Aerosolized Powder Contrails?

During the weekend of Jan. 25th-27th the greater S.F. Bay Area had its heaviest rainfall in about two years. Where I am in Santa Cruz, on Monterey Bay, the climate remained wet and cloudy for over a week, clearing up beautifully by Wed., Feb. 6th. On that morning, when I left the house, a single, bright-white contrail lay prominently across the clear, blue sky overhead. As I drove the fifteen minutes or so down into Santa Cruz, I noticed more straight, white contrails that were spreading out in wispy cloud formations, as well as the planes that were laying fresh trails. In fact, as I peered around I could see evidence of previous contrails where fresh ones were being laid, along the exact same headings and roughly the same altitude.

Then I worked for several hours, pointing out the ever-increasing acivity to a couple other construction workers, and at any given moment we could stop and see at least two planes making passes over the bay; I do not exaggerate when I say we sometimes saw three and FOUR planes at a time, all leaving similar white contrails that did not dissipate, but formed a thick, white haze high over the Monterey Bay Area. By 1:30pm, after lunch, I was blown away by the blatantly obvious campaign of aerial bombardment – the only way I can describe this activity – NOT natural cloud formations, NOT smog, NOT fog, and NOT smoke from wood-burning or fires. By the end of what began as a perfectly clear day, a sky thick with haze and wispy cloud formations was STILL being penetrated by planes leaving fresh, “pencil-thin” powder contrails that did not dissipate, merely spread. What’s more, this was not an isolated instance – I can walk outside and find visual evidence of this type of activity just about every single day (excepting predominantly overcast conditions) because I’ve been watching it for so long. Disconcerting, to say the least, particularly considering the context of this activity and the questions that arise from it:

#1) Is this really what it appears to be? …because it appears to be an active and prolonged campaign of what I’ve come to know as “aerosolized powder contrails;” by prolonged I mean not only days or months, but YEARS, and “aerosolized powder contrails” is a term I’ve adopted after viewing 1) a U.S. Naval patent for “Powder Contrail Generation” at: http://www.freepatentsonline.com/3899144.html and 2) a very informative, albeit tedious, documentary called “Aerosol Crimes:” Aerosol Crimes 1st Edition + Chemtrails (videos)

There is no shortage of reports on this aerial phenomenon, they begin in 1997 and continue to this day (as I am doing). A history of articles on the subject, a “bibliography” of sorts, can be found at http://educate-yourself.org/ct/#intro. A Google search of [chemtrails] yields 937,000 hits; [powder contrails] yields 22,800 hits, most of which probably refer to the 1975 U.S. Navy patent referenced above; a GoogleVideo search of [chemtrails] yields 4,387 hits ranging from 1 minute to nearly two hours; the evidence is overwhelming. When I undertook to determine the range of chemtrail reportings world-wide, I found that every single country on the globe (I physically used a globe) has chemtrail sightings/reports, even the Marshall Islands out in the middle of the Pacific! Try it yourself: just Google [chemtrails (any country )] and you will find an average of 2,000-3,000 hits.

#2) How is this ACTUALLY affecting our health? I don’t mean possibly or potentially, I mean “HOW is this ‘particulate haze’ affecting us NOW.” Is it true that respitory ailments, headaches, sore throats, flu symptoms and skin irritations follow heavy activity? A Google search of [chemtrails illness] yields 28,100 hits, the following is an excerpt from one site: “More and more symptoms reported after repeated chemtrails exposure resemble the mycoplasma-induced disorders associated with Gulf War Illness – including aching joints, extreme fatigue and short-term memory loss.” http://netowne.com/environmental/contrails/willthomas/chemtrails4.htm

Here’s an excerpt from, and link to, another site: “chemtrail sightings have long been associated with community-wide illnesses reported in the areas of the sprayings. Thomas himself was involved in a case in Espanola, Ontario, in the spring of 1998. Residents there had been complaining of “severe headaches, chronic joint pain, dizziness, sudden extreme fatigue, acute asthma attacks and feverless ‘flu-like’ symptoms over a 50-square-mile area [which] coincided with what they termed ‘months of spraying’ by photo-identified US Air Force tanker planes.” An expert witness in the case, former Ontarion Provincial Police Officer Ted Simola, described the “lingering Xs and numerous white trails, some of which ‘just ended’ as if they had been shut off but remained in the sky,” observations consistent with other chemtrail sightings.http://www.worldaffairsbrief.com/keytopics/Chemtrails.shtml

