Which tests are these? What do you want debunked? Name your top 10 pieces of evidence and I will tell you why I don't believe each one of them, individually, clearly and in detail. I will not necessarily know an exact single reason why I disbelieve each one, there may be a range of possibilities, all of which I believe to be more likely than Bigfoot existing. I DO NOT have to prove them in error unless I wish to prove Bigfoot does not exist. I do not wish to prove Bigfoot does not exist, as that is impossible. I wait for your list.

JDL, thanks for the comment. Peter has pushed the 'bigfoot ball forward' most of his life, and this is the time for some encouragement which is different from condonement. We don't need to get down on him since he has suffered much already, and this could kill an old man. We have all done things we regret, the goal is to not do them anymore which could taint all of our works as one member said. This is the time for 'bigfooters' to rally for one of our own. If you want to write him a letter, the let me know. Below is Peter's letter: Dear George, Thanks your note and good wishes. Much appreciated. Yes, I have had some legal problems in this last year and I see that they have now leaked out. And, yes, there has been a great deal of stress, to where 2013 was not a good year for me or, with severe illness on the part of my partner, for her either, this too in addition to a scamming and sever financial loss on the part of my family Normally I do not rise to making making excuses. Don't complain, don't explain, has been a motto of mine for many years. Nor shall I now attempt to publicly rebut the Forum statements, other than with this latter to you, which same you can quote me on if you wish and which same I swear to you, on my honor, is absolutely true. 1. I have never had $85 in a bank account in my whole life. The most have ever had is $25,000 and as of now, in my 89th as I am now (with the 23rd August the first day of my ninetieth!) and so with little chance of recouping it, legal expenses have drained that to zero. 2. All of my overseas trips were to the country of Nepal and all (ALL) were to work in wildlife conservation projects for which I was not paid a cent in salary, or for airfares (except, I think, once, as a gift) or any personal expenses. All of the projects I worked on, personally, in the field, were sponsored by two highly reputable, registered US foundations which same were, at the end of a twenty year series of successful projects, thoroughly satisfied with same. 3. As to my financial and leagl problems ....when I was 64 I applied for Social Security but, because I had not contributed enough in taxes-not having been in this country long enough to do so-I was not eligible for same. However, the Social Security people told me that until I was eligible, in other words when I had contributed enough in income tax (which I did achieve, recently) I could draw a substitute allowance called SSI. What they did not tell me and which is not to this day written up in any of the SS rulings, is that one may not draw this if one is out of the US at any time for more than 30 days. Which, for my wildlife conservation projects I was, many times to where in the end-and this is just an educated guess-some envious little person informed Social Security and they looked into it and came after me. There were several charges, all of which they told me would be dropped (they were) if I would plead guilty to one and make appropriate financial restitution, which, on the advice of my lawyers, I did. It has been an unfortunate affair, George and while it lasted very stressful for me and my family. However, one or two good things came out of it. One was the extraordinary support I received from friends all over the world, with many from people in the Bigfoot field. The other is that at the end of this year-after a period of "so called good behavior-I will be able to have the while thing expunged from record...and get on with my life and put it behind me. And this, as of now, is all that I have to say about the matter. For your interest but also in regard to the above... at the end of my twenty five years work in wildlife conservation work in Nepal, via a continuous (every winter) ten year, ten season series of wildlife conservation projects, all of them based on a program I designed called WATER FOR WILDLIFE and consisting of the renovation of lakes (two) ground-water, waterholes (two) dry river bed waterholes (six) natural spring renovation (1) fish habitat creation (1) and a crocodile preservation project, (1) I have now closed down my conservation work in that country. My health is good enough but my energy levels are not just up to living in tents, and all day hiking and native food any more, as well as, with malaria (eight times) behind me, and amoebic dysentery (twice) and hookworm, and dengue fever (twice) and some broken bones, I feel that at my age I might be pushing my luck a bit now. So, as of last winter, and with more than fifty years in the little Kingdom (and nine in India before that) I feel it is time, as they say, to fold the tents and call it a day... which is what I am doing now. Sorry if I have been a bit long winded here...but in the legal matter I feel that it is is important that someone (just you George, no one else at this time) should know the truth, in addition-as above- the reality of where and how I spent those "millions" it is suggested I might have tucked away... yes, in a tent, in the tropical jungles of a far away country! All the best George.. I am here now, embedded likeyou on the Oregon coast...so keep in mind a visit if you wish. For the moment, your friend >>> Peter B.

Bhutan, Snelgrove Destination truth, "The Bhutan Yeti," 4 Nov 2009 Josh Gates in Bhutan, Himalayas, on another hunt for the Yeti. Hair samples gathered during the investigation revealed DNA from an unknown primate. ^ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Destination_Truth_episodes The analysis: Josh Gates 2009 with Dr. Melba Ketchum http://www.bigfootencounters.com/interviews/gates-ketchum.htm "Unknown primate DNA" on Google : needle in a haystack. I'm looking for those with some credibility -- usually, I only reference Dr. Ketchum in my signature. ....... I did watch the show found thru Norseman's post #17, Snelgrove Lake with Curt Nelson & Jeff Meldrum. Monster Quest - Sasquatch Attack, Nov 2007. Apparently, all of you have seen it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5adeIs_7D54 I watched the whole thing. I was hopeful about the findings of Drs Nelson and Rogers. However, Drs Meldrum & Disotell were not encouraging with nothing to see there. Curt Nelson tested the DNA, said yes, Human dna, it had one nucleotide polymorphism ... that nucleotide that was different, it was one shared with chimpanzees. Hair morphology, Dr. Lynn Rogers, Wildlife Research Institute, visual examination of hair: "It looked human to me," but no medulla, uncut tapered tip. "Almost like it came from a wild human ... I'll be really interested to see what the DNA shows." Disotell: I didn't get DNA; there is no result (scroll to 39:25). Meldrum: Samples were too degraded. Has the Snelgrove cabin been revisited since 2007? These searches are time consuming. Not sure I'll keep looking.

You start off stating that politics if off topic--then list a bunch of gov't agencies you infer to have the power to cover up any evidence...but you won't tolerate any politics!

That wasn't the question. The question was a simple and clear one. "So, there are no actual written, official test results that anybody can actually see, or has actually seen, showing "unknown primate". Do you agree with this sentence or not?" If you don't agree with it, please state simply which cases you believe contradict this. I have made no straw men.. Due to your reluctance to state your position clearly without obfuscation I have sometimes outlined a position and asked you if it is yours. I have not made any claims or outlined any positions of my own. If you have any direct and clear questions to ask me, please do so, and I will answer them clearly and directly. Then you will not have to make up positions you claim I hold to give yourself something to argue against.

The dude in that last video seemed really lost. The light source is of course the car he's in. Nothing bio-luminescent about it. And then he's got some thermal camera, but does not get out of the car to use it?? I am of the opinion (having not experienced this particular phenomena) that there is no bio-luminescence. Its all tapetum lucidium (perhaps active with very small amounts of light). Best I can make out, BF would have to have re-developed this trait, as ancient ancestors did not seem to have it. But FWIW, Neanderthal had very large eyes compared to ours, suggesting that it too was nocturnal, maybe there has been enough time for this sort of thing to develop.

What has someone dodging taxes got to do with this subject and why is someones personal life splashed over the general discussion part of this forum ? What is wrong with you Drew, seriously ? Get a life !!!!
