The sad part is, it appears to be willful and intentional.
The ability to change your opinion in the face of new or different evidence is--at least it used to be--an admirable trait. If you're like me, the cranial density exhibited nowadays makes your head spin.
No chemtrail whack can explain how chemicals sprayed at 30,000 ft, in the presence of dramatic air currents, is expected to have any hope of hitting any intended target. Just once, I'd like to see one notice a persistent contrail.....then follow it. Maybe they'd get lost in the woods.
Anyone can write up, or draft a bill, but only a member of Congress can introduce it.
"Understand me. When I found out that was in there, I said, 'Look, I'm not interested in going there.' "

The spreading of jet contrails into extensive cirrus sheets is a familiar sight. Often, when persistent contrails exist from 25,000 to 40,000 ft, several long contrails increase in number and gradually merge into an almost solid interlaced sheet.

There are many types of clouds in the sky. Did you know that some of them are man-made? "Contrails" are the long, thin clouds that are left by airplanes as they fly past.
Contrails is short for "condensation trails." They are clouds that planes make. Contrails are man-made. They have a cousin that almost everyone has seen. Have you ever gone outside on a cold day? Have you seen a cloud come out of your mouth? That little cloud is made by water vapor that is usually invisible. In cold weather, the vapor condenses into a cloud you can see.
Contrails are made the same way. A plane has an engine. The exhaust from the engine has water vapor. Temperatures are colder at higher altitudes. Water vapor condenses into ice crystals. This leaves the white lines you see behind planes.
Sometimes, there is water in the air around the plane. This can make the contrail even bigger. If there is not a lot of water in the air, the contrails will not last long.
When there is a lot of water in the air, the contrails will last longer. Ice from the plane will join water in the atmosphere. This will make a long contrail behind the airplane. It will stay in the sky long after the plane is gone. They can last for hours! They can even grow. They can get as big as football fields. They can spread until they turn into cirrus clouds.
Contrails are made of water vapor. They do not hurt humans. NASA is trying to see if contrails may hurt the environment. Contrails are man-made clouds. They add to the Earth's cloud coverage. They might change temperatures and climates. We see a lot of contrails wherever there is heavy plane traffic.
Air traffic keeps getting busier. Scientists are looking into what contrails might do. NASA might find that contrails hurt the environment. NASA wants to stop this from happening. One way would be to have planes fly away from problem areas. Another way is to make better engines. NASA is working with partners to make better jet engines. Someday, you might not even see contrails behind planes!

So where does it say in all of this that conspiracy theorist talked the sentator into putting that word into the initial bill??? looks like your the one with the conspiracy theory

Because a bunch of chemtrail believers talked a senator into including it in his bill, even though he did not know it was a conspiracy theory. The Senator took some heat over that as well.

Where does it say in all this what chemtrails look like? What makes you think the bill referred to what most people call contrails? Maybe it meant chemical spraying which would not be visible from the ground?
Indeed, where does it say that chemtrails are not just a trail of chemicals laid along the ground by a man walking with a fertiliser sack that has a hole in the bottom????

And where does it say its not planes spraying chemicals in the air?

No they are not to be trusted... but the fact that they would put it in the bill and call it BY name should be alarming to any logical person.... .lawmakers may be liars. but I doubt they are loonies, and make things up that don't exist for political purposes. What political purpose can you think of that making such a thing up would serve?
So you are saying lawmakers are wrong\crazy and Chemtrails don't exist? if they don't exist then why would they be called out by the name in the initial HR-2977 bill
CHEMTRAILS do exist lawmakers have named it

I don't give a rolling dougnut about "cool"....
I am concerned about the lack of reasoning skills exhibited by members of a forum that used to be known for good discussion and insightful comments.
Do you care to take a stab at working through the scenario I presented? The one about the futility in "hitting the target?" Maybe we should scale down the thought experiment a tad....huh? How 'bout, emptying a can of RAID! at the warning track of Wrigley Field, expecting to harm the mosquito sitting on home plate?
Yeah....chemtrail whacks.....I'll stick with it.
Resorting to make calling is usually a sign of vairious behavioural disorders. Perhaps you should learn to respecet fellow ats members and learn that you are now not a child. Even if you don't agree with someone that doesn't give you the right to resort to name calling. We respect ourselves on ATS even if we disagree.. I beleive ats has some rules about this behaviour..

Okay, so chemtrails are real.
1) How can we recognise them?
2) Assuming we can see them, why?
3) What are they for?
I know answering questions is proving difficult for some people But surely someone can offer something for us to discuss?

Don't you get dizzy?
Thinking in circles like that?
"Kucinich wrote a bill naming chemtrails"
"I didn't say he wrote the bill"
"Thanks for pointing out that he wrote the bill""
(paraphrased)
