Black Nanoparticles” in the Journal of Biological Chemistry sounded the alarm:
. . .the intake of carbon black nanoparticles. . .caused an initial inflammatory response in lung cells. The surprising
results came when the team discovered that these nanoparticles killed macrophages—immune cells in the lungs
responsible for cleaning up and attacking infections—in a way that also increases inflammation. 64
Carbon black doesn’t produce cell death by apoptosis (the cell shrinking into itself) but by
pyroptosis (bursting and spreading)—in other words, not by atrophy but by heated implosion.
The sulfur coating of soot means sulfuric acid (H SO ), the major component of acid rain,

acidification of the oceans, the Greenhouse Effect, etc. The following admission is from 1998,
though it is highly doubtful that it was actually the “first” detection:
Direct detection of total sulfuric acid (SA) has been achieved for the first time in the plume of a jet aircraft in flight.
The measurements show the same SA signatures for the case when SA was injected directly into the exhaust jet and
the case when sulfur was provided to the engine with the fuel. 65
Geophysicist J. Marvin Herndon, Ph.D., believes that the soot or carbon black posited by Jim
Lee is actually extremely toxic coal fly ash, a perfect Welsbach material 10–100 microns thick,
66
the lightest of the coal ashes (“component of flowable fill”) in plentiful supply. Captured by
electrostatic precipitators, coal fly ash is an anhydrous combustion byproduct containing
substantial amounts of silicon dioxide (SiO ), aluminum oxide (Al O ), and calcium oxide (CaO)

as well as arsenic, beryllium, boron, hexavalent chromium, cobalt, lead, manganese, mercury,
molybdenum, selenium, strontium, thallium, and vanadium—all of which are readily released
upon contact with water.
. . .Coal fly ash. . .when subjected to water renders many of its elements partially soluble in water. Some of these are
aluminum, barium, strontium, calcium, iron, magnesium, etc. These soluble elements can be measured in rainwater
and are in fact found in post-spraying rainwater. Coal fly ash has another advantage to the military — the elements
dissolved in atmospheric water make the water much more electrically conducting. This is important for movement by
electromagnetic means. 67
For more than a century, air pollution on the American East Coast has been practically
synonymous with the industrial burning of coal (lignite) and 140 million tons of coal combustion
waste translating to 70 million tons of fly ash per year, much of which is dumped into 1,100
68
unlined open storage ponds around the nation contaminating the food chain and local drinking
water with toxic heavy metals and radon. Despite the cancer, learning disabilities, neurological
disorders, birth defects, and reproductive sterility that arise around these ugly coal ash
69
impoundments, the EPA insists coal ash is a non-hazardous substance :
“Coal ash is basically soil,” says Tom Robl, a University of Kentucky geoscientist who serves as a director of the
American Coal Association. Not only is coal ash non-toxic, Robl says, it’s so safe that you could eat a brimming
70
bowlful without adverse consequences. “Feel free to eat as much coal ash as you want—it’s not toxic.”
In the same article, Forest Service biologist Dennis Lemly begs to differ: as a highly
concentrated byproduct of burning coal, coal ash is hazardous. 71
In 2015, Herndon published two peer-reviewed papers on how pivotal coal fly ash is to
geoengineering and how deleterious it is to human health. The second paper, “Evidence of Coal
Fly Ash Toxic Chemical Geoengineering in the Troposophere: Consequencies for Public
