OK, I got the reason for the sun-ring, (why are there ice crystals on such a sunny May day?)
Now, what about that plane making its way back and forth across the sky? Has it lost its way?
Why don't you do time lapse shots?
Or is that like asking the fox to kindly guard the chickens?!!)

You know what... Doing a google search for "cloud seeding" doesn't really return any real pictures. Must not happen as much as everyone here thinks.

You forget that it isn't an either/or scenario, because I believe contrails exist too.
Nothing at all about that automatically discludes chemtrails from also existing at the same time.
So what is "they"? Every white trail in the sky following every white plain? That is a leap of faith no more than believing that they are being dumped.

Never said you didn't, and it is irrelevant anyway.

no it's not automatic - and it is covered by the bit that says that there's no evidence there is anything else that they might be.

No it's not a leap of faith it is a trail of logic that I laid out in clear points.
If I am wrong then one or more of my premises must be wrong

Right, just like you'd have a "trail of logic" to assume the UK never dumped biological and chemical agents on people just because contrails exist, too, right?
It's logical only to someone who refuses to accept they are depending on known fallacies. Someone, like you.

And they are -- you are arguing from total ignorance. Not everyone has or even wants the groveling faith you have to your government officials.

huh? where did I ever say the Brits din't carry out the Porton Down experiments?
so you should be able to point to exactly which of my premises is wrong, and why, and not jsut make meaningless evaluations like "you are arguing from total ignorance".
Here it is again more or less:
1/ Long white trails look like contrails
2/ they are generated in the manner in which contrails are generated
3/ They behave in the way in which contrails behave
4/ there is nothing else known that they could be
5/ therefore it is reasonable to conclude that they are contrails.

But were those chemicals and biological agents all contrails, too? Contrails exist, so how could those chemicals also be dumped?

The fact that you are making a logical fallacy known as "argument from ignorance" is not meaningless. It is what you are specifically getting wrong.

Again, this is not an either/or problem.
"Domesticated dogs exist, they look like coyotes, they smell and behave like coyotes, therefore coyotes don't exist."
That might as well be your next argument.

post a picture of either a coyote or a domestic dog and ask me to tell you if it is a coyote or a dog and I will tell you which it is and offer solid evidence to support my claim.
See how it works?

So how would you tell a chemtrail apart from a normal contrail?
Give me specifics as to how you would be able to tell one white trail left by a plane, apart from another white trail left by a plane that has other chemicals in it.