#3) How could this POTENTIALLY affect our health? In order to determine its potential effects, we have to know what it IS. The patent info above tells us that it’s probably aluminum oxide and a propellant at the very least, while another report, authored by General Electric in Aug. of 1977 tells us “Laboratory tests of the Titanium/Boron/Barium system produced a maximum yield of Barium vapor in the amount of 41.2% of the total mixture chemical weight.” http://stinet.dtic.mil/oai/oai?verb=getRecord&metadataPrefix=html&identifier=ADA044538

Indeed, we’ll find that a “series of qualitative chemical tests and deductions now confirm without doubt the presence of significant amounts of barium within atmospheric samples.” This quote is taken from Clifford Carnicom’s current,”encyclopedic” web-site “AEROSOL OPERATION CRIMES & COVER-UP:” http://www.carnicom.com/contrails.htm The claim is supported by other sources, as well, including KSLA NEWS 12 in Shreveport, LA: “CHEMTRAILS: Is U.S. Gov’t. Secretly Testing Americans ‘Again’?” http://www.ksla.com/Global/story.asp?s=7339345

Apparently “again” means it has happened before – the law has since been repealed: U.S. CODE, TITLE 50 – WAR AND NATIONAL DEFENSE, CHAPTER 32 – CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL WARFARE PROGRAM, SECTION 1520: “The use of human subjects will be allowed for the testing of chemical and biological agents by the U.S. Department of Defense, accounting to Congressional committees with respect to the experiments and studies.” [also referred to as PUBLIC LAW 95-79] The question of the validity of this info. in-and-of-itself should serve as the impetus to look further into the available resources, and where we suffer a lack of information, hypothetical reasoning dictates that we form postulates in order to compare them to our first-hand experience. For example, there’s some speculation that “Morgellon’s Disease” is in some way associated with the “chemtrail” phenomenon. If we allow ourselves to speculate, we might ask “What is Morgellon’s Disease and are there any connections between the two?” The following is an article from The San Jose Mercury printed in Jan. 2008: http://www.mercurynews.com/healthandscience/ci_7995426 stating that “patients also complain of fatigue, joint pain, hair loss, vision problems and difficulty in thinking clearly.” Would heavy metal toxicity do these things? Is there a connection? Apparently the S.F. Bay Area has the highest occurrence of Morgellon’s AND a relentless campaign of aerial aerosol bombardment (the latter I can attest).

I’d have to suggest that the most disturbing potential of this technology lies in the fact that it is classed as an “exotic weapons system” in this bill introduced to Congress:
“H.R. 2977 Space Preservation Act of 2001 introduced October 2, 2001, 107th Congress, 1st Session. The bill was referred to committee and no further action ensued.”
[source: http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Space_Preservation_Act ]

#4) Where does this inquiry lead us? It begins with government documents like the U.S. Naval patent referenced above, or this timeline of patent technology called “Patently Obvious; A Partial History of Aerosol and Weather Related Technologies” spanning from 1917-2003: http://www.seektress.com/PATLIST.HTM It continues through “a massive research study from 1992 and sponsored by the National Academy of Sciences, National Academy of Engineering, and Institute of Medicine. This study was approved and funded by congress and is the textbook on greenhouse gases, global warming, policy decisions, and mitigation. Several of the suggestions for mitigation are under “Sunlight Screening” and include “Low Stratospheric Dust” (”Use aircraft to maintain a cloud of dust in the low stratosphere to reflect sunlight“), “Low Stratospheric Soot“, and “Cloud Stimulation“: http://www.chemtrails911.com/supporting_evidence.htm

We find, furthermore, that “At least part of the aerosol project has been dubbed Operation Cloverleaf,7 probably due to its multi-faceted operations, which include: weather modification, military communications, space weapons development, ozone and global warming research plus biological weaponry and detection testing.” http://globalresearch.ca/articles/WOR406A.html

This is where we find that we have opened a serious “can of worms;” [operation cloverleaf] yields 85,600 hits on Google and introduces us to a whole new array of ideas and research including:

“Points to Ponder: The Shield Project.”
http://www.holmestead.ca/chemtrails/shieldproject.html

“Project HAARP: The Military’s Plan to Alter the Ionosphere,”
http://www.chemtrails911.com/docs/-%202006_june-december/The%20Unholy%20HAARP%20Doomsday%20Array.htm

http://www.ecologynews.com/cuenews31.html

“The Brave New World of Scalar Electromagnetics,”
http://www.prahlad.org/pub/bearden/scalar_wars.htm

…and more, more, more…

In conclusion: I don’t even know how to handle this “ball,” let alone run with it; there are suddenly vast expanses of technology and mind-boggling forces at play, here, which would require a great deal more time than I can devote (”word” to all the investigative journalists out there!) I am prepared to have this work denigrated, marginalized and/or ignored, but the fact remains that it has arisen, for me, out of a need-to-know basis. My hope is that it will open the eyes of people everywhere who are concerned about health, environment, ever-increasing gov’t secrecy, and public awareness in general.

