When I spoke of "the gal" in that interview I was referring to the lady that lived there. The former owner, not Leila.

*sigh* ... I guess that most of you have never heard of "Waltzing Matilda". B)

I have, hence my reference to.........Oh never mind, 2 + 2 = 4 if you look hard enough.. ;)

I am a POME after all, like they like to call us..

Great film footage is exciting to watch and will indeed go along way in gaining more support for the cause.... But with that being said films and photo's can always be hoaxed no matter how good they look they will always be scrutinized and never provable beyond any reasonable doubt. But they are fun to try and get and people want to see them.

DNA data cannot be hoaxed, it is the “blueprint†of a species makeup, each individual has its own DNA profile, (accept for identical twins I believe). DNA is the best irrefutable physical evidence short of a body on a slab. You can not hoax it.

Which is why Erickson and company are trying to get the DNA. Even if the film is questionable DNA would be great in and of itself.

Why would you not want to line up for something like this? I know nothing has been delivered yet, but I would rather see it coming then turn on the news one day and see the film. It is much more fun to be a part of the build up.

Im not saying that I am not excited to see it and I hope its really good!!!!!

But if it happens to be a flop or not that all convincing then dont forget that the DNA is the real prize in this thing and that there is much more to the DNA study than just the Erickson Project samples.

The quality or provenance of the video pales, IMO, to the announcement that they collected nuclear DNA and it is being tested and the findings peer reviewed. That's exciting stuff, if they have some decent video then that's icing on the cake. Can you imagine a more strenuously reviewed scientific paper?

After many attempts, we perfected methods that enabled us to collect saliva, blood, and hair from several sasquatch. The mitochondrial DNA and nuclear DNA of these samples are presently being analysed.

The chronicles of the study have been documented on video and are part of the documentary Sasquatch the Quest which also includes a review of the multiple evidence collected, and various scientific points of view on the subject. Upon conclusion of the peer reviewed DNA analysis by scientists the documentary will be released.

I'll point out again...

Indie, we're staring at a big publicity stunt.

I hope it is followed by substantial evidence. I have no predisposition one way or the other. I'm simply saying that the pattern we are seeing is a familiar one. I have seen this setup many times before.

Again, it is my utmost wish that the hype is justified. I can hardly wait!

As far as the DNA study goes I can tell you that the "hype" is definitely justified. Everyone that worked on this thing to include the groups or individuals that submitted samples worked really hard but no one harder than Dr. Ketchum herself.

I don’t know about the Erkcison film, but as far as the DNA study goes it is not another one of those built up things with a let down at the end. No one has ever done anything that is even close to what Dr. Ketchum has done. This whole thing is truly amazing. I know waiting is difficult but it is even harder when you know things about your own samples and you can’t tell anyone about them.

I am definitely not trying to take anything away from the Erickson Project but people seem to connect the Erickson Project and the DNA Study as one and the same. There are many groups involved in this project and NABS was the first as far as I know. The Olympic Project submitted its first sample in late 2009, but I think the project had already been going on well before we got involved.
