...the conspiracy theorist just admitted himself that he can't find the wire in the original frame, but he can find it in the extra-compressed YouTube version. It's still a wire though, according to him.
Hilarious! One of the cardinal rules of photographic interpretation is that not everything in the photo is an object in the scene. I always thought that was a no-brainer, but apparently some people really are that dissociated from the nature of photography.
It just goes to show that having eyes doesn't make you a photo analyst any more than having hands makes you Michelangelo.

Hahahaha, the conspiracy theorist just admitted himself that he can't find the wire in the original frame, but he can find it in the extra-compressed YouTube version. It's still a wire though, according to him. That just makes me laugh. Sad thing is Bert, when I try to pin him down on this he just tries to change topic, saying "Ah, but you can't see the antenna either!" If I wanted to I could find hidden wires all over the place in this frame.

Yeah, I'm not sure what he means to say with the antenna. I'm not seeing an antenna in either version anyways, so I'm not sure where he pulled his antenna from.

Finally, I'm finished with explaining how it is a compression artifact and not a wire. I've worked on this for about two hours, getting the crops and the zoomed in size right and stuff. www.maj.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=1206253 (LONG LOAD, the PNG file is 1.5MB!) EDIT: Please comment. I have my hopes up for constructive comments from here. As opposed to YouTube. EDIT2: So far, he found two other "wires". From what I've seen so far they're just more of the same. Oh well, guess it'll get late tonight. EDIT3: Well, it won't get late tonight. He's gotten himself blocked for a week right when things started to get interesting. Oh well, better luck next week.

... so I'm not sure where he pulled his antenna from. Well, I have a few ideas.

Who drew the black line for the antenna? It should be parallel with the PLSS, i.e. tilted ~20 degrees to the left. I can kinda-sorta see it (I think) in the high-quality screenshot.
