Sherry's Story
source: Sherry Malone / as submitted to Chemtrails Hall of Shame

The following courageous letter and packet of research information were written and compiled by Sherry Malone, a resident of Seattle and mother of two. Sherry became aware of the covert spraying operations through the observations and repeated alarms of her eldest daughter this past May. Although the events she describes seem extreme, they are not uncommon in this area, and have been going on for years.

I must first commend Sherry for the pragmatic manner in which she dealt with this confusing and alarming series of events. Imagine becoming aware of the Chemtrail spraying programs in such an extreme way, while your loved ones and community members are sickening and even dying around you. Then imagine being giving the first-class runaround and prepackaged denial by the same government and public health agencies who are mandated to help with such problems.

In my opinion Sherry is a hero. She represents what we used to be in this country: a red-blooded citizen of America; someone not afraid to stand up and do something when she sees wrongdoings being committed. She committed thousands of dollars of her own for sample testing, and contacted many public officials trying to shed light on the problems. Compare this to the typical sheeplike 'consumers' that most of us have become, who will turn a blind eye to the most heinous of deeds perpetrated by our leaders as long as their basic needs continue to be met.

In summary, I would like to personally thank Sherry for her courage and determination in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. It is people like her that give us hope in an otherwise dismal future.

sincerely, Bruce Conway - Lightman / Chemtrails Hall of Shame

Letter to Lightwatcher - Chemtrails Hall of Shame - 8/22/2002

Dear Bruce,
Wednesday, May 8, 2002 at 10:00 a.m. I received a phone call from my oldest daughter to go outside and look at the sky, that 'It' was happening. My father and I went outside to look and saw six white jets streaking over our property heading south at about 10,000 feet. The contrails they left were thick and silvery white, and did not disappear as they should have. It was a crystal clear blue day and the trails they left began to plume and drift and slowly paint the sky a deep shade of slate gray. My father, a retired Boeing physicist, and the ultimate skeptic, exclaimed, "my God, they're spraying something up there."

We continued watching for another 15 minutes while the blue sky transformed before our eyes. As the sky changed colors we noticed the temperature drop, and both commented on how cold it was getting. Something was very wrong, eerie and unsettling. I went to the back of the house that overlooked Redondo bay to see if there were trails or jets there. What I saw frightened me to the very core of my being.

Over the bay the sun was haloed with a massive, (and I mean massive) black ring bordered with a thumbnail band of rainbow colors. It filled the entire Puget Sound sky over Seattle, Des Moines, Tacoma, Gig Harbor, and the Islands. I nearly fainted at the sight and fell to my knees yelling for my dad to come and see. He came around the corner, tears welled in his eyes as he said, "Good God in heaven, now I know they're spraying something." I ran into the house choking back the bile. I grabbed the phone book shaking uncontrollably and called NOAA. I wanted answers.

When I got through to their meteorology department and began expressing my concerns, the fellow on the line began typing fast and furious. I blurted out what I was seeing, and cried into the phone that the military was spraying something in the air. The black ring around the sun was immense and he should step outside to see it. He laughed and said he could see it just fine from where he was and simply stated, "that's a sundog ma'am." I said no, that is no sundog. Sundogs are not black. They're spraying something in the sky, trails are everywhere. He said the military was conducting 'exercises' in the area and there was nothing to be alarmed about, that what I was seeing were just contrails.

He calmly and methodically began explaining about ice crystals forming at certain altitudes, and asked how I knew they were military jets? How high are they, how fast are they going, can you see any markings on the planes, did I have instruments to take humidity and temperature readings etc. He said vapor trails can last for hours, that it was common and assured me that everything was normal. I hung up the phone and stepped back outside.

The massive 'sundog' now had a giant black X over it and the jets buzzed my house from all directions. The crystal clear day had become a murky white mess with aluminum can hues, grid patterns littered the sky. I sat in my kitchen wiping the tears, terrified as I watched this unfold before my eyes. This assault over Seattle/ Tacoma and the surrounding areas went on for over 9 hours straight. Throughout the day we had also noticed the planes at Sea Tac airport seemed to be grounded while the military was overhead. As soon as the jets flew out of the area one plane after the other would take off from Sea Tac. Surely the FAA knew what was going on.

