southernyahoo Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 I would have to refer you to the biographers on Daniel Boone, but If you dig into the word Yahoo, you'll find something uncanny about how many languages it exists in, and what it means in those languages. http://www.oocities....s99/yahoo1.html Here's a teaser for you ZeTomes, What lives in the forset and screams Yaahhhhoooo? strange-cry.wav

Jonathan Swift wrote Gulliver's travells and named Yahoo's the savage hairy people that liked bright stones, Daniel Boone was an explorer known for settling Commonwealth of Kentucky. There are rumors (don't know if true) that he was an exaggerated storyteller who used Gulliver's characters names in his stories. There's also the infamous encounter with a yahoo (name inspired in Swift) which resulted in the killing of it. What I am searching for is that episode mentioned on Daniel Boone diaries or memories or whatever of his or 2nd person narratives. I think there are some answers here PS: now you're sending me recordings of yourself in the bathroom with constipation?? (just kiddin) the sound seems a little too metalic and very human like, where did it came from? do you have any valid information regarding this one? Edited June 12, 2011 by ZeTomes
southernyahoo Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 That's very interesting, let me ready it carefulyAre you confusing Daniel Boone with Jonathan Swift? No, ofcoarse not, Boone was either taken by Swifts writings and made up stories or GT gave him a name for something he actually saw and killed. Jonathan Swift wrote Gulliver's travells and named Yahoo's the savage hairy people that liked bright stones, Daniel Boone was an explorer known for settling Commonwealth of Kentucky. There are rumors (don't know if true) that he was an exaggerated storyteller who used Gulliver's characters names in his stories. There's also the infamous encounter with a yahoo (name inspired in Swift) which resulted in the killing of it.What I am searching for is that episode mentioned on Daniel Boone diaries or memories or whatever of his or 2nd person narratives. I think there are some answers here Yes it would appear that the actual Diary is hard to come by. PS: now you're sending me recordings of yourself in the bathroom with constipation?? (just kiddin)the sound seems a little too metalic and very human like, where did it came from? That clip has been edited to remove some of the noise, The original is available. It was recorded in East Texas by me and I stand behind it as a legitimate recording of "something" that lives in the wild, and responds to calls similar to that. There are other recordings like it, not all of them recorded by me. do you have any valid information regarding this one? I'll have to check that one later, it's blocked on my work computer.
Guest ZeTomes Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 (edited) Yes it would appear that the actual Diary is hard to come by. I found this (a lot! of digitalized documents concerning Boone) and this [The Discovery, Settlement and Present State of Kentucke (1784) ] That clip has been edited to remove some of the noise, The original is available. It was recorded in East Texas by me and I stand behind it as a legitimate recording of "something" that lives in the wild, and responds to calls similar to that. There are other recordings like it, not all of them recorded by me. no kiddin.. (goose bumps) did you match it with other primates, or new world monkeys? very interesting and great job! (I have to hear comparisons of new world monkeys or primates - or even birds though) I'll have to check that one later, it's blocked on my work computer. try this (911 bigfoot call)this case looks very true (the guy's voice seems very true, but what he's really seeing could be not so true for what he supposes it is, but in my opinion it's a good shot) I would like to hear the entire recording for further avaliation, do you happen to have it or know the specifics about it? I really feel realism (and goose bumps also) or this guy is an excellent actor, specially when: "- Jesus Christ! You better... (inaudible); - Get somebody out here! - He's looking at me" Did you get more recordings? Edited June 13, 2011 by ZeTomes

It's definitely either a Bigfoot researcher, or a unfortunate camper who has sat on a log containing a wasp nest.
southernyahoo Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 It's definitely either a Bigfoot researcher, or a unfortunate camper who has sat on a log containing a wasp nest. Don't judge it out of context Norseman, that would be a mistake. the sound seems a little too metalic and very human like, Hang on to that thought Ze Tomes. I'll post in the other thread when I can.
bipedalist Posted June 13, 2011 BFF Patron Posted June 13, 2011 Though I have not personally recorded this particular yell/scream, I do know of at least two other researchers/sets of researchers that have acquired similar recordings in the deepest of night. The filtering of distant recordings for noise as done by southernyahoo here is necessary in many instances to bring background targets to the foreground under the background noise. I believe SY's recordings have merit.

After that, the next stage is comparing the recording with new monkey species howlings or sounds i'm liking this
norseman Posted June 13, 2011 Admin Author Posted June 13, 2011 Don't judge it out of context Norseman, that would be a mistake. I was joking. But on the serious side it matters not. Ten thousand compelling Squatch recordings will not prove a thing.

Ten thousand compelling Squatch recordings will not prove a thing. it's not a proving question, there aren't enough skilled tools here for that nor personal. What is possible to do is eliminating hypothesis and acquiring knowledge in the process, also I want to know the validation of evidence from person to person. Edited June 13, 2011 by ZeTomes

Agreed, I'm just looking at pieces of a puzzel and speculating how they might fit together, but will use science to help do that.
norseman Posted June 14, 2011 Admin Author Posted June 14, 2011 Agreed, I'm just looking at pieces of a puzzel and speculating how they might fit together, but will use science to help do that. Can you go into detail on that?
southernyahoo Posted June 16, 2011 Posted June 16, 2011 Can you go into detail on that? Where vocalizations are concerned and how they correspond to the human quality yes, but I'd have to introduce you to sound analysis and how it is studied in the field of phonetics. I'm no credentialed expert in this area but can make observations using a spectrogram as an amatuer. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vowel Where we perceive to hear distinctive quantal vowels such as /a/ /i/ and /u/ in loud long distance vocalazations, it is a pretty good clue according to Phillip Leiberman that you are hearing a hominid, with a humanlike vocal tract, though ruling out other local animals is still prerequisite. http://www.cog.brown.edu/people/lieberman/pdfFiles/Lieberman%20P.%202007.%20The%20evolution%20of%20human%20speech,%20Its%20anatom.pdf The first 5 pages is about all you'll need to review to see where I would go with analysis, but the rest of the paper is quite comprehensive. These criteria are captured by Stevens’s(1972) “quantal factor.†The quantal factor can perhaps beillustrated by means of the following analogy: Suppose thatthe owner of a trendy restaurant wants to have his waiterstransmit diners’ orders with acoustic signals. Should he employwaiters equipped with violins or sets of handbells? If hewants to minimize the chance of errors, he will opt for handbells,each of which produces a distinct acoustic signal withoutrequiring precise manual gestures.Stevens demonstrated that the quantal vowels , , and[a] have perceptually salient acoustic correlates that can beproduced while minimizing the need for precise motor control.Perceptual salience results from the convergence of twoformant frequencies, yielding spectral peaks (Fant 1960) (fig.2). For the second and third formants, F2 and F3, convergeat a high frequency; for [a], F2 and F1 converge at the midpointof the frequency spectrum; for , F1 and F2 convergeat a low frequency. Using quantal vowels would be similar tocommunicating with flags that have brilliant saturated colors.Other vowels, whose formants do not converge, produce formantpatterns analogous to flags differentiated by pastel colors.Stevens demonstrated that if an abrupt area-functiondiscontinuity occurs at the midpoint of the supralaryngealvocal tract, the tongue can move back and forth as much as1 cm without appreciably changing the formant frequencies. How many quantal vowels are in the word Yahoo?
