It actually makes us look like some here believe their non scientific BS!
***There were people like that on FR, and you’ve been around long enough to see it.
Here’s a standard example below...

Can you imagine, being here on Free Republic and then finding that 8 years later, people are still looking for documents, while Obama is building his Presidential Library... :-)
Look, this is nothing in the annals of FR lore.
Remember the weeks of speculating that Gary Condit’s wife has no thumbs? We survived that, didn’t we?

Why would they quit looking just because he was building his mud hut in Kenya for his library?
That reminds me, did the Vince Foster thing ever get resolved?
Experts Fear Great Peril If SST Fumes Cool Earth E-MAIL Save By WALTER SULLIVAN

A federally sponsored inquiry into the effects of possible climate changes caused by heavy supersonic traffic in the stratosphere has concluded that even a slight cooling could cost the world from $200 billion to 500 times that much in damage done to agriculture, public health and other effects.
“did the Vince Foster thing ever get resolved?”
No!
The broom rider isn’t in prison!!!!
My point is well made.
LOL
I feel dumber for having read this.
Interests:
Climate change and its effects on ecology, socioeconomics and policy. Im new at NRCC as of November 2007 but have been a copyeditor for NPG since 2005. Before that, I studied molecular and marine biology [no mention of a degree](with a dash of the history and sociology of science), taught English in Slovakia, and edutained children in nonprofit theatre projects.
Another "educated scientist" brings up any old theory to further the global warming lie.
I wonder how she "edutained" children about global warming?
You've got it backwards. "If" CO2 induced warming is real, you want to INCREASE the effect of contrails (which cause COOLING). To do this, you would change the fuel formulation used during "cruise at altitude" to increase the sulfur content, but use low-sulfur fuel for takeoffs and landings.
It is a proven fact that the injection by volcanoes of sulfur compounds into the stratosphere increases high-altitude cloud coverage, which increases albedo and reflects more sunlight back into space---causing cooling.
Once in a while I listen to that. Sometimes it amuses me and sometimes I get so annoyed at the stupidity I have to turn it off after a few minutes. Bell's guests have obviously never heard of Occam's Razor. Sometimes it is amazing to hear some crank go from one bizarre theory to the next - the cranks will spin one thing after another out of nothing -
A crank will present the theory that no one really landed on the moon because space aliens won't allow it because the space aliens are controlled by Hitler's brain that is kept in a secret UFO base in Antarctica and the Israelies run this base and, by the way, are behind the Kennedy assasination - just like Nostradamus predicted! Oh, yeah, I almost forgot that the "face" on Mars was drawn by aliens from Andromeda and there is a secret code in the Bible that tells all about it, or something like that. A really good crank will go on like that for an hour or more.
Sometimes it amuses me as I try to keep up with the BS and sometimes it annoys me or bores me - I guess it depends on what mood I am in.
How many tons of fuel do airline dump per year it may have a part in a change???.
Then, invite any and all to attempt to locate a three-day timespan within that data that appears to be "anomalous".
If the three flight-free days are truly "anomalous", a "consensus" should form -- focused on those dates.
~~~~~~~~~~
My guess is that there will be hundreds of three-day spans that are "stranger" than those three days -- if the data is examined by those who are looking at "the big picture", rather than trying to find something odd about those specific three days.
Bottom line: the "three-day 'witch hunt'" approach used in the cited "scientific" study virtually guaranteed that the search would continue until something anomalous about those three days was found. That is not only lousy science, it is intellectual dishonesty.
Dimming the Sun
If the contrails are “White”, does that not mean they are also reflecting light photons back to the ground as well as reflecting incoming sunlight.
This study would need to measure the incoming EM radiation blocked/reflected back to space as well the outgoing EM radiation blocked/reflected back to the ground.
Messin’ with Sasquatch.
Chemtrail nonsense is old stuff. Even my mother laughed about it when I was a kid during the 50’s - 60’s.
why not after all cow farts cause globull warming.BUT the greatest contributor to globull warming is the sun. If these idiots had their way ... they would ban that too
