There's no squirming. I have on several occasions obliterated the 'footer special pleadings regarding the lack of bigfoot fossils or recent remains. It doesn't matter what you present, there's a core of fervent belief in bigfoot that will always find some way to cast bigfoot as "different" so they convince themselves that your examples don't apply. Remember, there are many BFFers who cling to this notion that scientists can't find bigfoot fossils because bigfoots bury their dead. Talk about a non-sequitur!

ahh, I guess you missed the part of the story where, on the third day, they roll away the stone.
 
Living in the northwest, I have often pondered how Squatch were able to survive the eruption of Mount Saint Helens. Given a number of reported Squatch sitings in the area (Ape Canyon Miners, Skookum Cast, Bigfoot on a Mountain Top), how was the "population" of Squatch able to avoid the initial blast of the volcano, and the subsequent disruption of the ecosystem in the area (loss of wildlife and fauna). OK, it's not a serious question, but in the context of the "myth" of Bigfoot, I would be curious to hear the arguments of how the Squatch survived. My assumed asnwer would be that they were able to "detect" the eventual eruption using highly tuned senses, and migrated from the area, only to return at a later time. This would probably explain the proliferation of Squatch sitings in other areas, due to the displaced Squatch population. Pods of Squatch moved to Kentucky, Ohio, Rhode Island ... hence the recent reports in those locations. Wow, if I keep going, I can almost write a book. OK, I am bored. No DNA news of late, so I have to get my Squatch fix.
 
I am guessing the local big guys threw their dead into the volcano when they sensed eruption was iminent ? Then they high stepped it out of there "beaming themselves "and followed the railroad tracks east and also Interstate 90!
 
I seem to recall reading a report of black helicopters coming and cleaning up all the dead Bigfoots after Mt. St. Helens erupted.

That was only for the "stragglers" that did not "beam and transport themselves". They received a care Kit consisting of 12 zagnut bars, jacks links, a dictionary, 4 litres of bottled water, an Official Boy Scout Field Manual, and a parachute... to be deposited with the coyotes that they saved.

Oh.. and a collapsible shovel.. well.. just in case.

They didn't need shovels, they had portable holes.
 
The kids around the country are getting the idea. A 9 year old reports a "bigfoot' sighting in Wisconsin.
The 9-year-old boy and his father went to the Village of Eagle Police Department at about 5 p.m. May 8 to file a report about possible suspicious activity behind the school. The boy told his father he had seen Bigfoot in the woods behind the school that evening. The boy told police that he and a friend had been playing near the woods, and although he didn't see the creature in its entirety, he stated that he had seen a leg that belonged to the beast....
After further investigation, police learned that the school's groundskeeper had been performing standard duties in the wooded area north of the school - such as clearing brush/branches, or putting leaves in the woods to decompose - at about the same time of the sighting of Bigfoot's leg. Police determined that the leg the boy saw was likely that of the groundskeeper.

"… it was determined that most probably, Mr. (Jerry) Segart is, or was on the evening of May 8, Bigfoot," the police report said.

I expect the BFF'ers will launch an attack on Jerry Segart's account.
Good to know that the police can protect and serve, and, at the same time, squatch.
 
When I was a kid we lived with this Native American tribe in Alaska and there was this valley where trees were uprooted and put back into the ground upside down. The elders of the tribe said it was a way that this kind of gorilla marked territory. No one thought about it much. THere was moose and bears. So, there was also this kind of rare Alaskan gorilla. We never saw one for about two weeks.

If we did see one, it was from the safety of our cars and it was just like seeing a bear looking for berries. We would have also sworn a pact never to admit it about is beause of the stigma associated with this animal and a desire to protect their habitat.

I don't defend the hare-brained ideas of some "Bleevers". Nor do I deny that a body will be necessary for the scientific community to accept "bigfoots" as a currently existing species. However, I do hope that you enjoy my short letter in Archeology.

You've seen 12 bigfoot huh?

You ever try and track one of your sightings down, you know, keep following it and perhaps make the discovery of a lifetime? I mean really try and pursue; camp in the area, set up a grid system, maybe consult with some hunters who have experience tracking game? From your stories . . . I mean interview, it seems like you had multiple opportunities to nail down this squatchy thingey.

Jon, you wrote,
It was clear to me that what I had seen had been at least 9 feet 6 inches tall and was more likely in excess of 11 feet tall when standing erect.

My question is this, wadr. Are you subject to hallucinations, delerium tremens, schizophrenia, exaggeration, fabrication, vivid dreams, sleep disorders, night terrors, use of illegal or volatile substances, or organic brain syndrome? Do you take any medications for emotional, psychological, psychiatric or personality disorders? (I'll skip the questions about references, background checks, job references, medical/psychological exams and employment, since that would be out of bounds here.)

just asking. for my research. you understand. You see, these questions are never asked by the BFRO (as far as I know) or any other organization that "investigates" "bigfoot" "reports". Nor are urine tests or breathalyzers done. And I ask you, don't you think these sorts of questions and tests and checks would be appropriate to administer to someone who has made the claims you made? Just sayin...

And there you have it Parn, I am a bigfoot proponent but not of shabby investigative techniques. In order to establish evidence, one would think you could at least follow a protocol similar to those used in the criminal justice field to gather at least a modicum of circumstantial evidence.

The claims from "serious researchers" are just as laughable to me. Where is the proof from these folks? Have you seen it? I haven't and probably won't until they figure out that evidence based research has to be based on at least one established fact. Good investigative methods might actually work better in establishing a fact or two regarding bigfoot as opposed to the so called "research" that isn't working.

Instead the arguments rage on in bigfoot world about the validity of each other's so called evidence or experiences as an excuse to give the topic relevance I suppose. Just another example of cybersectarianism at it's finest IMO.
 
Fortunately, there are items that can be verified in the story, dated March 2 of 1988. For example:

It had been raining every day for about a month and this day was no different.

February of 1988 had 1.39 inches of precipitation at the Moscow Idaho University observation center.

The probability of at least .01 inches of rain on any given day in February historically is .4. The probablility of 30 days in a row of at least .01 inches of rain is .4 to the 30th power, or 1.15 X 10^-12

= .000000000001

So I am 99.9999999999% sure this component of the story is false. And that's just the business about raining every day for 30 days, not about the 11 foot tall bigfoot.
