Their primary component is a nasty chemical called dihydrogen monoxide, which is known to be the primary component of acid rain. It's not just in the contrails either, tons of this stuff is found in our very water supply. You can read more about the Evil Government Conspiracy™, and DHMO, here: http://www.dhmo.org/

You mean contrails? The contrails behind airliners is just condensed/solidified water.
The chem-trails you see behind aerobatic planes, parachutists, etc. on a not-so-everyday basis is made by Titanium Tetrachloride. The TiCl4 reacts with atmospheric water vapor to form HCl and TiO2; what you see is the TiO2 (titanium dioxide) particles. I honestly have no idea why a parachutist would want to risk breathing in concentrated HCl just so that their landings seem more "exciting" is beyond me.