That evening the skin on my face, arms and feet burned and itched. My sunglasses I'd worn all day lay on the table covered with tiny resinous flecks. I shuttered at the thought of what it might be. What I had witnessed that day was a crime against humanity, against nature, against the very world in which I lived. I will never be the same again, I am forever changed. Sadly, I had been in such complete and utter shock, it never occurred to me to take one single picture.

I began researching chemtrails on the internet, and sent out several S.O.S. e-mailings to complete strangers telling them what I had witnessed. My mail was forwarded all over the world and the response I got back was incredible, this phenomenon was happening everywhere.

May 12th, 2002, Mother's Day, I woke up at 6:00 a.m. locked and loaded. Three cameras sat on my kitchen table waiting for the jets to return. Trails were already laid out over the bay, they must have been at it all night. I stepped onto my deck and was greeted by the rising sun circled with another 'dark halo'. It wasn't nearly as black like it had been the other day and one tenth the size but menacing just the same. Maybe my call to NOAA had done something after all. I grabbed my cameras and within minutes the white jets returned assaulting the skies over Redondo. This time I was ready for them and took pictures all morning long. The sky had started out blue at sunrise but their trails quickly annihilated that. Before long the metallic white haze filled the entire bay, not a patch of blue sky could be seen.

The spraying stopped at precisely 12:30 that afternoon. Church was letting out, the beaches started to fill with families celebrating the holiday. Barbeques were lit, jet skis roared off in the distance, there were sounds of laughter echoing throughout the cove. Slowly, the haze began to lift and the day started to look nice again. The military jets had vanished, and the seagulls had ventured back into the air. The boaters trolling by waved cheerfully, happy the fog was finally burning off. I thought 'those sneaky bastards, they left right before church was over. No one had a clue as to what went on for the first 6 hours that morning.

At around 4:00 p.m. the jets came back and resumed blanketing the skies overhead. The crowds were thinning on the beach somewhat, but the drop in temperature sent them scattering to their cars. This time a gold mist began rising off the water, and could be seen in every direction, down every beach line, and totally engulfed the islands. I had lived on the waterfront for 10 years and had never seen anything like it before. I buttoned up my house figuring we were breathing that mist, whatever it was. When nightfall came and my cat wanted in, I had no choice but to open the door. Instantly I was assaulted with a foul smelling stench blowing in from the outside air. It was thick and heavy and reeked of chemicals I couldn't even begin to identify. I slammed the door shut fearful of what that chemical might be and wondered who in the hell was doing this.

My 10 year old daughter was the first to get ill. At around 10:00 p.m. she began shivering and complained of flu like symptoms. She had an intense headache, body spasms, coughing, nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, tingling lips, burning itchy skin. I took her temperature, but there was only a slight fever. I held her all night in my arms while she cried, "why am I always sick mama?" I broke down and cried with her, finally realizing I now knew why she was always sick. It was true, her school attendance had never been worse. I thought back on all the days she'd missed from school, all those flu bugs, one right after the other. I had made the statement all throughout the school year that she was sick with the flu every other week. Laying there holding and rocking her that evening, I realized we were probably being poisoned.

The following morning I awoke with the same symptoms and there was the god awfullest stench to the air outside. The sky was right out of the devil's back yard, the clouds were extremely low, with an artificial cottage cheese texture. I was so frightened and getting sicker by the minute, even the cats were looking cross eyed and staggered when they walked. The symptoms were like no flu I had ever experienced. Throughout the morning I became more forgetful, disoriented, dizzy, my mouth and tongue tingled with a metallic taste. I took my daughter back to bed with me and we convalesced trying to recover, but we just kept getting sicker. By Wednesday, I called the poison control center and inquired about aluminum and barium poisoning I'd read about on the internet. I gave the receptionist my symptoms and she said aluminum was every where, there was no escaping it. I told her about the military jets flying in the area, but she didn't believe me.

