WSA Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 The guy is reporting consistent contact with a family group (or he was now that the heat is one he's saying that he is "a-feared" that other researchers will come in and mess things up). But, let's play your game. Consistent contact with a family group opens up many options for collecting dna. Think of the set up Les Stroud used during his finding bigfoot series. He used had a dna punch, glue traps, cameras which had their battery packs far removed and buried so as to not alert. Consistent contact allows the use of any or all of those methods to obtain both dna and possibly a supporting photos. By the way, my contempt for you is nearly boundless as I know your true motivations here. I'll answer your questions as long as you understand I take you not at all seriously.
WSA Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Bohi, no, I mean after he has assembled all this wondeful data and documentation, what then is he to do?
LeafTalker Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Reo’s new list of research projects is not evidence of fraudulent intentions but evidence of someone with ADD that is not focused and wants to do too much too fast. True it's not evidence of fraudulent intentions. But he has admitted to tampering with the audio in one of his videos (After it was pointed out by someone). And wouldn't you know, that's when the claims of harassment started and the videos went dark. A link to the video or post where he makes his admission would be appreciated.

It's been over a week ago that I saw it on my Newsfeed. It was about the Monument Wallow video. He may have taken it down. After it was pointed out that the audio had been tampered with...(something about it being in stereo?) the guy came out and said that yes, he had "enhanced" the audio. What he did was enhance it so that is sounded like something was there, when nothing was there. I heard it, concluded that the guy is a con, and moved on. I will see if it is still up, or if he pulled it down. 2
WSA Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 So, I'll have to answer my own question, although Bodhi I'm sure could just as well. The question being: What should a field researcher like Utah Sasquatch do with all of this presumed data, video and genetic information he might possibly capture? Pound sand, that's what. U.S. knows now, if he didn't know before, that there is no legitimized outlet, no sanctioned scientific entity or agency that would return his calls. Toss the information into the black hole of the internet? Congratulations on your thousands of views. Here's a copy of the home game and thanks for playing. (Oh, and kiss that shot at tenure and funding goodbye while you are at it, and grow some thicker skin) Time and again the evidence collected gets dismissed by a wave of the hand by people who should know better. Being invited to kick the football one more time while they promise (really) to hold it for you? Pffft. So all we have going on with our resident peanut gallery hecklers here is just the most recent cross-my-heart-and-hope-to-die-stick-a-needle-in-my-eye request. No. Really. This time I'll give you your due. (But just sayin' too, if I do renege, it will probably be your fault, not mine, 'k?) Ready? So to crib from another thread: Here is the state of Sasquatch Science. Supposedly, we are told, only the body of something very few people are looking for is going to break this logjam. Those who clamor for that outcome are asking for something they've never seriously considered to exist, and cite the lack of any other legitimate evidence brought to any sanctioned authority,,,those shown to be hostile to that lesser evidence... as the reason why. They pretend this makes perfect sense. 4
Incorrigible1 Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 By all means, please tell yet another unverified report. Include: large, hairy, smelled bad, moved on all fours and bipedally, escorted out of area, made wooden pole creations that serve no purpose, "woodknock" trees, and slap inhabited buildings. Submit the report and at least one person here will conclude that absolutely provides proof of existence. Voila! 1
LeafTalker Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 Interesting. Tim Fasano was apparently one of the people who decided to publicly blast Utah Sasquatch in a video before he (Tim Fasano) understood the entire story. Mr. Fasano then consulted with some actual audio people who said his accusations were unwarranted. Following this consultation, Mr. Fasano took down the video that blasted Utah Sasquatch. Mr. Fasano describes these events in an exchange with a viewer in the comments section of one of his own videos (www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sz5xKvWHsCw): Viewer: Thank you, Tim, for taking your video about Utah Sasquatch down. That is a good first step. Tim Fasano: That was because my partner George (He is the audio director for the Home Shopping Network located in Tampa) said that the anonymous poster on Reddit was talking gibberish. It may be possible but he had never heard of such a thing. George advised me to stay out of it. George is a tech genius who has worked in audio production for thirty years. He says the Reddit poster's claims may not be credible. He would have had to have been using CIA stuff. I may have jumped the gun. In a later comment in the same thread, Mr. Fasano says this: I am going to issue a public apology to Reo. I have always liked his videos.
chelefoot Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 I hope Reo goes out and brings back a fantastic video of a Sasquatch and cashes in and makes millions.
LeafTalker Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 It doesn't sound to me like he's looking to cash in on anything. Sounds like he wants to form a research group to reconsider, among other things, the use of weapons against Sasquatch people; to assemble evidence of the existence of the Sasquatch people; create a documentary (and a possible series) about the Sasquatch people designed to show people that the Sasquatch are not monsters to be feared; and encourage people to learn for themselves about the inhabitants of the woods and post the information they gather in some central place. 1
jayjeti Posted July 10, 2016 Posted July 10, 2016 Good reply LeafTalker. Reo is trying to do research and help get others involved in doing the same and I see a lot of this bash Reo as just for the sake of bashing Reo.

He does show irrational exuberance and naiveté with his attempt to pursue all these projects at once and bringing all sorts of strangers into his research area. My advice would be for him to stick to what he was doing before (solo exploration and documentation of his local area). It was those amateur field videos that appealed and attracted viewers and followers.Moreover, Reo got his new FLIR unit from his GoFundMe campaign, so I suggest he use it and see what he finds. If he does not use the new gear he got (and asked for), then that would suggest that his mind is kind of scattered and not focused/disciplined on his research approach, methods, and tools. Time will tell if he can deliver anything of merit or if he is just another BF huckster but with above average YouTube/Facebook social media skills. Did he? In his original gofundme, I believe he listed the cost of the flir unit as around $12k and he stopped the gofundme after he been given a little over $5k.

I think that some people believe they have real reasons to think poorly of others, and that's fine. Everyone has their own yardstick, their own litmus test to determine whose observations will be persuasive to them. The problem comes when the doubter thinks the failure of his own personal litmus test entitles him to broadcast that "failure" to the public. It doesn't. Failure of a personal litmus test is a matter of interest only to the person administering the personal test. It is not a "fact" that could hold up in any investigation, as this particular case clearly illustrates. (Subsequent investigation has proven that the initial accusations were unwarranted.) And a public statement of suspicion -- in other words, an opinion -- offered as if it were fact risks damaging the reputation of an innocent person. That's just plain irresponsible. You need to know beyond a shadow of a doubt that what you're saying is true before you attack someone's reputation publicly. Edited July 11, 2016 by LeafTalker 3

Bodhi, Yes, on one of his videos he said that he decided to buy one of the less expensive FLIR units <$5 K. If you see the one he bought on his video, it is a FLIR LS-XR version and not the BHS-XR Command.
