There is another aspect to Paulides. We have to remember that he claims .. and his bigfoot books Tribal Bigfoot and Hoopa Project support this .. that he is the one who brought Melba Ketchum into the bigfoot world. He continues to support the authenticity of her "study" yet it is a clear hoax from purchasing the journal which still has never published a second paper to providing DNA strings which do not add up to what she claims they add up to to any number of shady shenanigans intended to suppress evidence of her misdoing. Until he separates himself from that quackery, I don't trust his judgement or his claims. If he is even half as smart as he claims to be, he KNOWS exactly what he's embracing. We are rightly judged by the company we choose to keep. I feel the same about Scott Carpenter and Steve Isdahl, the difference is, even beyond those two, Paulides should know better.