By Thursday, I was totally incoherent. I couldn't carry on the simplest of conversations. I heard on the news that Artondale elementary school had been closed from an unidentified contaminant right across the bay from us in Gig Harbor. Students and teachers were complaining of illness and fatigue. Gig Harbor was only 15 miles across the water from us, we could see it from our kitchen window. The Artondale school was located 2 or 3 blocks from Puget Sound on the other side of the Narrows Bridge. Curious as to what the symptoms were I called the Health Department in Pierce County to find out.

I talked to the investigating case manager, Dave Delong at Pierce County DSHS. He rattled off the symptoms students and staff were experiencing at the school and it wasn't long before the nape of my neck started to rise. When he mentioned tingling and burning lips I gasped, our symptoms were identical to those across the bay. Before we hung up I told him to check out Chemtrails on the internet and to watch for contrails that persisted and lingered in the sky. Incidentally, Artondale elementary was closed 4 days after the spraying on Mothers Day, May 12. We had to get out of there, it was then that I knew I'd have to sell my house.

My daughter and I were getting sicker still and the notion came to buy air filters, and to tape up the doors and windows. I grabbed my checkbook and keys, hesitated, and then completely forgot why I was leaving. Hours passed while I was trying to remember what I needed to do-why I needed to leave totally eluded me. Around 2:00 a.m. I remembered the air filters. Had it not been for the sound of my daughter crying I would have forgotten again.

Whatever was sprayed was lingering in the house, the air filters had no effect. In one coherent moment I packed up my child and took her out of town. Amazingly her symptoms disappeared within three hours of leaving the house. I too, began feeling better, and left her with my oldest daughter for the entire weekend. By Saturday, my father who lived on the bluff behind me was stricken with the same symptoms and was rushed to the emergency room at Providence Hospital. Within an hour of breathing clean oxygenated hospital air, his symptoms disappeared also. Honestly, neither of us wanted to leave. 7 hours later he checked out with a clean bill of health.

On the way back as we approached the bay area, both of us noticed a distinct change in the air. No longer was there the sweet scent of fir and pine trees but fumes of burning metal. A bitter metallic taste started to coat our tongues and our lips began to burn and tingle. We looked up at the sky and sure enough we saw the jets spewing their trails overhead.

I spent the entire weekend airing the house out with fans and running the air filters preparing for my little girl to come home. Sunday evening I went to go get her in hopes she'd be well enough to return to school the following day. We arrived home at 7:00 p.m. and within 3 hours the symptoms returned and she crawled into my bed crying once again. I thought, "no this can't be happening, please God not again." I held and rocked her all night long while her little body shivered with spasms. Again there was only a slight fever.

The following morning, still sick complaining of flu like symptoms, I called her aunt and asked if she could stay there for the week. I packed her up once again and drove her 20 miles north to my sisters house. Amazingly the symptoms disappeared within just a couple of hours of leaving the house. It was then I decided to hire a chemical consultant and have the soil and water tested around my property.

My quest for the truth became a full time job and continues to this day. Local and national medias had not mentioned one single word about military operations in the area or the peculiar markings in the sky. Even the massive 'rare' sundogs didn't warrant news coverage though I was told when I phoned the stations they had been flooded with calls. Who was behind this, and why was it being covered up?

My internet search came up with the following: A Global Weather Modification experiment to combat global warming involving 14 NATO countries. A Sun Shield to protect us from harmful radiation due to ozone depletion. A Missile Shield to detect incoming enemy attacks. Scalar technology, a new weapons system involving electromagnetic energy. H.A.A.R.P, the High Altitude Auroral Research Project in Alaska developing communications and a new weapons system. According to HAARP patents the project requires spraying barium in the atmosphere to increase conductivity. SDI or Star Wars, a defense project promised by the President. Population Control, our government is spraying us with poison? The 'New World Order' (Illuminati), an elite secret society shadowing our government striving for world domination. The alien theory, creating artificial cloud cover concealing the spaceships visiting earth. There are many more bizarre and interesting theories to explain the spraying but these were in the top 10.

