And I have a vague idea as to what they are, but I don't know the whole story or why they're part of DU Lore. So what gives?

2. Wiki..
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemtrail_theory

I'm calling bullshit on this one. It don't think you can pull something off of that scale without a leak.

3. Should have seen the sky over my area this late afternoon
Funny you should mention it. THere were AT LEAST 50 or more of these trails overhead, criss-crossing all over the fucking place. Damn! I should have taken a pic! Will for sure when I see it again.

4. Completely stupid
even in the picture in the wikipedia article, they look like normal contrails. This is what happens when air exiting jet engines condenses. I think a lot of these reports come from people who are used to seeing a commercial aircraft's contrails, and then a military plane flys over, with a very different contrail pattern (due to different engine designs and speed of flight) and whalaa!!! Instant conspiracy theory!!!!

6. I agree
I live near a Naval Air Station, but have to say, the trails in the sky this late afternoon were more than I have ever seen at one time.

10. Complete bunk, in my opinion.
Been around the aviation industry my entire life and the notion is a bunch of crap.
