Chemtrails. What are they?
Why should you care?

Update: Feb 27, 2006. A customer in a rural California community sent us a link to his local newspaper's Chemtrail articles. Seems that Chemtrails are making many people sick in his community, according to doctors and pharmacists. The two articles are listed below.

At first glace, a secret government program set-up to dump millions of gallons of jet fuel and weather manipulating chemicals into the atmosphere may seem a little far fetched. How could our government allow the military to do such a thing? If you're thinking "what in the world are you talking about?"....then let us give you a crash course in the aerial spraying program referred to as Chemtrails.

If you look up in the sky and see a normal jet, you'll often see a white contrail streaking behind the aircraft. Moisture in 1000 degree Fahrenheit jet exhaust does often freeze into this white visible ice crystal refereed to as contrails. Contrails last around 30 seconds then dissipate. Chemtrails on the other hand are thick, white, "smoke" like trails in the sky that last 30 minutes or longer and can even become cloud like structures. These Chemtrails which are most often created by large military fueling jets often make geometric shapes in the sky, plus signs, hexagons, etc. (The NSA which is in charge of this program refers to this secret Chemtrails program as "Operation Clover Leaf", "Operation Red Sky", "Operation Rain Dance" by the way)

How are Chemtrails created? Raw fuel along with other toxic chemicals which are added for weather manipulation purposes (as well as other nefarious reasons) are sprayed into the atmosphere by military aircraft. Why? Where is the proof? There are 7 patents dealing with weather manipulation, barium sulphate, and aerial spraying which basically outline the Chemtrails program. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to put one and one together, yet this program goes unreported by the media year after year.

What are some other ingredients of Chemtrails? Around 1990 our government announced jet fuel would be reformulated to include a special chemical that would help mitigate engine knock and make fuel less combustible. Within a few years, stories began to surface about health problems being experienced by people working in or near airports, especially in cold weather location where clouds of raw jet fuel vapor were being released from cold engines during the engine start-up procedure. Lawsuits sprung up and many victims were able to obtain samples of the jet fuel for analysis. The culprit, Ethylene Dibromide. This substance is one of the most toxic pesticides ever developed and also the first to be banned FOR ALL USES that would put it in contact with the environment or any living organism. So what does this have to do with Chemtrails? This toxic chemical is one of the poisons being introduced into our environment when aerial spraying, Chemtrails are created. The main component of Chemtrails however is barium sulphate, like ethylene dibromide extremely toxic.

In areas where Chemtrails are sprayed at low altitudes, people can actually smell the fuel, feel it on their skin, and even taste it. Fuel vapor has two different densities. The kerosene is heavier and wants to hang around while the lighter gasoline is lighter and drifts. This would explain why chemtrails develop a thick edge with a lighter feather edge downwind...the gasoline bleeding off. That's why chemtrails smear the sky instead of just drifting along as one single line like a normal uniform line produced by water vapor. (contrail). Look up sometime when you first see a white streak across the sky, often you can see both chemtrails and contrails in the same sky.

Now onto the conspiracy theories. Why would our government from the begriming of the Bush era on set-up a program to dump millions of extra tons of fuel every year plus harmful chemicals into the atmosphere? There are probably several reasons. The powers that set this program into motion must have known about the negative health consequences that would be associated with this spraying, mainly the ruination of our immune systems making us less resistant to airborne diseases. Medical data supports the alarming increase of death and serious illness by mysterious "flu like" symptoms in many corners of the world. I could go on and add speculation and information I've gathered from military personal and from researching Chemtrails on the Internet, but suffice it to say that it is impossible to get any concrete proof when dealing with secret government programs. Everyone should do their own investigations and research and come to their own conclusions when it comes to the motives behind chemtrails and at the same time take measures to protect their health.

What can we do to protect ourselves? 1) Utilize air purification devices indoors, at work, and in our cars. 2) Eat healthy and take plenty of nutritional supplements to boost your immune system, such as essential fatty acids and antioxidants. Chemtrails will impact the very poor and very young the most, and the long term effects don't look good. Many people complain their infant or young children are always sick. 3) If you have media or government contacts, have them see if they can help expose this program. While we can't control secret government programs, the wise will do their own research into this phenomena and take appropriate actions to protect their health and the health of their family.

Increased illness linked to mystery powder

Mountain Communities

More mountain patients reporting sickness since yellow dust appeared

by Laurie A. Kelly

The unexplained yellow powder that mysteriously appeared in mountain communities last Dec. 7 and again in February has prompted The Alpenhorn News to further investigation of the appearance of these aerial trails that many believe are the cause of the increase in respiratory problems plaguing mountain communities.


Chemtrails, the visible vapor streams left by low-altitude chemical spraying, have been under scrutiny for more than seven years now, since the first appearances of the heavy white streamers in the sky in early 1999. Despite the efforts of investigators, very little information has been released to the public.

