Alright.
I am personally slightly tired of all of this chemtrail stuff. So I propse that ATS, as a group, finally settle the issue. Now, as far as I understand
it, the gist of it is that nefarious and possibly governmental agencies are spraying the world full of equally nefarious chemicals from airplanes
(commercial and millitary). The evidence for this are large and spooky clouds in the sky that emerge from airplanes. Despite the quite thourough
debunking of these that has occured (I particularily recall Off_The_Street's excellent
6
reasons chemtrails don't exist) But I am a skeptic too. Let's say that there is a chance, no matter how remote, that this is real. In that
case, it should be possible to recover particulate matter, gasses, ice crystals, &c. from these clouds. And submit it to rigourous analysis.
So I am launching a challenge to the ATS community. Surely there are people here who are so convinced of the existence of chemtrails, or tired of
hearing of them, that they are willing to collect some of these samples, from wherever (and hopefully from many places). I would do so myself I
weren't an utterly broke college student *sigh*. If that is so, then I propose that we conduct a study. A real, scientfic study. I have access to
labs, however, and am willing to do the chemical analysis. I am prepared to go to whatever lengths it takes to convicne the other side that this is
fair and balanced. Follow me around to prove I'm not a disinfo agent, whatever.
But I will not be convinced that the chemtrails are anything other than a hoax unless I or anyone else can find concrete proof that there is something
in those clouds other than water vapor, the products of combustion, and typical atmospheric pollutants.
So, what do you say, chemtrailers? Any of you willing to back up your claims and subject them to real science and facts?
***DISCLAIMER: That's right, I don't belive in them. But I am openly declaring my bias. I do belive, however, that it is entirely possible to
conduct a fair and balanced study***
