Dear chemtrail people,

Let's see...the Bush administration last week was successful in getting the House of Representatives to vote for military exemptions to the ESA and MMPA (that's Endangered Species Act and Marine Mammal Protection Act, but since you're environmentalists I probably don't have to explain that), our oceans are being blasted with LFAS (Low Frequency Active Sonar, but again, you probably know that), the U.S. and Britain just fulfilled Rumsfeld and Cheney's wet dream by taking control of Iraq whilst incidentally killing thousands of Iraqis and poisoning the land and water with yet more depleted uranium, Iran or maybe Syria is next on the list of nations to attack, our democracy is in shreds and the U.S. is now a fascist nation, human overpopulation and overconsumption are killing the Earth, since the beginning of this year billions of "farm animals" have met brutal deaths to satisfy the hunger of people who don't even realize that eating meat is toxic to themselves, the environment and just plain bad karma, people in their 30's, 40's and 50's are getting cancer in droves because petroleum-based pesticides and plastics mimic hormones in our bodies...and YOU people have the audacity to waste bandwidth on Indymedia with your endless machinations about something as imaginary as CHEMTRAILS!

I've read the links you've posted as evidence, and there is nothing credible there. I've even spoken with some of you face-to-face, and you really don't come off as people with a good grip on reality. I've lived in the Santa Cruz area for 21 years. The stars are not as bright here as they were 21 years ago, because our population has exploded. That's right, more people = more shopping malls, more cars, more development, and more lights! Duh!

Really, just because Kucinich said "chemtrails are real" and didn't say anything more than that is not proof! But you won't be convinced because you're just sure that we're being sprayed with poison from 30,000 feet above ground. I guess I just hope that you don't ever work on any real environmental issues because you don't lend the environmental movement any credibility.

And by the way, Van, you are right on the mark. You're posts cracked me up.
