Ah that solves it. That is definitely it, because it was coming out from both wings.
I can post diagrams to prove Chemtrails, too...

No, nothing of that nature. There are drain masts that are located in the centerline of the fuselage that are connected to galley sinks and lavatory sinks....but, anything poured down those will be very brief in appearance.
So, seems what you saw was possibly a fuel dump. Where and when, do you recall?
As to the CAL 777 in that video in New Jersey.....the dumping was in process as the video was shot because the crew was getting the airplane;s gross weight down as much as possible, because of the emergency situation. This incident was a large hydraulic leak that occurred right after take-off....the flight was departing Newark for Tokyo, so had a LOT of fuel on-board.
The hydraulics blew when they went to retract the landing gear. You can see the gear doors are still open....when the fluid was lost overboard, then there was no way to get those doors closed again.
Losing one (of three main systems) you are left with the two main, and couple of stand-by systems. Some components receive hydraulic power from all three (critical flight controls, for instance). Other things won't work at all, or have diminished capacity.... (including the brakes). The weight has to be reduced for the landing, since take-off weight for most large jets is higher than maximum landing weight.
Although, some smaller passenger jets do not have fuel dump capability....in those cases when overweight, it is still within the capabilities (usually)...or else, they would have been mandated.
Point is, dumping fuel in that manner, and location, is a very rare occurrence and only done as part of an emergency situation.
This paper describes the selection and preliminary testing of chemicals that might be used as aviation fuel additives to distribute these two products, sulphur dioxide and micron sized silica particles, from a high flying commercial or military aircraft. The two chemicals tested are dimethyl sulphide to produce sulphur dioxide and tetra ethyl silicate to produce silica particles. In a closed glass jar both of these chemicals are indistinguishable from jet aviation fuel. Both are clear, colourless, oily liquids. Both dissolve in aviation fuel in any proportion.

Is this your embedded video?? (One extra letter in the YT code):
Hasn't everyone come to realize, by now, that AJ is in the business of "controversy"? He is in it to make money, and get attention. Period.

Alex Jones is all over this thread...the issue is this...If there is any salient evidence, please present it...ZERO evidence has been presented thus far...anecdotal and pseudo-science is not acceptable evidence when it comes to this topic...

There's government documentation of this, all you have to do is look. There's also a PDF on the subject written by the government in this thread.
I know people love to argue just for the sake of arguing. To those, I will not waste my time on and be the solution to their boredom.
