Interesting conspiracy theory but if fails the Occam's Razor test

be correct. The two most plausible (and simple) explanations are
that it was indeed a jet contrail observed from an unusual angle; or
two, that it was a classified US govt misile launch which take place
fairly often in coastal California. One of my old high school friends
is alleged to participate in that sort of thing (if they actually

"They" refers to the existence of which - high school friends or that sort of
thing?

Just wonderin'.

I had a friend from my high power rocket days that is actually a
"rocket scientist". A few years ago he showed me some pictures of a
mobile Scud Launcher, with Scud, that is sitting complete right here
in the US. Was brought over intact and completely functional. At the
time it's existence and location was classified, so he couldn't tell
me where it was. A couple of pictures later was a shot of an
interstate entrance sign with a city in the background. He just
smiled... wasn't too far from where I live.

Point is that the gov does stuff like this all the time. Classified
launches, denial of existence, etc. If the general public knew what
was actually going on, most would probably freak out.

I thought we agreed to cut out this political nonsense. Didn't you get

The high school friend definitely exists. :-)

Trying to confirm the existence of a classified launch is, uhhhh,
errrr, classified...

The issue as I understand it, is that most of the classified launches
are related to intelligence gathering satellites of various types.
These satellites use stealth coatings which make them difficult to
spot and track unless you know the exact orbital parameters. Some of
those parameters can be deduced from the time and location of the
launch so there is never any kind of pre-announcement or launch
confirmation (or so it is rumored).

Maybe the shadow knows for sure. :-)

And don't forget the Stealth Mufflers, attached to "muffle" the usual
rocket sounds. :)

That is off-topic Bob.

You're 'off topic' Kruger.
Post when you have something to say about boats.

Is this "about boats"?

"Those things are impressive.
Some in this country think Canada would be better off buying
pilotless
aircraft instead of the new F-35 planes we are considering.
http://www.cbc.ca/politics/story/201...jets-ccpa.html "

You should practice what you preach, eh?

Say hi to the 'sisters' for me.

Nice insulting, Don. I hope Harry will admonish you for that.

Don't count on it. He needs a friend.

That's because it's not a missile - it's a contrail.

http://uncinus.wordpress.com/2010/11/09/4/

Maybe.

No maybe about it.

Not to mention a contrail from a jet usually spreads out a ways behind
the aircraft. The front of the trail is usually thin until the wind
spreads it... This trail was thick right off the ass of the
missile, and
make no mistake, it was a missile, as it headed west downrange... oh,
and they know what it was too...

Did you read the freakin' article Scott?

Unmentioned in this whole thing is that nobody HEARD anything. If a
missile supposedly as large as this one supposedly was (ICBM), you
would have heard it - even from 35 miles away. Those things aren't
quiet.
---------
If you're upwind you probably wouldn't hear it, especially in a
place with a
lot of noise pollution.

Read the article... Saw dozens of reports, experts "on both sides" and I
believe myself it was "message" from some axis power saying "see, we can
sit in your back yard and you didn't even know we were there". That's
why it went due west.

Fact is, every single airliner is tracked to the inch by the second. If
there was a flight there someone would be able to say "this was flight
such and such" here is it's flight path... But they can't, there was no
plane...
