he's given a good explanation on his site for why he chooses to remain anonymous.

So what's the explanation?

Me thinks thou doth protest too much.

If Lassie says Jimmy is stuck in the well, and I go see Jimmy stuck in the well, I really don’t care if a dog was the source of the information.

And your obsession with the identity of ONE of the sources, while ignoring the content of the information, is very “liberalesque” in the debating style you are employing.

Aren’t you even curious about Unicus’s identity? Not even a little?

No. It is irrelevant.

Evidence is evidence.

>>You people have been quoting a BIRD PHOTOGRAPHER and his blog as one of your “It wasn’t a missile” experts.<<

“You people”?!

;)

I am reminded of the title of Glenn Becks book from last year.

I know. You people have been quoting a BIRD PHOTOGRAPHER and his blog as one of your "It wasn't a missile" experts.

OMG! He's a bird photographer? Well, he obviously he doesn't know what he's talking about then. /s

By the way, who are YOU? Maybe we should be looking into that before we pay any attention to you.

The video I saw contained artifacts that could be “interpreted” as sparks.

I’ve gotta be frank here: I was buying that this was a missile at first, before I saw the video. Then I saw the video.

It’s a stinkin’ airplane contrail. I even watched it over and over to see if I was missing something. The more I looked at details, the more evidence there was that it is an airplane in level flight. I say this as someone who has been fascinated with contrails his whole life.

Heck, I remember the contrails left by B-36’s when I was a kid. I’ve photographed them myself on many occasions.

This is clearly an airplane contrail. The ONLY thing that puzzles me about this is why someone in an official capacity would claim that there was a water launch 35 miles off shore. They are full of excrement.

Dogs don’t talk. So why would you follow his instructions without finding out more about this “talking dog”?

It’s a common contrail. The object is traveling toward you, not away from you, and since the contrail has a long persistence, it looks like it emanates from the horizon, thus the illusion that it is a missile traveling away from you.

Seems pretty clear to me.

If you really want to know, read his site yourself. He can explain it better than I can in translation.

It's an interesting site. I read through all of it (including the comments) several months ago. I learned a lot.

But its not, its getting smaller because it's going up, not flying level.

Please explain how the east side of the rising plume is bright when the sun is in the west?

I’m far from a liberal.

Your lack of curiosity about the backgrounds and expertise of these “experts” is typical of the liberal mind’s lack of curiosity about the background and expertise of The Kenyan (aka The Talking Dog).

Finally, I post on a pilot's blogsite and the dozen or so posters universally agree that it is not an aircraft contrail, too dense.

Please send me the link. Thank you.

Some of us can distinguish the difference between a source being the Soviet Propaganda Ministry and a source being some inconsequential flunky who likes to take pictures of contrails. The credibility of the former is automatically suspect, while the credibility of the latter is based on the merits of his evidence on its face.

Evidence is indeed evidence.
