Yes. Put Don Jeffrey Meldrum on the stand. Bob Gimlin too. Let them both answer hardball questions... About Claudia Ackley's claims...

I just had a thought on this. When someone brings up footprint evidence we are told that it has no import in scientific proof of existence even though footprint evidence can be used in a court of law. I wonder what will happen if this gets to court (that is probably a big if because of factors like standing) and the plaintiff calls in Meldrum to look at casts of prints laid down in California. Certainly he has to be considered an expert witness. I suppose the State would round up their own witness who disagrees. There are probably many other things that a court of law would consider like expert witnesses that science does not recognize. The number of BF witnesses who are in law enforcement, state biologists, forest rangers past or present, have to number in the 100's. Is that what is really going on here? Someone trying to force a State to recognize something that science refuses to do?

One thing I hadn't digested the first time I read it is the allegation the state has impeded the Petitioner's right to a livelihood as other traditional wildlife tour businesses have. This is pretty clever and just might have legs. It touches on both equal protection and due process considerations. It might constitute a "taking" if the state's inaction does result in her not being issued permits, licenses and other imprimatur of sanctioning by the California administrative agencies, and this deficiency translates into a loss of potential income.

Here is the entire court filing. I apologize for the quality, but had to save it page by page as .jpg files rather than text.

I was not aware this event was happening but will put it on my calendar for future years. Since this is in Nebraska, I would ask why it is held in winter? I am a mixologist and would love to compete in a bigfoot drink contest. The secret to mixology is any drink can be named anything you want. While I can't think of a precise Bigfoot cocktail recipe at the moment, I have one for cryptids. 1/2 ounce Black Rum 1/2 ounce dragonfruit purée 1 ounce pomegranate juice Build in a pint glass with ice. Garnish with black or red licorice (pomegranate is a natural laxative

Since some folks thing proving existence would spell the end for the creature there would indeed have to be a new slant should Sasquatch be proved. So, instead of "Finding Bigfoot", it could be called "Hiding Bigfoot". Then all of the researchers in the field can do the about face- from locating the creature to flipping 180 degrees and working on concealing it instead. What an irony.

I think if bigfoot were found, the cast of F.B. would be sitting pretty because to most interested, other than the true enthusiasts, they are the public faces of bigfooting. THIS show would likely end but they would be the first in line to be the face for "Living with Bigfoot" or whatever got spun next. MIB

xxxxyyyy Let's try again. Also, there's a lot more to our lunch with PB than here. More later: Peter is quite an authority on infrasound. He has studied infrasound use by elephants in various controlled areas {zoo's}. While I can not speak for PB, I think that ultrasound can probably be used on certain frequencies to communicate with one human; and / or to monitor that human. Specifically, a part native -American friend of mine has told me several times, in different contexts, that once "you" are connected with Sasquatch, they know when you leave home to go to the mountains. There's a lot more to this topic, but as far as I know, Mr. Peter Byrne was a pioneer in While I may be misspelling it, he wrote a book on a huge Nepal elephant, Tula Hati in which this topice was referred to, but not directly addressed. Also, I just bought a copy of Peter's first book directly from him last week. It is in only fair condition with a dust jacket {3 on a scale of 10}. It was signed by Peter and has a note in the after pagers about how he wrote it in The Dalles. $100 was my price and same to anyone on the list. I will allow shipping and insurance. joebeelart@comcast.net Peter at 92, was in good health, cordial, and fun; as usual. Also, not to worry, I have all of his 18 books signed, and several extra copies, so this is not a loss to me. From near Portland, Oregon, I remain yours Sasquatchedly, Joe Beelart. Ps: Hopefully soon, "Honoria Sasquatchian" pins available. To be a "Clackamas Sasquatchian" there are requirements so far only met by 21 people {mainly you have to be on site over 200 hours}. The photo is Mt. Jefferson in the eve before a Pacific storm. I manage to stay dry that howling night with only a tarp. {Have some experience in USMC, etc. and fortunately was alone only 15 miles from a "well" used road.

Listen to yourself. I, I, I, I... We were all talking in general, about why would a researcher have stompers. I offered a few good reasons. Period.
