Instead, the only thing you are able to do is to make jokes, and poor attempts to ridicule the discussion. Very mature.
The problem is really very simple, this forum is home to contributors from all over the world of aviation both civilian and military. They know full well that the chemtrail conspiracies are nonsense, but are not willing to waste hours on end trying to explain complex technical subjects to the tin foil hat brigade.

For example:

1) I regularly see an intricate crisscrossing of lines, arcs and parallel lines covering the sky. What is the explanation for this? What types of flights are they? (ie, it's quite clear they are not passenger airlines as these flights are clearly recognisable and follow set paths) Where are they going to and from and for what purpose?

The reason I ask this is that the flight paths look crazy and start at low altitude, some going almost vertical, some diagonal, and there also seems to be a relationship between the lines that form in the sky on a day when there is a lot of vapour, as if they are working in harmony, to a set pattern as a formerly blue sky becomes covered in white haze.
The time it would take to explain the full detail of:
- Aerosol interactions and vapour nucleation
- Atmospheric conditions and how they vary subject to many many influences
- ATC procedures and routings
- Parallax and other visual effects which distort the trails.
is simply not worth the effort... even after explaining it all we're only going to be accused of being a government apologist or have our thorough understanding challenged by someone quoting some utter nonsense from a random source on the internet.

Finally, seeing as to be taken seriously you have to have an arty-farty quote at the bottom of your post:

"The internet is full of idiots who haven't got a clue what they're talking about and only a fool even attempts to stem that tide"