Let me finish with an experiment – set up two sources of light in your home, one incandescent and one fluorescent. During daylight hours, or even as the day progresses, open all the blinds or curtains and compare the daylight to each of the two sources of light. Is your “ordinary daylight” coming to resemble the blue/white fluorescence more than the yellow/white incandescent? Or is it just hazy? I say that only today I picked out the faintest impression of blue/white streaks in the sky, a vaguely perceptible haze of straight white lines, and I’m pretty certain I’ve been hearing that incandescent bulbs are soon to be “out of production” in favor of the more expensive, incredibly more toxic fluorescent bulbs. Weird.

  1. Thanks, inthefront, I concur. Thanks also for the blessing and the link.

  2. See,
    Two people having an intellectual conversation on a touchy subject with no cussing, ridiculing or ignoring each others statements.
    Even if there is something we will disagree on, we can respect each other and agree to disagree, but would still work with each other to find a solution to the problem.
    Because people like you and the others in the world that are waking up on this, and many OTHER subjects that are shrouded in SECRECY, I still have hope for a better day. But I think its going to get a lot worse before it gets better.

    P.S. You can find a great library of info on chentrails and other subjects like this at http://www.whatreallyhappened.com, pass it on if you feel the need…

  3. inthefront, apology accepted.

    I agree with you, all one needs to do is look at the sky. I point it out to people when a plane goes by and is spraying stuff vs a regular plane. It’s so obvious to me. You are also right that it’s only been going on for the last 10 yrs or so. The photos prove it. We don’t need only digital photos, look through your old photo albums and you won’t see these “chemtrails”.

    As far as the disinfo goes, you are also right, there are people who do this sort of activity. The people who commented here I believe are just not informed about chemtrails (yet). But posts like this help get the word out and may get some people thinking and maybe even looking up at the sky.

    The secrecy bothers me a great deal. If they (whoever they are) are attempting to help with climate change, you would think that they would be talking about it. It does make one wonder.

  4. Sorry to make allegations like this, but there are tell tale signs or this type of activity. I apologize profusely and do not mean to ruffle feathers, if anything I hope they are just people who have a strong commitment to their ideals. There is SO much dis-info being placed on the net to cloud the facts and cause disagreements on subjects like this, distractions to keep us from seeing the clear reality unfolding before us.

    I am 35, and NEVER saw trails like this when I was growing up, they started around 97-98 and have got worse up till now. Fact is contrails disappear within minutes of being formed, this is true and science has backed this up with facts. You can look up in the sky and see it every day. But contrails do NOT stay for hours, and do NOT look like man made clouds expanding into a thick cloudy haze. When you get up in the morning to go to work, and its a clear blue sky, you easily notice the planes that have contrails and the ones that are spraying. When they spray, its line after line, right next to each other. Sometimes there is a break in the stream, and another plane will come and the spraying will start RIGHT where that one left off. These planes are ALL white with no markings and DO not follow the commercial air paths most of the time. I have read info from people who HAVE taken the time to verify that, and its evident that thes planes arenot always flying in directions ( and altitudes ) that are normal commercial paths.

    Fact – These planes ARE spraying SOMETHING into the air – Fact – this white aerosol/powder does not go away in a few minutes, and expands to cover the clear sky – Fact – It has been reported all over the world.

    No matter what these people say, these facts are here for those who have woken up and are taking notice, and millions more are taking notice very quickly. It used to be said that people that read stuff like this on the internet were kooks and freaks, were shuned and in the minority, but the tides have changed and now they are becoming the majority.

    I dont know what this stuff is, and honestly I dont have the scientific qualifications to figure it out. But its there, it happeneing, and fact is a LOT of people are sure trying real hard to tell us to “Move on citizen, there’s nothing to see here.”

    Thanks for a great blog Dandelionsalad!

  5. inthefront, that’s quite an allegation you’ve made. TRM has a blog on WordPress and comes by here frequently, I don’t think he’s getting paid by the govt to cause friction. Have both of these people been to other sites together? Not that that would mean anything though.

