Malcolm,
It surely was not my intention to assign "debunker" status to you. I have read nothing in your posts to warrant such an assignation.
Yes, water vapor in such volumes as required to form "clouds" as we commonly use the term can and does linger.
But "volume" seems to be the key here -- at least to this non-scientist. Should we expect the amount of water vapor sufficient to promote common contrail formation to expand to a size that -- again, a ballpark estimate -- is seemingly, in some cases, a hundred times wider than the initial trail?
I'd also be interested in reading available data on contrail dissipation rates.
My mind remains open -- AND informed by too many years of study of too many bad-ass assaults on our physical, psychological, and spiritual well-being by too many power structures.
