Ohhhh. Big secret. The military uses chaff to protect their aircraft from missiles.
It has been documented in the past, particularly in western states, that NWS NEXRAD radar can detect chaff. What is that you ask? Chaff is a radar countermeasure used by military aircraft consisting of very small pieces of metal such as aluminum. It can appear as narrow bands of reflectivity on the radar since they are dispersed by planes flying at high speeds along a path.

Chaff is not "chemtrails".

believe is a strong word brother.
I am interested, as are many, in the 9/11 theories. It has been painful trying to sort through the garbage that is out there to find the few gems that hold some water. I am certainly interested in some of the explosions that were reported previous to the collapse and though its not yet up to "evidence" standards, it deserves every effort to validate and compile all the testimonies.
Aliens and ET life are also subjects I find incredibly interesting.
My point being that my efforts here are not to cripple the chemtrail theory, but to separate the convincing from the unconvincing.
I believe this incident to be entirely explainable and would like to keep it from being presented as evidence by anybody so as not to make the chemtrail theory supporters look lazy or uneducated.
Its all out of respect my friend, I really mean it when I say don't take it personally.

*After reviewing the thread I realise my first post or two may have come off as a bit harsh. I apologize to anyone that has been offended, but the laziness of some people around here does become frustrating. Not pointing any fingers, not calling out anyone directly, I just want my peers to put in some study time and look for proper evidence and sources. A solid argument will always accept, if not encourage, conflicting viewpoints, as any solid argument will look all the more competent in their presence.

Watch after 1:00 it's pretty interesting.
This video actually MIGHT be Chaff a military radar countermeasure.
en.wikipedia.org...
However, this is not 100% proven,
Interesting enough the military, of course, won't comment on it.
The weather man seems pretty nervous when he speaks about this incident especially if it's just "radar countermeasures".
Conspiracy still unsolved.

I still think that you are a disinformation agent and not a very good one.

Okay, thanks for clarifying. I still think that you are a disinformation agent and not a very good one. And, don't call me homie. Do you need the internet link for the definition of condescending?

So it's less like a bowling ball dropped on my head and more like thousands of golf balls? Thats what you mean by dispersed, right?
What about the effects on grown food?

Glad you brought that up because if you listen to the beginning of that weather broadcast (before he mentions "chaf") he alludes that farmers should "take care of their crops"....
Yes he mentioned that it could get cold overnight but i found that rather interesting considering the totally random bomb he drops about 1:00 in.
Also, before hitting play on the video, run your cursor over the video box, you'll see another message at the bottom/left which seems totally out of place:
"Be prepared..."
WTH is that all about ?!
