Suppose...and this is just supposing, of course...you had been running a decade or longer program of throwing mixtures of chemicals into the upper atmosphere in order to reduce global warming, and maybe...just maybe...again, speculating here, to keep people from seeing too much of what's going on in space. How would you transition the concept into the public mind as being 'acceptable' once it became obvious to enough aware serfpeople who serf the internet, ifn' you were the PTB?


Who knows, maybe if the roll-out of what's going on already is smooth enough, no one will notice the few leading-edge serf types on the 'net who should be saying right bout now "Told yah so!"



Obama looks at climate engineering


http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123920773503201665.html

WASHINGTON -- The president's new science adviser said Wednesday that global warming is so dire, the Obama administration is discussing radical technologies to cool Earth's air.

John Holdren told the Associated Press in his first interview since being confirmed last month that the idea of geoengineering the climate is being discussed. One such extreme option includes shooting pollution particles into the upper atmosphere to reflect the sun's rays. Mr. Holdren said such an experimental measure would only be used as a last resort.

"It's got to be looked at," he said. "We don't have the luxury of taking any approach off the table."

Mr. Holdren outlined several "tipping points" involving global warming that could be fast approaching. Once such milestones are reached, such as complete loss of summer sea ice in the Arctic, it increases chances of "really intolerable consequences," he said.

Twice in a half-hour interview, Mr. Holdren compared global warming to being "in a car with bad brakes driving toward a cliff in the fog."

At first, Mr. Holdren characterized the potential need to technologically tinker with the climate as just his personal view. However, he went on to say he has raised it in administration discussions.

Mr. Holdren, a 65-year-old physicist, is far from alone in taking geoengineering more seriously. The National Academy of Science is making climate tinkering the subject of its first workshop in its new multidiscipline climate challenges program. The British parliament has also discussed the idea.

Anyone know what SLAD is talking about?

Damn, what a buncha fruits loops.

SLAD is one of the most completely insane creatures to waste valuable air there is.

Her continued presence at the DUmp shows what a joke the place is or the fact that Skins keeps it there to mock their existence like we do.

[jinxmchue]

I loved it when Skins created the 9/11 dungeon and started drop-kicking every cockamamie conspiracy theory thread there before the election because he wanted the DUmp to appear more sane.  I'm just waiting for the other shoe to drop and he just starts a wholesale banning of all the kooks.

2. that's all fine and good now show me a photo where those contrails spread out and engulf the whole sky and get back to me.

Got to be talking about the same thing here or it doesn't count

4. Your "evidence" of "chemtrails" is that contrails spread out and engulf the entire sky? You know that contrails actually do that, right? More importantly, are you claiming you can tell the difference between a contrail and a "chemtrail" from on the ground? Really? How does one do that, exactly?

Again I ask...is there ANY conspiracy theory so goofy even YOU won't embrace it?

To answer for SLAD:  Yes. No. Yes. Yes. Because one spreads out and one doesn't. No.

5. nope don't know that and you do it with your eyes, try it sometime when they are open

SDuderstadt
 
6. So, you're claiming you can tell the difference between a contrail and a "chemtrail"...

merely by LOOKING? Tell us how one does that, SLAD, otherwise this is just more of your bullshit.

She already told you how, dimwit.

7. Contrails do not spread out and engulf the sky completely, but I repeat myself

See.

The only thing I can point out positive in this is that the primitives who are trying to show the conspiracy theorists how goofy they are know what we as conservatives have to deal with whenever we try and explain freedom, liberty, politics, economics, and morals to the primitives.

freaking morons..... too bad their kind have power.

[JohnnyReb]

OK, THAT DOES IT. .....NOTICE TO ALL..... From now on when flying you are to piss in a bottle and cap it... no more using the pilot relief tube.....the yellow contrails look to much like the chemtrails.

You'd think with the number of times she's had her ass handed to her in the 9/11 CT threads over there, that SLAD would have found a hole to crawl into and hide by now.

You have to remember that "prove that it is not" is a triumphant argument to a lunatic.
