  1. It seems to me that somehow there should be established a bank of all these DNA results that come up as human contaminated, and unknown primate,such that over time there would accumulate enough samples to begin a systematic comparison . it seems like every time such results are arrived at that's the end of it. The samples are destroyed and the results dismissed. Sure, theres no real centralized unknown primate DNA analysis center, but there must be a way to obtain the direct data of the studies(ie genetic markers present in sample, or not present, for that matter) I dont know what it costs to complete a genome mapping, but it seems like they are getting done for more and more species, maybe its time to try it on a couple of these unknown primate sample. Eventually these samples will begin to fall into groups with shared traits or similarities. Are there anything like this already in existence? Ones that included a variety of different regions samples? I can't say what Dr Disotell does with the data he sees sample by sample, It seems like Dr Sykes threw out half at the get go then destroyed the rest after he proclaimed the resurgence of the Himalayan grizzly(or was it a polar bear) It just strikes me there's bound to be distinctive commonalities within all these samples , which if fully charted out could at least lend itself to some degree, towards some form of classification or taxonomic placement, or at least "oh yeah, that goes in that pile over there..." Of course this is presuming the government doesn't grab up any samples of significance and already "doesn't have any such data bank whatsoever! Thank you very much"!

  2. I totally agree that results, if not samples, should be saved in raw data form. I have recently presented my eDNA results at the Texas Bigfoot Conference, and the slides are available to view on the FB Group Critical Thinking in Bigfoot Research. I am about to submit these results in more detail in a paper in Relict Hominoid Inquiry, Jeff Meldrum's online journal at: www.isu.edu\RHI.

  3. A few years back, I was with a sasquatching buddy at a remote pond we backpacked to. The sun had set and, with little moonlight, it was very dark. I did a wood knock and got a return knock about 6 seconds later from an area in a large swamp across the pond. Another 6 seconds later, a wood knock occured from my side of the pond. Both were loud enough yet far enough away I feel comfortable saying they were not a tongue pop. At least to my ears, both had the sound quality of wood-against-wood and neither sounded like a chest beat. It was also in a remote area that I'm confident no one else was around, particularly in the swamp. What does that leave as the origin of the return nocks? I'd guess wood. One of the great unanswered questions has always been how a return knock occurs so quickly and what is its source. Maybe a stick is carried more often than we'd think. It can be weapon by which to spontaneously hunt with (throwing), defend itself, or communicate with others. A multipurpose tool.

  4. Almost like there's a shadowy faction of the government doing their best to suppress and disinform. I mean, if there were samples that "might be a new manatee" I don't think they'd be getting swept under the rug. Please take that with a grain of salt coming from me as I'm no scientist. Still it reminds me of one of my favorite X Files scenes. Enjoy.

  5. I guess the part where I've seen them do it many times, must have alluded you people. On my other Bigfoot sites, I have hundreds of people agreeing with me, knowing Bigfoot couldn't have made the noise any other way. Take no offense people, but you really need to get out in the woods more often. I've been working and living there over 40 years. Someone please tell me how to cancel out of this site.