    This is a difficult topic to discuss as it would mean that people who have trusted our govt would now have to question it. That’s hard for many to do.

    Definitely agree with you about keeping our minds open, that’s how we learn about things we are unfamiliar with.

    Peace to you, too.

  6. TRM and Just1American are Govt. paid “shills” people, they get paid to frequent forums and debunk the truth and irritate other posters hoping to stop the thread from expanding. Their blind ingnorance is the first sign, the tag team style of their posts are the second. The people that are behind all this are getting worried, too many peoples eyes are opening to the truth of the matter, and are taking the plunge down the rabbit hole to find knowledge.
    Truth is stranger than fiction, and our current state of truth is a nightmare unfolding before us… Stay strong and keep your minds open, Peace.

  7. Why are people so resisting to believe?? In Tn, we were sprayed lots. But nothing like what just happened here in Ky.The spray began Friday, continued Sunday, Monday morning, again for 3 hours and in less than an hour the sky had a sick blanket and it wasn’t normal clouds–I think the spray is done in 2 or 3 phases and the last spray was the inhibitor that spread the mists so thick.
    It just cleared to blue skies today, 3:00 p.m. Oh, and no, not cloud seeding in October, and no rain. Forget that theory.
    We weren’t sprayed for several months not in courtesy to the farmers, but sheer survival–no sun, no crops!!!!!!

  8. Traditional contrails form as two distinct trails. As you watch, these start to become wavy and broken, and will dissipate within a couple of minutes.

    Chemtrail contrails, which were first really noticed in the late 1990’s, form as a single trail, which initially forms ‘globules’ on its underside that appear to be dropping out of the trail. Over time, the trail spreads outwards and slowly dissipates to create high-level ‘cloud’. (It may be more than a coincidence that the same dropping ‘globule’ formation occurs with skywriting.)

    During the 1980’s I spent many hours observing cloud formations. The ‘clouds’ formed by chemtrails are unnaturally white in colour compared to natural clouds, and if you look closely with sunglasses you can see the secondary colours cyan (blue/green) and magenta. (Presumably the third secondary colour yellow is too faint to observe.) These clouds are accompanied some hours later by ‘dirty-looking’ lower level cloud.

    Natural ‘cirrus’ is created by high-level winds. Following the start of chemtrail activity, ‘cirrus’ tails started to be observed in a cross formation. I would imagine that high level winds would not blow at 90 degrees to each other.

    During the 1980’s, I never witnessed areas of haze covering the sky. I never saw the ‘chembows’ associated with this haze, where light is split up into a mini-rainbow, until 1992. The only natural phenomenon that can create a mini-rainbow is known as a ’sun dog’. Traditionally, sun dogs were rare and therefore noteworthy. Today, you see mini-rainbows all the time if you are observant.

    Often chemtrails appear in areas where there is no commercial traffic.

    The the US, chemtrails are often laid down in X formations. Why would commercial traffic be involved in such dangerous maneouvres?

    Often four planes are observed in the sky at once, flying in different directions. Wouldn’t this be a bit dangerous for commercial traffic?

    I have seen a chemtrail in a fairly tight loop formation. What commercial plane would fly in a loop unless it was near an airport?

    Chemtrails are seen to abruptly start and finish, often approaching population centres. If they were simply water vapour, this would have to indicate anomolous differences in air temperature at the flying height. Natural contrails form when the outside temperature is minus 40 degrees.

    It is also common for chemtrails to be laid upwind of population centres, away from regular commercial traffic routes.

    I think the skeptics have some explaining to do.

    China is blatant with this “technology” per the LA Times. “Cloud-seeding is a relatively well-known practice …” Isnt science wonderful or has it failed our mother earth?

    Go back to sleep, turn your tv back on, step away from the window.. you’re government loves you. You are free to watch American Idol. You are free…to do as we tell you. You are free…to do as we tell you!

  18. just1American, who said Bush has anything to do with this other than you? As far as I know this began in the late 90’s under a different administration. Remember Bill Clinton?

  19. Newbie, good points.

  20. I never thought to link this to either party before. Either way it’s happening. I remember watching planes make contrails when I was growing up in Florida. They fascinated me because thet were rare and you could watch as they went away behind the jets. Now they are lower, most planes make them and they do not go away, but spread across the sky. They never did that before. If these are contrails, why do they behave differently and why do most planes, instead of a few planes make them?