Locally, the issue surfaced in early December when many mountain residents observed a fine, slippery yellow powder on their cars and around the exterior of their homes.

Gretchen Sherman, who lives in Cedar Glen, said she was concerned enough about the situation that she notified the South Coast Air Quality Management District and the agency sent an inspector to her home. The man took a sample, she said, and tentatively identified the powder as cedar pollen.

However, a biologist told this newspaper that December is not the season when cedar pollen normally appears, and that when it does appear, in the spring, it does not “explode.” Several witnesses said they had seen a yellow cloud “exploding” in the skies over the Lake Arrowhead area prior to the appearance of the mysterious yellow dust or powder.

Government officials have repeatedly dodged the questions of concerned citizens and, when pressed, have said the appearance of powder in other areas is nothing more than pollen. People continue to become ill and high levels of chemicals continue to show up in random testing of soil and water supplies, according to informed sources.

In the beginning, the activities of chemtrail investigators were considered nothing more than speculation. Scientists connected to these efforts were considered to be conspiracy theorists. But with the increasingly visible presence of chemtrails, many contend that the time has come for speculation to lead into knowledge, as theory – and fears – are apparently becoming reality.

Witnesses have told this newspaper that they have seen and photographed KC 135s and KC 10s, stripped of any military markings and outfitted with what appears to be a “spraying device.” Airport personnel and pilots have confirmed for this reporter that some commercial airliners have also been outfitted to leave long-lasting chemtrails. One former Air Force pilot, who wished not to be named, said, “Yeah, we have them, but were not supposed to talk about it.”

The existence of equipment capable of producing aerosol spraying has been demonstrated, and senior Air Force officials acknowledge this capability, though they say its purpose is pest control and fuel dumping.

But nonmilitary sources say there are two major reasons for the use of such equipment – weather modification and biochemical warfare. As more information is discovered the two are appearing more like a single cause.

Community after community continues to report that hundreds of people are becoming ill at the same time, and these reports usually follow on the heels of times of heavy chemtrail activity. In San Bernardino Mountains communities, three physicians, all of whom asked not to be identified, have reported an increasing number of patients being seen for similar illness since December.

Persistent hacking coughs, upper respiratory and intestinal distress, pneumonia, extreme fatigue, lethargy, dizziness, disorientation, splitting headaches, elevated arthritis symptoms and unexplainable nosebleeds are just a few of the symptoms these doctors have described.

These doctors have said they are seeing larger numbers of patients with these complaints during or within days after the times that the physicians themselves have observed a larger number of chemtrails in the skies above mountain communities.

Ed Burrows, a pharmacist who lives in Crestline, told The Alpenhorn News that he is seeing similar signs of illness in himself. Since early December he has been suffering from a respiratory ailment that has includes a “gooey phlegm” that, despite his best efforts, he has been unable to relieve. Burrows said the issue is raising “high concern” for him that his health may be “jeopardized.” Burrows said he “feels that it is directly related” to recent chemtrail activity.

“Our government’s refusal to level with the people indicates that whatever it is they are polluting our environment with must be dangerous and/or unhealthy. There is no need to be secretive if what you are doing is beneficial,” he said.

In an e-mail he sent to this reporter, Burrows wrote, “As the former owner and pharmacist of the Lake Gregory Pharmacy for more than two decades, this is the first time in those 22 years I’ve witnessed so many in our community suffering with respiratory ailments with no apparent cause… Edward Burrows Pharm. D, RPh.”

Many respected researchers are attributing these illnesses to toxic chemicals used in government-sponsored weather-modification programs already in effect and intended to minimize the effects of serious weather events such as Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Senate Bill 517, proposed by Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-TX), would create a platform for future legislation that would allow for a nationwide weather-modification advisory and research board to make large-scale chemical alterations in our atmosphere. Authoritative sources say this is already occurring.

High levels of barium, aluminum and quartz have already been found in areas that have been reporting heavy chemtrail activity. Those substances, though natural minerals, have never been detected in those areas previously. For example, in portions of Canada, one of the first countries to raise awareness of aerosol spraying, barium and aluminum levels were found to be seven times above normal, according to media accounts published in a Vancouver newspaper in 1999.

Since publishing the story last week The Alpenhorn News has received requests for information from organizations as far away as Chicago. Many of these organizations have said they are having difficulty getting the news media to publish stories regarding the kinds of chemtrails that have been recently spotted above the San Bernardino Mountains.

Mysterious powder shrouds area

Mountain Communities

by Laurie A. Kelly

The appearance of persistent white streaks known as chemtrails in the sky and the recent discovery of a mysterious yellow powder on cars and homes have mountain residents concerned and seeking answers, and some of the possible explanations are frightening.


The appearance of these substances seems to be coinciding with higher numbers of patients being treated locally for unexplainable nosebleeds and respiratory ailments, physicians have reported.

During the week of Dec. 7, local residents say, a large yellowish cloud was seen “exploding” over Cedar Glen. This yellowish haze was reportedly seen as far away as the north side of Lake Arrowhead.

