Exploding the That Wasnt A Missile Myth
By Gargantua
What appeared to be a missile rose from below the horizon, streaking into the sky off of California leaving a condensation trail identical to the kind that have been filmed being left by a ground-or-sea-to-air launch of a Minuteman missile or ICBM.
First, the Government was inexplicably mum on the topic. Next came a series of sometimes contradictory explanations. Now, days after the event, the finally agreed-upon explanation hits every news station all at once. Its the con-trail of a jet returning from across the Pacific.
There are two glaring problems with this obviously false explanation.
First, the shape and density of the con-trail.
A missile launch would be more dense and wide at its base, just as we see in the images weve been shown. A jets con-trail would be thinner and smaller the further away as it trailed off toward the horizon. We see the opposite in the availale video footage.
Second, the lighting.
In the video footage, we see stratus clouds out over the ocean behind the rising missile. The setting sun is shining on, and illuminating, the bottom of those clouds. On the con-trail, however, the illumination from the sun appears on the right-hand-edge; just as it would if this were a launching missiles vertically rising con-trail. There is no illumination of the underside of the jets horizontally oriented con-trail because it is not a jets con-trail, it is a vertically-oriented missiles launch contrail with the sun lighting up the side away from us. Very obviously so.
The Government must think we are at least as stupid as they are if they think this lame explanation is going to fly.

But not "slavic." How do you expect people to take your protestations seriously when you clearly have no idea what you're talking about? Maybe you should change your screen name to "Slo Zvirat."
I know the Slovakian Ska band might not be impressed, but at least FReepers would know that they could trust you.
Promise me you'll think about it. Slo.

Boy, he is a legend in his own mind, isn’t he?
Not true. I have a photographic memory, and I remember how many times you've written to me on this thread. That's all I've metioned here. You big silly. You may very well be paranoid if you actually believe what you said here.
In fact, you're either a paranoid with a persecution complex, or a liar. That is one sad self-portrait to be painting here, for the whole world to see...
;-\
You still have no answers, just insults.
Man up, admit you have nothing and you are just blabbing now.
I asked you specific questions, you haven’t answered them, don’t be a coward.
Yep, typical conspiracy theorist, when you ask them for proof, they have nothing, so the either start a new conspiracy, or accuse you of being part of the conspiracy, or they just make insults. Childish behavior on his part.
In all honesty, I lost count over thirty years ago. While my self-opinion is certainly among my greatest attributes (and they are legion!), it has nothing to do with the truth of my resplendent fame. But, hey, don't let it bring you down. The world needs inconsequentially insignificant drones, too.
That's as valuable a societal contribution as my own. It gives the world a base-line to measure the truly great ones against. How boring would it be if we were all multi-talented savants?

Oh boy oh boy. A real celebrity in our midst!
I'm so honored to be in you presence. I'm not worthy. < /s >
Is your ego feed enough now?
Go get your narcissistic personality disorder treated and stop playing the "I'm Famous" card. No one here gives a rats ass who you are. But they can all see that you are a total jerk.
"...According to one source within the Pentagon, many of the top brass were in unscheduled, high level meetings throughout the day. Although he was not privy to the information imparted during these meetings, he told me that there was an air of deep concern among the officials, and all participants had a DAWT policy (dont ask because I wont tell) policy. Surreal was just one of the adjectives amply used by my Pentagon source.
At the very least, according to this source, it was a missile. As to whether it was ours or theirs, he does not know. But he said they do, a reference to the brass. The rumors circulating within the [Pentagon] rings suggest that it was a deliberate launch of a missile from Chinese property at sea intended as a warning to the U.S. Although it was odd that he would not clarify the nature of the Chinese property, I can only assume that it did not originate from Catalina Island or U.S. military ships in the area, as we still own those, at least to my knowledge.
A domestic intelligence source speaking to me off the record acknowledged the event by his assurances that it was indeed some type of large missile...
So we are informed that the Pentagon is aware of this missile launch, that it is indeed a missile launch, and as I proposed back in the first 50 posts on this thread, it was a sabre-rattling warning from the ChiComs.
The truth of this, by the way, will come out. I won't expect an apology when it does, then again, just knowing I'm right is its own reward... the very best reward anyway.
You should also learn that famous people couldn't care less what the peons think of them, and geniuses live with the fact that their contemporaries will never undestand their gifts, or their burdens.
Last, I believe we're over 450! Good going guys!

Quit dodging, answer my questions about your “missile”.
You can’t and you are too cowardly to admit it.
No treatment required, it's not a "disorder" unless it negatively affects my ability to function on a day-to-day basis, or intereferes with my social interactions. The only people my narcissism negatively affects are the jealous, nobody, sour-grapes wannabe's who envy my exquisitely gifted persona.
"...and stop playing the "I'm Famous" card."
Not a "card" unless it's a falsehood or an exagerrated contriveance. It's neither. Two-for-two wrong again, Dittz. Man, I can only imagine how bad that must suck... but, then again...
...why would I? BwwwaaaAAHHH-HAAA-HHHAAAAA-HHHAAAAA!!!

Go argue with the Northeast Intelligence Network if you really have no meaningful way to spend your time.
Slo.

Don't you ever tire of posting the same ignorant sh*t? Here, try this from "Reuters" news, Canada.

This is part of the reason for the Chinese missile launch 35 miles off the coast of Los Angeles.

We're closing in on the truth... as I always knew we would. This is just too big to bury, and the folks who lit that candle aren't just going to quietly slink away. That was just the first cannonball across our prow. Not the last.

Gee, there’s just coincidences all over the place.
WE (the USA) are in BIG trouble. Things seem to be getting dangerous.
Again, you have no proof, and you can’t answer my simple question, except to make jabs and insults, and that really speaks more about you than me.
So, given that I’ve offered you plenty of opportunities to answer my questions, and you instead have weaseled your way out, I’ll just declare victory and move on. Your style of debate may have worked great when you were in 4th grade, but everyone else grew up while you didn’t.

The Northeast Intelligence Network is anything but a 'credible source.' It is a site designed to attract the gullible and the paranoid. Debbie Schlussel nailed them a couple of years ago for plagiarism. The 'founder' Doug Hagmanm (not Larry) is a flat out hustler. He's been doing it for years. Before 9-11, he was out to prove there were Big Foot running around Northeast Ohio, for crying out loud.
9-11 gave him a whole new set of suckers to hustle -- apparently even snaring some of the self-annointed superior intellects such as yourself. (BTW... Is your MENSA membership up to date? Does MENSA have a Gullible Division?)
I just went to his site and they have a headline that a 'Pentagon source' says that is was a cruise missile caught on that News chopper's tape the other day.
I wish the conspiracy buffs would get their acts together. First they say that it was a powerful ballistic missile which went straight up into the stratosphere just like the launches from Vandenberg. But that is not what cruise missiles do. They are designed to fly low and follow terrain so that they can't be tracked by ground radar. They would never be high enough to either be seen from many miles away or to leave a contrail behind.
I wish they would just pick a single crazy theory and stick with it.
