Dude, I'm shocked, shocked, that no one wants to wonder out into the woods with you. What could possibly go wrong...... It's like the start of a thousand horror movies. You are a cheerleader for nawac for sure. It's been over a decade of research in that one area with nothing but a collections of stories and some stones so far. I tend to think that if they were going to have a breakthrough it would have happened by now but it's their money so let 'em spend it any way they like. It's a not-for-profit anyway so some of it is likely tax deductible if nothing else.

If this creature was an ape there would be one on a slab some where in a lab. The Genbank would have its DNA in its Database and we would not be having these conversations. No there is more to these creatures then we are led to believe and every time the DNA keeps coming back as human. But they keep making the mistake of saying that it has been contaminated so they throw it out rather then further testing of the sample.

I hate to be the proverbial fly in the ointment, but I feel obligated to point out that your cart has outpaced your horse by several lengths. Where has it ever been demonstrated that bigfoot are responsible for the disappearances recounted in the Missing 411 books?

Yes, we all understand. You have told us about 10,000 times. Bigfoot is real because you read it on the interwebz. The rest of us might require some actual evidence first.

Well the year of 2015 is quickly wrapping up, front and center at the outset of the year were the Falcon Project and the Sykes DNA study. The former shipwrecked on the Isle of Funds, and the latter producing more questions than answers, thus selling it's copies. That is the science of Sasquatch in a nut shell, but is it? Still behinds the scenes were groups like the Olympic Project simply plugging along in its mundane collection of data, as also the attempts of the NAWAC to collect a specimen. The fast food of bigfootery leaves one searching for a better form of nutrition. We learn that early on when we put away the silly books or blogs that originally entertained but now hold little value. We learn it as we move forward and see the bones of now dead efforts piled high and wide. It is not the wave that crashes closest to the shore that is worth riding, we might need to get a bit deeper in the water to really find valuable efforts. So when the next thing to roll down the pike hits in 2016 just remember all those others that crashed before, don't let it make you cynical, allow it to make you wise.

Maybe it's that reports spawn more reports. One can't hold an anecdote in their hand the way they could a bone or body part.

IMO, "science" has periodically been used by various individuals, groups & organizations in a veiled attempt to give themselves a degree of credibility. However, when you peel away the layers of those onions, there is rarely any real science in play. Now that the entertainment value of BF has largely been exploited by the tsunami of cable TV shows, et. al, and as those circuses appear to be leaving town, pause is being given to all things BF until the oxygen returns to the room. Opportune time to reflect upon what this is all about sans the buzz and hysteria seemingly incumbent in this endeavour. Sincerity, will however continue to plow forward and those few practitioners will eventually prevail as the circus barkers fade into the abyss of oblivion.
