. I used to wish this were true, but now have nothing to indicate this to be the case.
Yeah, but think of what this could mean for you as a taxidermist, Ron!

Hey, the more the better, as it's all in the labs - legitimate labs, legitimate results. In this case it just means all this nonsense will in fact get put to bed rather than, as Ed says, linger on noisy and unresolved like ufology. And that's the 'beauty' of all things sasquatch - the onus is on believers to deliver verifiable DNA evidence.
Again, the problem with both sasquatch and nessie is the nasty scientific concept of: Minimum viable population. The only real question on the table is why some folks so ardently need to believe in all these various 'adult' versions of santa claus and the tooth fairy.

What if all of the many people who have seen a bigfoot can no longer be clear about it because their memories of the encounter have been blurred by the chemicals in the chemtrails? Or if they (you know, they) have abducted all the witnesses and taken them to the ark on the moon where their memories were altered?
I bet you scientific guys don't have any clever answers for those scenaios, do you?

Thanks for the Kenniwick update. It has been known for some time now that proto Polynesians sailed the circum Pacific by riding the black current north from Japan and across to North America. Unfortunately, their campsites and probably some other burials are now underwater on our western coastline and so hard to find and excavate. It is indeed interesting that they wandered so far inland.

Jan, have you read In the Wake of the Jomon by Jon Turk? He subscribed
to that theory and set out to do it. After he had done it, by the skin of
his teeth, I'm not sure he really believes in it any more. That's one
rough row to paddle. It is a really good book.

Reilly, you mentioned this before and its on my wish list ..........
I think one's success would depend a lot on the time of year. And of course it could have happened by accident more than once.
One of the most interesting conference sessions I ever attended was on the known record of shipwrecks that drifted from Asia to the coast of northwestern America in the 1900's up through the early 20th century. Some were ships of skeletons when they arrived, and others carried Japanese who were enslaved by Native Americans (not something either group wants to acknowledge).
We also know that the ancestors of the Australian aborigines made it from Indonesia to Australia 50,000 years ago.

I was at the Finding Bigfoot taping in Bailey, CO a month or so ago. That dude Bobo could definitely pass as a squatch.

It's in a paper that was read at the conference. I have it somewhere but it will take a long while to find it as I am packing and moving and renovating - huge mess.
Another fascinating paper was about the similarities between the Zuni and the Japanese. The Zuni also have a really interesting origin story in which they used to live in California by the big sea. They also have two sets of ancestors - those who were birthed out of the earth and those who came by sea when islands disappeared off the coast. They say the sea ancestors were more advanced and gave the Zunis many new religious ideas.
Here's the Amazon reference for that.
