ops chemical warfare experiment (or the beneficiaries of a secret attempt to cool the atmosphere), I think it would be at least as empowering to discover that the nefarious "chemtrails" are a mythological artifact.

Please tell me you are joking..... if you honestly believe that we are being "sprayed", then you are in need of some serious psychiatric help!

Why the polarized response? All I proposed was that perhaps we should put this notion to rest using empirical observation.

If this is crazy, then I pity the sane.

Chem trails do seem a little over the top (not to mention unpredictable) for coating us with whatever for whatever reason. Why not just dose our drinking water? A little prosaic perhaps, but a damn sight more effective.

>>"Why not just dose our drinking water?"<<

Seems as if anything in the air is going to eventually end up in the water, so perhaps in theory this might be one way to dose our drinking water... I don't put much credence to the evil chemtrails idea, however like Mac says gathering data is never a bad idea.

Who says the alleged spraying is about *us*, per se? Maybe the goal is to reach the environment in ways that tainting the water supply can't.

Objective evidence is available for those who are interested. Most interesting are the multiple chemtrail hypotheses which postulate several different government operations involving spraying. Does no one recall the so-called spider webs from the sky in Oregon a few years ago that were taken to labs and analyzed to have barium and other heavy metals? People pulled thiws crap off trees and cars. Clearly the disconnect here is like 9/11 ordinary people prefer not to accept it as possible that the State hath its reasons and none dare call it treason.

anyone with common sense can see they aren't normal contrails. they begin and end in certain areas, as if the spray is being turned off and on. or maybe they just floored the gas pedal and a contrail just occured, or maybe the air pressure was just right in the same spot to cause a contrail to be visible.

non-believers just don't take the time to read and watch the damn sky. it takes more than one day or 1 hour.

water is being treated with flouride, just like the nazis did. google that my friends before dismissing it out of fear.

if we all dismissed everything that seemed impossible, we already would be under World rule.
