lol...from the article and based on his research>>

“He and other scientists have discovered that airplane contrails create cirrus clouds on days they wouldn't usually exist.

According to his calculations, the cirrus-cloud cover over the United States is increasing by 1 percent each decade as a result, effectively contributing to global warming by blocking the release of heat from the planet. <<

Silly me...I always hope for clouds on those blistering hot days....it ain't the sun that's causing the heat...its the clouds!!
(so much for science and an ice age caused by volcanic ash/clouds) I'm no scientist..but call me a skeptic for now..

The arrow is scary, but who dumped all the blue paint on the California coast? And what’s with the square spider web settling over America? Can you imagine the size of that spider???

I live under the east/west flight path about 70 miles out from Detroit. Not all jets leave contrails depending on what altitude they’re at or what type of air mass they’re in.. Sometimes I see zero contrails in a sky that nearly always has several jets within the area of sky I can see. Other times the sky is loaded with them and sometimes I see only one or two.

Since you seem to gullibly believe every “fact” spewed out by the gubmint and I don’t, here are a few MORE “facts” I don’t believe: I don’t believe BHO was actually born in Hawaii. I don’t believe BHO has EVER had any intention to actually increase jobs and lower unemployment. I don’t believe BHO is a Christian. There are many more, but why bother?

He does not have all the data. Classic misapplication of sciniece . One look at the video identifes it as a missile launch by experts who know.

He doesn't have all of the data....so, he is wrong. But, those that simply looked at the video have enough data....

OK

If you haven’t heard it all by now, its useless to repeat it.

Maybe you should listen to your own advice.

I don’t really care what the conclusion of the whole missile thing was.

You’re still a jerk with a short posting history who decided to make fun of long time FReepers with this thread

Piss off Wanker.

This stuff has been happening more frequently. Really odd things have been going on.

Ummm, what’s your point (I assume you have one)? You think I’m some fan of BHO because after adding up all the arguments I believe it was an airplane contrail?

I have spent my life around aviation and particularly around missiles being fired from the surface. That was a solid rocket fuel, surface fired missile.

That would make you a knuckle-dragging gargoyle to the Contrail Conquistadors around here..;oP

That is true. I believe Clinton admin covered up a big terrorist attack and the American Sheeple eat it up. Hook, line and sinker...

Your post doesn’t make sense - I wasn’t giving advice.

To clarify, I was saying all the evidence has been hashed and rehashed on FR. There are some people that are going to call this thing a missile because it looks like a missile to them, no matter what the other evidence shows.

It isn’t worth digging up all that evidence for people that have made up their minds and won’t change them.

See any missiles lately? Did you see the photo of the one spotted over Kansas? Those chi-com bastards!

Long time Freepers made fun of themselves for embracing such absurdity.

Heh... that was a funny thread.

What’s wrong with making fun of that? It’s deserved, and hey... I’m a long-time freeper too.

Sometimes there’s nothing left to do but point and laugh.
