I'm having trouble seeing the description "former prison guard" as indicative of any degree of probity, or of the opposite.Flogging Jason wrote:It seems tough to imagine that 2 people(especially law officers) would make this kind of claim only to have it be a hoax.
And now there was no doubt that the trees were really moving - moving in and out through one another as if in a complicated country dance. ('And I suppose,' thought Lucy, 'when trees dance, it must be a very, very country dance indeed.')

Whether active or retired they still carry a certain set of social expectations. I'm not here to argue about it. I'm just saying they have more to lose by lying than average Joe cryptophile.s1m0n wrote:I'm having trouble seeing the description "former prison guard" as indicative of any degree of probity, or of the opposite.Flogging Jason wrote:It seems tough to imagine that 2 people(especially law officers) would make this kind of claim only to have it be a hoax.
I still think that no matter how concrete the evidence there will still be hoardes of naysayers and nonbelievers(even though new species are discovered everyday) simply because the issue of bigfoot has been so controversial for so long. It'll be the same when we finally make(public) contact with extraterrestrials and when we find Nessie too. People simply won't believe it no matter how true.
I'm not easily duped....but I know: The Truth is Out There

Well the only expert they are allowing to see the body, Tom Biscardi, has already been involved in one Bigfoot hoax.Flogging Jason wrote: It seems tough to imagine that 2 people(especially law officers) would make this kind of claim only to have it be a hoax.

A jail guard? We're talking Lyndie England & her boyfriend Charles Graner here. He was a PA jailguard in civilian life, as well as at Abu Ghraib. If that sends any message, the message is "Bully. Close-set eyes. Not especially smart, with gusts up to 'retarded'. Failed cop-school."Flogging Jason wrote: Whether active or retired they still carry a certain set of social expectations.

So why--if they've got a big carcass in a deep-freeze--would they only release photo and DNA evidence? Is there a problem with letting estimable witnesses actually have a look at the stiff? Something smells more like fish than ape...Whitton and Dyer plan to unveil what they say is DNA and photo evidence of the discovery in Palo Alto, California, in conjunction with a group called Searching for Bigfoot Inc.
A photograph on that group's Web site shows what appears to be the body of a large, hairy creature with an ape-like face, stuffed into a large freezer.

4-5 years ago I met Scotsman in San Sebastian de La Gomera (Canary Islands) who claimed to know personally the man who invented the Loch Ness monster myth...Innocent Bystander wrote:Nessie was made into haggis, years ago.
When I sailed through the Caledonian canal a few years ago on my old boat, the Naomi J., I stopped at the Loch Ness monster museum. I noted that of all the so called "observations" of the Loch Ness monster, none were ever made by a seaman in spite of the thousands of ocean going vessels (including my own) that have passed through the Loch. In other words, nobody who is used to being at sea and observing the surface of the sea in all its different moods has ever claimed to have seen the monster.
