Whaaa...??? It's sentences like this one (and they are quite common in your posts) that make it very difficult for me to take you seriously, Gumshoeye. I truly hope you managed a bit more refinement and coherence when writing your reports as a detective. Do you mean "psyops", perchance? For someone who tries to speak authoritatively on the subject, I'd expect you to at least spell it correctly. These common lapses in the mechanics of your communications do not instill much confidence in their content. You know, attention to detail and all that...

Honestly 15 years ago I must confess I would have thought Mike P was a glutten for attention as well as scratching my head in wonder as to how and why he could possibly think anyone would take him seriously. I would have summarily dismissed him, his claims and his alleged evidence. However after my own experience and since connecting with mutitudes of individials over the years who have had the same kinds of experience. Some on this forum even, I would say I cannot verify or deny that he has hoaxed, fabricated or lied about anything. I dont support him, I dont even like his research, and I rarely watch his videos although I am familliar with all the evidence he presents. I think for you to say presumably "faked" might be a better postion from where I am standing because that is your opinion. That stated as if its a fact is where we disagree. You cant know it, unless you were there perpetrating the hoax on him or with him. You might think you know based on some opinion of yourself and firm trust and belief in that opinion as it relates to your discenment skillset, but again that is no differnent than anyone who is sure they saw a Sasquatch or claims to have interacted with them, They being just as convinced of that fact. Does that make it a fact? I dont know. I could say its a known fact that watermellon is yellow inside but as soon as you cut into it or look at with some type of scanning device it changes to red. You cant prove it wrong untill some way of observing that is invented that proves its not or vice verse. Until such a time its simply and assumption and certainly one can have a strong opinion on the matter. Have you always preceded into things in your life based on facts or have you had to make assumptions? Hmmmm

^^ Im assuming (based of your reply) that you assumed that I go through life assuming things , which essentially is my point, and so we all do. To use your analogy the assumption that the car will stay on the side of the road (its supposed to) is not fact until you pass it and its been observed. If I told you that was the case you would make assumptions that I was telling the truth had you not been there, by perhaps looking at my car and deducting that, or going to the place where it passed and seeing no signs of a skid other car parts. In Mikes case all we know are the claims... they are not facts and when we paint the guy or anyone over with facts relating to his claims without say oh ...having been there isnt that a bit disengenous? I mean if he was the only one then we might do that, but he well isnt. Not everyone starts a youtube channel but he did and many came out and ripped the guy as if that was a sign he was full of crap because it was attention getting and maybe even monetary seeking... Didnt KB write a book , havent others, many have not or even spoke openly with anyone other than those they feel could understand, and well we can only assume there are those who just wont. To go back to the car...99.9 % or more of the time that car is going to stay on the road where it is supposed to and certainly noone is reporting the times they go into the woods and dont see or interact with a SSQ, just as we dont report yep we passed 50 cars today and none veered. But we know it happens because we have testimony and evidence so long as we trust the evidence which is another assumption. So really it is not different on many levels. In the case of SSQ either we have hundreds or more people saying the same things (and no they arent all on this forum or any forum for that matter) so either all these people are making it up or its really happening to one degree of the another.. Do you think Mike interacted with a SSQ or something that wants him to believe its a SSQ at any time? and are you satified with KB Hunters claims as being accurate ? Or do you lump him in with Mike... I mean it sounds about the same as how Mike started out in his begininings with his accounts If so then have we not crossed the SSq is fact barrier at least here in our little world. If not then its still just an assumption because the facts are there are lots of people talking about it and many for which we trust presumably (oh thats an assumption as well isnt it).

That would be an interesting show to be sure. I truly feel the segments where they are talking to the witnesses are far more interesting than the banter between them while they have a small army walking around in the woods at night trying to pretend that they are alone. I often wonder how often they are watched by something like a hermit in the woods and have no idea about it.
