Does anybody know where that contrail came from?
 

Classic response to a situation where, "not in my job statement" rules.

I can't believe the gov't is totally clueless about this thing. They may not be talking about it, but somebody knows something. Pentagon: Evidence indicates mystery plume was a plane contrail suggests it may not be the first time this has happened:
My guess is a test launch of a radar-invisible missile. Otherwise some air traffic controller somewhere on the west coast would have seen it. If it was an airplane contrail, ATC should have seen something. If it was a private missile, or launched by another country, and NORAD really didn't see it, then we might as well shut them down 'cause they aren't doing their jobs...

It was a recommissioned SR-71. :)

Definitely not a missile.

Jon Stewart did a good job poking fun at the media frenzy on the Daily Show (for running with the missile theory just b/c they couldn't get someone to confirm otherwise--something along the lines of, wow if a reporter can't navigate the government bureaucracy in less than a 1 hour segment, it suddenly becomes a government conspiracy?). The best part was when he showed a clip of the interview with the helicopter pilot that filmed the contrail--the pilot said he noticed the start of the trail, and then focused on it for about 10 minutes. Is the Daily Show really the only cable news that can do the math on that and realize that if a helicopter can film the trail forming over a 10 minute period, it has to be something a whole lot slower than a missile?

The CHINESE did it ??? (CNN iReport)
Two things came to mind: (1) this reminds me of a loanshark breaking a finger as a "reminder" to pay your debt. (2) does anybody think this would have happened with a Repub in the White House?

Nice find VR.

Yes, I'm sure there are some that feel it would have happened, I however, am not one of them.

Actually that's not a CNN report at all. It's an iReport posted by someone named DaElmer. According to CNN, iReport is a user-generated section of CNN.com. The stories in this section are not edited, fact-checked or screened before they are posted.

The actual source for the report is this link:

Shh, you will let the conspirators know, that we know, what they know. ;)

Ok, so Wayne's been branded a whackjob. But this whackjob's a former Navy anti-submarine expert who also worked in the NSA. It's not that big a stretch to believe he's still got friends in those areas and might hear things not made public. Nut or insider? Time will tell...