I was leaning towards weather modification, one only had to look outside and see the weather was behaving strangely. The temperatures have fluxed between 48 and 90 degrees from day to day. Also uncommon for this area, it even snowed once in the late spring. Drought has engulfed 1/3 of the nation, Germany is suffering from unprecedented flooding and this summer folks in Texas had catfish swimming through their living rooms. The weather modification theory fit and there was plenty of corroborating evidence to back it up. Hard evidence like military patents for powder contrails, the Welsbach Patent owned by the Hughe's Aerospace company describing reflective metals to combat global warming. And the Edward Teller document presented at the 22 International Seminar on Planetary Emergencies in '97, complete with formulas for reflective metals, deployment and cost breakdowns. The final convincing document I found is a paper written by our own air force titled, "Owning The Weather by 2025"

The chemicals and metals listed in these patents is said to absorb moisture from the atmosphere creating artificial clouds. Logic told me they would be concentrating their efforts over bodies of water to conduct their experiments. We lived directly on Puget Sound and that made us sitting ducks. I also knew that if this was indeed happening, the likelihood of stopping it was near impossible. I was glad I decided to sell my home, I felt my child's health depended on it.

Before we moved from the area I stopped by my daughters school to pick up her attendance records. She had been absent a total of 40 days since the beginning of the year. I mentioned to the nurse how concerned I was about her health and poor attendance. She replied it was higher than average, but there were a lot of viruses going around, and maybe it was mold or fungus spores. I told her it may be just a coincidence but my family had been experiencing the same symptoms as the Artondale school. We were just across the water from them. I told her about the military jets conducting 'exercises' in the area and showed her some pictures. The blank stare in her eyes said it all, I would never be able to convince one living soul.

PART II
Chemical Analysis

We were leaving, the magic of the ocean was forever gone in my eyes. Each morning when I awoke I no longer heard the seagulls bantering on my roof. Instead, I was wakened by the sounds of jets spraying overhead. No longer did I arise pulling doors and windows open breathing deeply from the fresh salt air. Instead, I woke to lingering plumes from the night before afraid to open my door. No longer could I see the magic of the otters and the whales, but instead felt a deep and profound sadness of their plight, and the spiraling trend mankind had taken. Every day I watched the dirty plumes disguised as clouds roll over the bay from the west, and I would break down and cry. I could no longer see my children's future, but instead, I saw visions of the apocalypse. I am forever changed.

It was time to find out why. I collected soil and water samples and submitted them for testing. I collected the first batch myself as too much time had passed since the gold chemical had been sprayed. I dropped the samples at a lab telling them our community was trying to restore our local frog pond. I then hired a chemical consultant to work for me on the side. I knew that the 'chain of custody' protocol needed to be kept intact just in case something was found. My chemical consultant took samples from the same areas I did and submitted them to three separate labs for analysis. I never told him about the first lab and samples. He also took a piece of my air filter and web strands that had been sent to me from Eastern Washington. Total, there were 4 labs analyzing my samples.

The first lab I submitted to on my own came back with negative results on all but one. When the project tech handed me my soil analysis for metals, she was shaking her head emphatically saying the aluminum was off the charts. I thought 'Bingo' we have a hit! She pumped me wanting to know where I lived, where we took the samples from etc. I played innocent, telling her it was from our local frog pond down south. I had several questions she could not answer about aluminum toxicity so she told me she'd have a guy call the next day who specialized in toxic metals. He never called, but she did with an apology saying they had made a mistake. The numbers should have been reported in parts per billion not parts per million. I was crushed, and slightly skeptical, she was the Project Manager, how could there have been a mistake? I found myself wondering if someone had gotten to her.

I still had 3 labs to go and my consultant continued to work on the side. I could hardly wait for those test results. The info started trickling in a little at a time, my consultant would call once a week to discuss various results as they came in. There were no hits on aluminum, barium, or titanium in or around the frog pond. Butthere were elevated levels of selenium, manganese, and cadmium. Manganese was off the charts he said.

