Is clothing tax deductible? If I spent a few weeks in Area X I could possibly claim back six figures in soiled underpants.

No offense taken. But I will take the word of the folks I work with over any of you people... YMMV Also why didn't any scientist swarm the original PGF film site after the footage was released. The reasoning behind why the film hasn't been dup'd is because in the real world, BF isn't taken seriously. Most people have real problems. Santa clause, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth fairy carry more importance.... The BF ecosystem has a very small niche in the grand scheme of things. So don't buy anything I am saying... I feel the same way about allot of the things that are posted as "fact" here concerning BF. I do try to ask as many questions and read as much as I can about the phenomena. Also if you read up about Patterson, I have yet to read anything that remotely would convince anyone that he was a genuine person. But regardless, in a few years I bet someone will start quoting Ketchum as well, about the validity of everything BF. Also if the folks at Henson Production Company said it can be done, I will roll with their opinion... Can or could? Leaving Munns analysis aside for a moment? That the technology didn't exist at that time to have stretchable fabric, etc............ It's 1967, and two cowboys want to hoax a Bigfoot movie. How are THEY going to accomplish it? Well, it's not a simple gorilla costume, so that means they too would need to go to Hollywood to garner support from those within the industry to accomplish this. Patterson can be as shady as he wants, but without help? This project is going no where. So let's say he gets a major studio to back him. And they make the suit and find some giant fellow to stuff in it. Then comes the next problem........ we know where the film site is, there were people at the film site following the shooting of the film. How many make up artists, and special effects guys would have to be present on a movie set to make this happen? And yet nobody finds evidence of anybody being there but Patty, 3 horses and two men. And to add doubt to this hypothesis, in the almost 50 years since the PGF was filmed? How did the movie studio keep this under wraps for this long? How many people at that studio would be involved in making this happen? 5? 10? 20? And how many people within that studio who were not directly involved would have known about it? 50? 100? The whole staff? Here is the thing....... I'm not going to say that creating Patty in 1967 is impossible. Although I find Munns analysis compelling. But what I will say is impossible is that three cowboys (Bob H.) and a gorilla suit accomplished this. And it's also impossible that if these men had major studio help in Hollywood that we wouldn't know about it by now..........somebody somewhere would have bragged about it in the coffee lounge. Or went to the press. Or a greedy CEO at the studio would have wanted his studio's name plastered all over the thing once it become so popular. If what your saying is true? Then in this case the skeptic has to prove his alternate hypothesis workable. The best we have heard is the altered philip morris costume and Bob H. in the suit.........and it isn't all that great. I don't put much stock in photos or video anyhow, but IF Patty is a hoax? I haven't heard anything that makes me shake my head yes. But if a major studio came out and admitted it and had collaborating evidence, like a suit or pictures of Patty walking around a warehouse? They had to test the suit right? Well then that would be compelling....... Also, scientists didn't swarm the site because they saw the video and ripped it to shreds. Apes don't have breasts, female apes don't have sagitaral crests, so forth and so on......