Tina Strouse, a resident of Cedar Glen, noticed the yellow powder the next morning when she left for work in Crestline. She said she noticed it on her car at first, but when she stopped to get her mail from the post office she realized just how heavily coated Cedar Glen was.

“It was all over everything,” Strouse told The Alpenhorn News. “It was like dust, but it was different. When you walked on it, it was slippery.”

Strouse recalled that during her drive to work she noticed that the powder was still coating the ground, although the closer she got to Crestline the less she noticed it.

Strouse also said that the night before she noticed all the “powder” on the ground, her mother had been to her house for a visit. That evening they had been sitting outside on the deck relaxing, at approximately the same time that other residents of the Lake Arrowhead area noticed the yellowish cloud. The next day, Strouse said, her mother became very ill, actually requiring medical treatment. Doctors attributed the illness to allergy symptoms, she said.

Mysteriously, by the evening of the next day, rumors of explanation were already beginning to circulate concerning the yellowish substance. Mountain residents were told that the powder was cedar pollen which had somehow been caused to explode from the cedar trees.

Strouse said that at the time she was very confused by that explanation. To her and other residents of the area, she said, it seemed odd that all the cedar trees had decided to “explode” at exactly the same time.

Scott Eliason of the Big Bear Discovery Center said the pollen explanation is not necessarily consistent with the facts.

“Trees can form pollen and explode, but the time of year (December) is off,” Eliason said, noting that trees usually release their pollen in spring or early summer. Despite extensive research The Alpenhorn News could not find any cases of pollen being released in such large quantities that the pollen cloud could be seen as a haze, miles from its point of origin.

There is another, more feasible, yet upsetting answer to the arrival of the yellowish powder. Controversy is on the rise concerning recent activities occurring in airspace over the entire country. Chemtrails, which were once disputed as a hoax by Colonel Walter M. Washbaugh, a spokesman for the United States Air Force, are being proven to exist.

Contrails and chemtrails are similar in appearance but vastly different in their content. Both appear as vapor emanating from the rear of aircraft flying at high altitudes, but chemtrails, unlike their more benign counterparts, do not dissipate easily. Chemtrails have also been reported to be visible at approximately the same time unfamiliar substances have been reportedly detected in large bodies of water and on the ground.

Government officials have tried to explain away the controversy by leading people to believe that the aerial spraying they have witnessed is nothing more than the Air Force assisting local areas to alleviate pest and weed problems.

In the case of the yellowish powder Strouse discovered, The Alpenhorn News queried the California Department of Forestry and Fire’s Insect Control Division. The response offered by officials at that agency was that they “have not dumped pesticide in two years.” Further, those state officials said they were “just concentrating on keeping roads clear of dead branches and bark beetle trees, to ease any need of evacuation.”

Laboratory studies of other areas that have had similar occurrences to the one in Cedar Glen have shown that samples of snow and soil tested after exposure have elevated levels of barium salts, aluminum and quartz. These particles are known to be sunlight reflective and possibly used in experimental weather modification.

However, these heavy particles have also been mentioned in studies as possibly bringing viruses from the upper atmospheres down to ground level as they descend.

There is speculation that these particles could also be a factor on the mountain. Local doctor’s offices, such as the office of Dr. Walter Bramson in Crestline, are reporting a possible rise in the instances of asthma attacks in patients who were previously undiagnosed, as well as nosebleeds and respiratory illness.

Sources report that the federal government and the military are deeply engrossed in several major programs that include experimental aerial spraying of dangerous particles. None of these programs are being disclosed to the public. Some scientists have released information concerning them, but have requested anonymity for fear of the consequences of being identified as an information source.

The largest of these programs is reportedly being conducted by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) as a biological detection and decontamination program. This program involves the release of the aerial spraying of barium-based particles that are combined with polymer fibers. It is believed in scientific circles that the release of these physical irritants may be responsible for the nationwide increase of arthritis symptoms, nosebleeds and pneumonia.

The soluble salts of barium-based particles are known to be toxic to humans. They are rapidly absorbed into healthy tissues such as bones, muscles and the lungs. However, there are currently no detailed case data available on the effects of long-term exposure of the body to these chemicals.

Recently the U.S. Senate has considered legislation, Senate Bill 517, introduced by Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson (R-Tx). This bill would allow for even more government experimentation concerning weather modification, thus perhaps allowing the introduction of more potentially dangerous chemicals into the atmosphere in the hopes of modifying dangerous weather patterns and improving the possibility of reducing global warming.

SB 517 does not allow for the detrimental affects of aerial spraying to be addressed. Some opponents of the bill stress that the need to “own the weather” should not be achieved at the expense of innocent citizens.

The San Bernardino Mountains may not be as removed from the world as residents would like to believe. Though it has not been confirmed at this time, local residents may have recently been subjected to another case of experimental testing.
