Welcome aboard.Hi - I sometimes amuse (and infuriate) myself by looking at conspiracies etc on the net. I stumbled on your site and found myself in a calm oasis of sense. I'll rest here a while.
Welcome to Metabunk you will find several participants here with military and aviation experience . . .Hello everyone, My name is Ron. I am originally from Jacksonville, FL. Joined the Air force in 1999 and got stationed in Delaware and been here ever since.
I first found this site looking for explanations for the "burning snow" videos recently.
I am a very skeptical person, I hardly take any one's word for it. I research just about everything my eyes gaze upon. Not in an effort to prove wrong or argue, as many of my friends claim. However, for me to just know and yes possibly relay what I have found to my friends so they don't look like idiots.
I am a Christian and do believe the Bible to be the infallible Word of God. To most skeptics, this is my one flaw. Which I wear like a badge of honor. However, I am still a very scientific, data driven, test in the lab orientated type person.
I hope to be a major contributor to this website's efforts as I do have much experience in aviation, and military environments. I am also currently a student seeking a degree in Homeland Security and Emergency Management, which is under the umbrella of Criminal Justice.

Welcome aboard!!! . . you might want to review our posting guidelines . . . they will help you debunk issues . . . https://www.metabunk.org/threads/posting-guidelines.2064/Hi all,
It's great to have found this forum.
I am an active member of the astronomical community and most of my interests are related to astrophotography and software development. Recently I came across some of the absurd claims being made by a certain Mr. Scott Waring, claims which I found most upsetting as they appear utterly ignorant and serve only to misinform the community. Whilst reading over the www.news.com.au article on Mr. Waring I noticed a link this very forum -- a breath of fresh air in a landscape filled with misleading and unsubstantiated claims of ridiculous proportion.
Although I am yet to ascertain as to whether Mr. Warings ignorance is due to a lack of critical thinking skills or whether he is intentionally ignorant purely to appease his own needs, I feel that as a member of the astronomical community and the science community as a whole, it is my duty to question, investigate and where possible, debunk his outrageous reports of UFO's, alien structures/buildings, intentional cover-ups by NASA and so on.
I am glad to have found a forum upon which I can take the opportunity to methodically and systematically review each and every one of Mr Warings and indeed others claims of such phenomena, with input and assistance from other open-minded individuals. Mr Waring and others like him refuse to publish any comments made which dare even approach the point of questioning or refuting their claims, making this forum a very valuable resource. It is important to inform and educate the community so that they do not buy into the misinformation spread by these individuals.
Welcome to Metabunk!!Hello, I found this site from a Facebook group called "Contrail Science and Facts - Stop the Fear Campaign." I'm from South Dakota, one of the many "flyover states" and I've been seeing lingering contrails since at least the early '90s, I never once questioned what they were because I understand how they form. Many late night wikiwalks have also taught me that they are a form of cirrus cloud, and that for the few days after 9/11, when the planes were grounded, the temperature actually increased because of the decreased albedo. I'm just happy that there's a site like this on the internet. I'm a college student studying for biology but still conflicted about what to go for, after learning more about GMOs I've kind of been leaning towards agricultural biotech. I'm also very keen on futurism and am a transhumanist, especially when it comes to augmenting the human mind to store more information and the blending of biology and technology. Anyway, I think that's about enough about me, I tend to be a lurker but I may comment if something piques my interest.
Their is A LOT of nonsense on the web these days...
Welcome Victor! A good place to start if you have not already is to review our posting guidelines . . . https://www.metabunk.org/threads/posting-guidelines.2064/Hi, Victor here. Long time Skeptic (the James Randi, Michael Shermer type, not the 'co-opted the name to spread pseudo science and paranoia' type). Just found this site. Looks cool!
Welcome Henri, please review our posting guidelines and enjoy your participation! https://www.metabunk.org/threads/posting-guidelines.2064/Hi,

As for hobby is gardening, music and bonsai ecosystem-study.
Welcome.Hi, came back here after being directed by my brother who wanted to debunk my 'chemtrail' 'conspiracy theory'.
Welcome to Metabunk! Enjoy your participation.Hello everyone I saw some Alex Jones disinformation debunked here and thought I should join.

Thanks! I missed it.
Welcome Ole Timer! You might like to review our posting guidelines when you get a chance to stay out of trouble . . . https://www.metabunk.org/threads/posting-guidelines.2064/Good day all metabunkerites,or whatever term is more common.
I go by jaydeehess on most forums now although I had other handles several years ago. I began my posting on forums at theblacklist.com around 1997 or so. Tried Pravda.Ru and pilots for truth. The later accused me of being from "the government loyalsit" site. It took a few requests but they finally informed me that meant JREF, which I then signed up on shortly before being bannedf by Rob Balsamo from PfT.
I saw this site referred to on JREF and after reading a few threads decided to sign up.
I have a diploma in electronic technology, worked for Transport Canada for just under ten years which had me doing repair and maintenance on ground equipment in aircraft comm and nav as well as assisting radar techs. I spent 18 months in the high Arctic as both comm/nav tech and repair and maintenance of ground meteorological equipment including the radiosonde tracking equipment.
Owned a hardware store for five years, worked as a transmitter tech for TV Ontario (provincial public broadcaster) for another five years, and have now been at a small TV station owned by a large cableco, for 18 years.
Do the math, I'm old.
Now, hopefully my stints on other forums does not affect my being able to stay polite even if presented with support for utterly ridiculous theories. I do believe that I am up to it though. Mama always told me to be polite.
Done!Welcome Ole Timer! You might like to review our posting guidelines when you get a chance to stay out of trouble . . . https://www.metabunk.org/threads/posting-guidelines.2064/
Good day all metabunkerites,or whatever term is more common.
