Do you think that is true ?
Nope, you aren't keeping that a secret. How long contrails last is dependent upon conditions in the atmosphere such as temperature, humidity and wind sheer. Commercial aviation routes will give you that grid-like pattern on days when atmospheric conditions favor contrails sticking around, widening like cirrus clouds and actually forming together in one big hazy cloud. It's ice and nothing sinister IMHO.
