Plussed. Why should we treat Ketchum with any more respect than Standing or Biscardi??? She has way bigger problems than any of us nobodies on this forum.....like the Houston chronicle that published an independent study on her work. That she claimed was just propoganda to discredit her.... I have great disdain for the whole business of sueing people. And I would never consider sueing any of you for talking bad about me especially if my grandiose claims of proof never bore fruit. I view it as a citizens right to do so. Nobody should be able to gag you for speaking the truth. Where is the proof Ketchum? Standing? Biscardi? No where. As alluded to, "nobody would have to gag you" they could just bleed you dry with litigation that never ends.

Based on the age group stats, we should update our logo.... :lol: Seriously though, any kind of research efforts will die with our generation. I give it 10 - 15 years at most. There is no new blood where it matters most, out in the field. Unless a type specimen is obtained soon, it'll all become just folklore. We need to realize this and do some kind of youth outreach to get kids interested...

Nobody should be able to gag you for speaking the truth. Where is the proof Ketchum? Standing? Biscardi? No where. It isn't about this ^^^ at all. What is relevant is you declaring her to be in an impaired mental state (I believe the word used was "crazy") and calling her a fraud without including any proof to substantiate your publications. Along those lines is where (IIRC) Mr. Coleman got crossways with Mr. Johnsen over similar comments and he (Coleman) placed himself in a bit of a sticky wicket. So, speaking of "proof" and what you call truth" (regarding your allegations against Ketchum) IMO, you probably would be well served to get busy and find it. Pretty easy really....until her "study" is accepted by a real peer reviewed scientific journal instead of her own journal she set up for the sole purpose of publishing her paper? She doesnt have a leg to stand on. You would think that she would work really hard to salvage her study and get an incredible new species like Sasquatch excepted by science right? But no.......she instead turns her attention to DNA tests of reported Alien hybrid skulls from south America. And writes an article and gives interviews about Dog men. i would define someone who believes in werewolves pretty crazy, yes.

It sounds like an embellishment of the Albert Ostman story... Not buying it for a second.

^^^^^That is good to hear. I have talked to John Bindernagel about Canadians VS Americans and BF before. What he said surprised me. While we have BF conferences all over the place in the US several times a year they are pretty rare in Canada. He said that Americans are much more receptive to the idea of existence than Canadians are. He said that Canadians are for the most part more conservative than Americans about such topics. He seemed to really be enjoying talking to people at the Sasquatch Summit. I would have thought it the other way around in Canada because of the long history sightings in BC. Anyway if you ever get a chance to talk to him he is very friendly and welcomes discussion. I mentioned having encountered chest beating and he was very interested in that. As we were talking, someone came up, overheard our discussion, and said they had experienced that behavior too. That got him even more interested. This person was from Idaho and I mentioned someone in California reporting it also. So that is three different regions reporting the same behavior. We had a good laugh at the circumstances on how I triggered the behavior. He picked up a notebook and made notes. I had never heard of it before I experienced it. This is the kind of stuff that academics may not be aware of unless they have contact with field researchers. But some seem to have walled themselves off from lay field researchers. One of my pet peeves.
