I voted yes, because it's more fun that way. Plus, when I had kids in middle school, I had to do a "book talk" (which means you get a handful of delinquents for 45 minutes who, theoretically, have read the book on which you are now leading a discussion) about a book called Loch which was about a kid named "Loch" after Loch Ness. And Loch gets messed up with some critters who turn out to live in Lake Champlain, actually, one of whom bites a guy's feet off. So, how could I not believe?

I thought the story had a surprising and sweet angle to it that law enforcement wanted to protect Nessie. I wondered whether the law enforcement officer just didn't want to see anything or anyone hurt or if he had a bone to pick with the big game hunter.

Whoa there folks...I am the Loch Ness Monster. Mutepoint's thread finally has led me to reveal myself.

I want to know who the four impostors are. Seriously, you all give me a bad reputation. :swear:

That's 5 Loch Ness Monsters already. We've brought back the California Condor. Let's set up an involuntary Captive Breeding Program for Nessies!

"Scottish Cops". Wow. Culture-shock. Locally I imagine they would be described as "The Bass Tarding Polliss."

Tell us something.: Long ago, I was told that I faked iTrad whistle work very well. I took that comment to heart. 20 years of private lessons - and many, many hours of rehearsal later - I certainly hope I have improved...

I consider Misha Somerville, of MK Whistle fame, to be an expert on the subject in question, as he designed his first low D, in a shack, on the shores of the infamous Loch. (Really...) He MUST have seen or heard something...

Cheers.

The loch ness monster is nothing more than a fiberglass torpedo shape object with a small electric motor hooked to it.

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.
