Sam, I generally don't like referencing Wiki, but they have a good write up on condensation trails here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrail

And here is another Wiki article on "chemtrails", this sentence addresses your concern above:

"The rate at which contrails dissipate is entirely dependent on weather conditions and altitude. If the atmosphere is near saturation, the contrail may exist for some time. Conversely, if the atmosphere is dry, the contrail will dissipate quickly.[4]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemtra...spiracy_theory

Most of the theory behind this is covered in high school chemistry, now I realize that some may have not taken chemistry but it really is pretty basic. I hope these articles allay your concerns.
