Bigfoot DNA

It is quite sad actually. She might do better on "Plenty of Fish" or some other free dating site. Based on what I have seen it is all about the "attention".

But what do I know?
 
You know not what you know, but the knower knows.

Melba joined facebook four or five months ago, if I remember correctly, and it was for

announcements, public comments, and links related to my research

Data:

links: zero

Bona Fide Research announcements: one (announcing presentation for conference)

Public Comments: aplenty, so long as they are fawning adulation. I made one for an experiment and it was removed.

Interesting comment made above about having no sympathy for self-inflicted nonsense. The individual is directed to look into the mirror.
 
It looks as though Dr. Hawks' prediction of conjunction with a TV documentary is true, and also it looks as though the study is focusing on the Orang Pendek and Mande
Barung as opposed to Bigfoot and the Yeti.

Here is the clickable link, since Castro can't post them yet.

From the above link said:
I was pleased to learn of his interest and intentions, first from RHI editorial board member Dr. Anna Nekaris, Reader in Biological Anthropology and Primate Conservation at Oxford Brooks University, who will be collaborating with
Sykes on the production of a related television documentary project to include the results of the study.

From the above link said:
Nekaris’ field research into nocturnal prosimians of southern Asia has brought her into contact with local accounts of, e.g., the Orang Pendek and Mande Barung, two distinct potential relict hominoids.

However, her work has not brought her into contact with the Orang Pendek and Mande Barung...

Amazingly, my nonsense seems to hit a nerve with you. I'm past caring why that might be since it seems to be nothing more than a personal problem.
 
Melba finally pulled her site down. No explanation given other than everything was fine.
 
As long as she keeps getting submitted/paid to test "unknown samples" everything is fine. No need to worry. Shes likely made a fortune from the footers (Hersom?) already, no need to release anything. However, I'd be surprised if we see "nothing." I think we'll see another attempt at some dollars before this ends. (probably marketing the "findings" to footers in some fashion via DVD or book)

The most successful strategy in the history of bigfootology has been to stand on existing credentials and examine other people's bigfoot claims instead of pushing claims of your own. Peter Byrne is the seminal example of the "right" way to do it whereas Munns is an example of the "wrong" way to do it.

The article above is following the right strategy for retaining credibility and longevity: send us samples you say are from Yeti, and we'll simply produce the DNA results. The bear, swamp rat, and old truck tire inner-tube DNA results actually are publishable, especially for anything that gained notoriety like that hand from the Monestary in Tibet.

The Melba on the other hand is an example of the wrong way, posting personal stories of five bigfoot, pictures of a couple sticks as a bigfoot construction project, and all the bizarre coy "I'm not going to show anyone" stuff on facebook.

She's already been bumped, and when people actually start producing DNA results it will be like a runner getting lapped in the mile.
 
David Paulides comes to the aid of fair damsel TheMelba (note the "we" and "our"):
Our intentions have always been to submit the results of the bigfoot DNA project to a scientific journal and to have our results peer reviewed. If other scientists of international notoriety give the paper their blessing, there is then no basis for refusing to accept the validity of the results. Protocol in this process is mandated, scientists (participants) can never release results of the testing until the paper is peer reviewed.

People need to understand that the results of the DNA are not Dr. Ketchum's interpretation or the product of her independent work, they are the cumulative effort of many organizations and institutions who contributed their intellect to the results. Great discoveries sometimes take years of success and failure before enlightenment occurs. The results of this study will change the way the world views the biped.

"...enlightenment occurs?" LOL.

So this would be the failure part in the "years of success and failure" refrain.

I seem to remember all the crow skeptics were going to be eating. Tastes pretty yummy to me...
 
Darn it, the circus just pulled up their tent stakes and left town. Oh well, I am sure there will be someone else to quickly fill the enormous void left in Footery by theMelba
 
The living laboratory is so fascinating. An autopsy is required by law in these cases, to determine whether it was homicide or suicide. Even if suicide, cause of death still has to be established.

Past behavior being the best predictor of future behavior, we can't be surprised that no DNA results were produced. So long as she was the only one occupying the field, the ground was easy to defend. The entrance of other DNA competitors seems to have been the key event.
