More Chemtrail Fairy Tales

OK. You dont expect Pulitzer-Prize winning news reporting from KSLA12, Shreveport, Louisiana...

But you would at least expect that a journalist would know how to read and count...

Why spread lies?

The reading clearly says 68.8 μg/L of barium in the tested water.

1 μg/L or microgram per litre represents 1 part per billion (ppb) - look it up.

So that's 68.8 parts per billion, not 6.8 parts per million. That's 0.068 parts per million. A simple misreading out of ignorance has magnified the proportions by a thousand. The barium reading is actually 300 times less than the toxic level, which is unusual because barium in the water supply - from natural contaminants like rubber and fluorescent lights - is a real problem in large parts of the US.

As long as ignorant, uneducated people and podunk incompetent and scientifically illiterate "journalists" from Arkansas and elsewhere keep spreading outright lies like this one, we'll never get to the truth of the matter.

This news item is from August 2007 and debunked here: http://contrailscience.com/barium-chemtrails/

KSLA12 eventually issued a retraction but THAT never made it to YouTube...

Update: 5/2/2009

Jeff Ferrall, the reporter in the story now says:

http://contrailscience.com/barium-chemtrails/comment-page-8/#comment-23164

"Yes, I did make corrections to my first report, which originally aired almost 2-years ago now after quickly realizing my very embarrassing mistake. I was not happy with myself. Unfortunately, the first version of my report got out to the internet before I could make the correction(s), and the wrong version is shown repeatedly.

My feeling is, and maybe you'd agree, that if such aerosol mixes were created and loaded into jets with either a separate/independent dispersal method other than the exhaust, or actually in the fuel itself somewhere, somehow, you'd expect someone to talk. I have not heard that yet.

I also interviewed the scientist who originally patented what some believe was a precursor to so-called chemtrail technology. He's a very kind man who could not have been more helpful. He says he knows nothing about any such conspiracy."

The chemtrail web cult was accidentally started when Alex Jones made a shill video (for money) for the idiotic orgone products of one Don Croft. Jones also produced (for money) "Loose Change", the 9/11 video that taught the world that "the Jews" had been warned in advance of the attack on the WTC. Add to this explosive mix Obama-haters, NWO delusionals, white supremacist trailer park defeated Republican tea-baggers, Southern Baptist fundies, Holocaust-deniers, anti-rational Creationists, Global Warming deniers, with a sprinkling of alien abductees for good measure and voilà! Racist Loony Bin Central! If I remember correctly, we fought WWII against those people! And we won...

Fuck barium. Fuck the government, and finally, fuck the world. Could be real, could be conspiracy, either way you dont know shit.

[baracine]

@CantWeedThis

I'm sure you're an expert on shit.

[stars15k]

Oh, you will be blasted for this. I sure have been. I've researched further and 46 of the first 100 references on Google use this same report as their proof that barium is in chemtrails. And that wasn't looking around the site; I just looked for a link to the story on the page that opened. That's why CHEMTRAILS DO NOT EXIST, folks. You guys don't research and accept any story "proving" bad things while ignoring the proven science that says you are WRONG.

[zombiesmasher]

Aw look, I love it when rednecks try to think. It's so cute!

[Misanthropyish]

@CantWeedThis OH it's real, it just happened again yesterday. Pass the weed, I need something to help me cope with this shit...

Chemtards- best source of comedy on the 'net!

[CrudeDude]

@zombiesack > Duh I don't know what they are, but they're bad.

What a pathetic, uneducated, delusional moron.

[zombiesack]

if u look , you can find real evidence, and its on gov web sites...dip shit lol, this guy is a [ Talk-backer ] its his job, or theyre just very ignorant . The chemtrails are somthing bad but what ?

[MrVforvendetta10]

@baracine Have you personally been to the clouds in an aircraft and extracted acid rain and taken it back for sampling!people like you piss me off, either your intentions are to spread misinformation and disinformation etc or you have lost your eye sight and can no longer look at the sky.Are you really that weak that you cannot think for yourself? I want to come and live where you do, because it must be one of the few places in the world that is not being sprayed.

[MrVforvendetta10]

@baracine So how can you physically prove that is the case.From school we are taught that industrialisation, exhaust fumes,coal burning etc are to blame for "climate change and pollution and greenhouse gases."

That may be the case to a minor extent, what about trapped methane deposits, volcanic eruptions, farm animals producing huge amounts of methane and so on.We as humans have a miniscule effect on the earths environment compared to "natural causes"

[coldhardfacts]

@MrVforvendetta10 God damn right you are

[RoadRunnerLaser]

Ohhhh, who cares if the report is accurate or factual...? It's SENSATIONAL !!!!!!!