There were also two 'Hot' chemicals in the water. Endosulphan 1 and benzo-anthracene. In fact the benzo-anthracene was 800 times above EPA Risk Base Exposure at 860 ppms. To make a long story short, this is where we left off. We were going to further investigate the benzo-anthracene in the pond when my consultant just stopped calling me altogether. Weeks went by without hearing from him, then out of the blue he called and said he can't move forward with me as a client. He told me that his employer had found out and told him to drop my case as of now, that 'Moonlighting' went against company policy. He's been demoted and is now too scared to even meet me in a parking lot to give me the data. That was three weeks ago. I am out $3000.00, pretty much homeless, (we hate our new apartment) and back to square one with the testing. The money doesn't bother me so much, I just really want to know what made us sick.

A retired pilot friend of mine said if anyone knew anything it would be the Auburn Branch of the FAA. They do all of the flight coordination between the air force and Sea Tac airport. I called, and was routed to the military desk. What little information I did get proved invaluable. Enclosed, is the report I posted on the internet.

June 10, 2002
[In a phone conversation with tha FAA Military division an aid told me this morning that the Special Air Force jets are leaving the Seattle area next week. They stated they had been on a Top Secret classified mission and it was nearing completion. Of course they couldn't elaborate as to what that mission was, they did say they had been doing a lot of 'work' off the coast.
The FAA did mention that this was a special division of the Air Force and they had come from various areas of the country and would be leaving shortly. Sigh of relief.
She did say though that part of the 'exercises' involved simulating hijackings and response time. I very politely inquired if that was why they were painting clear skies white and putting black haloes around the sun with giant Xs. She laughed and told me I needed to talk to ROC Headquarters about that and gave me a number to call. It was disconnected.]

In wrapping this story up I need to mention a couple of other unusual things that occurred on Redondo Bay while we were still living there. On many days we could hear a low frequency boom sound. We had been hearing it for quite some time on an infrequent basis. The last three months we were there it was occurring 3 or 4 times a week. I began checking my watch when they started. I timed them at 5-15 seconds apart lasting anywhere from 1 to 10 hours. The sound was all encompassing, it seemed to be coming from everywhere: the bay, the sky, and deep from within the earth. It's been said by Begich and Manning in 'Angel's Don't Play This HAARP" that a low frequency boom sound is associated with an EM pulse. I have heard a recording of the HAARP signal recently, and my father and I both agree this is the same sound we heard in Redondo. The only difference is that it resonated through land, water and sky sounding deeper than the radio signal. But it is the same, and lasted the same length of time. Of course I can't prove any of this.

It was suggested by a debunker that maybe the sound was coming from Fort Lewis firing heavy artillery. I read a posting of the Fort Lewis itinerary and scheduled exercises and went to Redondo to have a listen. We never heard their 'Big Guns'. Fort Lewis is at least 40 miles away. I am positive that the boom sound we were hearing came from an electromagnetic wave being bounced off the ionosphere. On a couple of occasions, the massive washboard clouds were moving over the bay at the same time we were hearing the boom. Also, we have had many unexplained power outages in the area. Massive ones. When I called the power company the first time, I mentioned the military might be conducting high tech experiments in the area. The operator replied, "uh huh, we know all about those experiments ma'am." I just bet they do.

Essentially this is itmy story of Chemtrails in Seattle, the ongoing saga. I may have left out a couple of things like my father going to the hospital one other time and the trips to our pediatrician. I'm sure you already know what the doctors had to say. The spraying has been non-stop all summer and I've talked to the EPA and Dept of Ecology all to no avail. It's hard to believe our government would do this without the consent of the people, but it's true, I've seen it with my own two eyes. Without hard evidence though, I cannot prove one single word of what I've told you.

I look forward to working with you in the future. I have been a fan since the evening of May 8th 2002, when my search for the truth began and I found Lightwatcher.com.

Thank you for all of your hard work Bruce, your blessings will be many.

Sincerely,
Sherry Malone
