Reddish stuff in the tub?

OK, I couldn't find a thread on this anywhere on here, and I think you all might get a kick out of it. Maybe not.

I was on my lunch break at work the other day, sitting outside and enjoying the unusually nice weather. A cow-orker walked up and said something about the "chemtrails". I looked up and saw a whole bunch of jet contrails in the sky. I kind of gave the guy a funny look and asked him if he really believes in all the secret government chemtrail stuff. He assured me he did, and that's when it got really strange...

This guy told me with a straight face that the reddish stuff that you see around the bottoms of items that are sitting on the edge of your tub (shampoo bottles, etc) is a harmless chemical that didn't exist before about 1960 or so. He was unsure of the exact date. He claimed the government had released a small amount of this harmless chemical into the ecosystem in California and has been charting its spread across the country. They did this so they could understand better how chemicals could be distributed to the citizenry without their knowledge.

I gaped. I goggled. I told him I was pretty sure the red stuff was just rust, or some mineral crud left over from the evaporating water and even if it isn't rust I was almost positive it was not some government created experiment.

He wasn't buying it.

Has anyone ever heard this particular totally insane theory?
 
Huh? I just spent a few minutes trying to look up info about this and found absolutely nothing. (I did come up with some links on how to refinish a bath tub, if I ever need to.) ;)
I think you're going to have to ask the guy where he heard this. Is this some kind of David Icke nonsense?

You and me both, dude. I looked and looked, to make sure this wasn't some elaborate joke or something and also to make sure it wasn't something the government actually did and I didn't know about it. Bupkus all around.

The guy claims he had a relative involved with the program.

Hard water? Something he uses in the bathroom, soap, conditioner, etc.

OR MIND CONTROL JUICE!!!!!!!!!!!

That's funny. Revlon's new anti-dandruff mind control juice to fix split ends.

THEN WHY DOES HE HAVE SHAMPOO BOTTLES??!!?!!?! Wake up, sheeple!
 
Tell him...

The little plastic things on the ends of shoe laces are called aglets... their true purpose is... sinister!
 
I don't know. I looked some more and I can't find anything that resembles this. I've searched using several different things and have gotten absolutely nothing. It sounds to me like he's making the whole thing up. If he isn't I'd actually like to know the source just because it sounds so bizarre.

See this posting.

It's bacteria. Alas, this picture is one of my earlier attempts at photographing bacteria. I'm much better at it now, than when I took this picture, and my equipment's been somewhat upgraded. Perhaps I should, some time soon, take a fresh sample, and take pictures of it again using my better equipment and skills.

I suspect he's misremembering some biowarfare tests that were done way back then.



Testing on unwitting civilians

Medical experiments were conducted on a large scale on civilians who had not consented to participate. Often, these experiments took place in urban areas in order to test dispersion methods. Questions were raised about detrimental health effects after experiments in San Francisco, California, were followed by a spike in hospital visits; however, in 1977 the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention determined that there was no association between the testing and the occurrence of pneumonia or influenza.[55] The San Francisco test involved a U.S. Navy ship that sprayed Serratia marcescens from the bay; it traveled more than 30 miles.[55] One dispersion test involved laboratory personnel disguised as passengers spraying harmless bacteria in Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.[55]

Scientists tested biological pathogens, including Bacillus globigii, which were thought to be harmless, at public places such as subways. A light bulb containing Bacillus globigii was dropped on New York City's subway system; the result was strong enough to affect people prone to illness (also known as Subway Experiment).[56] Based on the circulation measurements, thousands of people would have been killed if a dangerous microbe was released in the same manner.[55]

A jet aircraft released material over Victoria, Texas, that was monitored in the Florida Keys.[55]
