I think a ninja would be a good way to describe them. How can we fool a human whose intelligence is built for survival without the use of tools? Of course one might make a mistake and somehow be seen, but I wouldn't count on it. When hunters want to get within shooting range of animals they usually either look for one, try to fool one or wait for one to show up. Will any of these tactics work with Bigfoot?

So wait.

Hold up there.

You question whether looking for one works while you believe that the PGF shows an actual Magic Woods Monkey?

You do know P and G actively went out looking for Magic Woods Monkeys right? And according to you they found one. So by your own reasoning this entire post is moot.
Also, ALL creatures intelligence developed for survival without the use of tools. Including all humans. We use tools but our minds didn't evolve/devolve to need tools or else all of humanity is doomed.


Do you think about the things you say or do you just talk and believe that everything works out in the end no matter what?

I was with you up until this.
You don't think the humans with the capacity to use tools were able to dominate any rival who didn't have the capacity to use tools? Isn't this a perfect example of evolution? The use of tools was probably the single greatest evolutionary hurdle that we made.

I think you might be taking my words to mean something greater than what I had intended. Probably a misstatement on my part. What I meant basically was that people didn't evolve with tools in hand. OS seems to think not using tools is some sort of advanced evolutionary trait of bigfoot with his whole "you can't fool a human that doesn't need tools" statement. I was just trying to point out that people survived before the development of tools; that tool-less survival wasn't something fancy bigfoot had. That's why I specifically said "need tools" in order to survive (though they certainly do increase the odds). Maybe I mangled my sentiment though, but it is more or less the default of all creatures until they develop and use tools. That doesn't make them more wily. I would actually argue it makes them less.

I agree that the capacity for tool use is one of the greatest traits one could ever hope to have.

I would like to point out however, that bigfoot uses tools according to the footers. Nests are tools. Using sticks to communicate is tool use. Throwing rocks as weapons is tool use.

If a figboot bleever accepts the results from hair and DNA analysis that (supposedly) show "unknown primate", how can figboots be human? :confused:
 
Bigfoot is cool. If there was a comic book involving bigfoot as a character, I'd read it.

Bigfoot is cool in the way batman is cool. Both are fictional, but cool.

The simple idea that a bipedal ape is lurking around in the woods, witnessing humanity from afar, and somehow only showing their presence to a select few is a cool idea. It's great campfire story fodder for the youngsters.

It's an easy construct really. All you need is a wild man. The environment (the woods) and its' mystique is already built in.

I can only imagine the mythos coming from native american traditions regarding bigfoot originated as simple campfire stories to engage the childrens' imaginations.

The whole bigfoot thing is fun to follow. It'll be interesting to see how the story of it evolves over the next twenty years. It certainly has changed since my first exposure to it as a child in the early 80s when I saw an episode of 'In Search Of.' It would be an interesting cultural anthropology study.

Jackalopes, unicorns and dragons are cool, too, but there are very few, if any people, foolish enough to believe that the stories about them describe real animals. For some reason the same is not tro of bigfoot. Of course, in the case of jackalopes, it is acceptable to try to convince gullible tourists that they are real. After all, there's the head of one hanging right on that wall over there (if you're in Wyoming).

I'm not saying looking for them would never work. Animals make mistakes and i'm sure Bigfoot does too :)

I think maybe we have the wrong idea about what Bigfoot is. If they were just bipedal Gorillas, we probably would have discovered them a very long time ago.

If there were people out there attempting to capitolize on an existence of dragons, I'd probably dump bigfoot in a cold minute.

Dragons are way cooler, but harder to fit into a suit shaped like a dragon eh?

Descriptions of bigfoot among bigfooters vary widely.

As do the footprints.

You can't hang that on the sceptics. :D

You obviously don't keep up with creationism. Many creationists claim dragons are dinosaurs and that those dinosaurs still exist in remote areas. There's the infamous and recent news story about the Louisiana schools teaching that the Loch Ness monster disproves evolution.

Also, there are comics that have bigfoot in them.
http://www.amazon.com/s?ie=UTF8&keywords=Bigfoot&rh=n:4366,k:Bigfoot&page=1

Check out the 1 star reviews for "in me own words." There are a couple disgruntled figboot researchers expecting the book to be uh...possibly actually written by figgy.

If a figboot bleever accepts the results from hair and DNA analysis that (supposedly) show "unknown primate", how can figboots be human?

Because figboot believers accept any and all findings that aren't "man in a suit."

Too much woo, way too much. It's possibly one of the biggest scams ever. There's nothing fun about that.

Bigfoot is, for all intents and purposes, harmless. And so, I have fun with it. The claims are just preposterous enough to make it so, in my opinion.

Dragonspeak via creationism... Dragon believers are one thing, but tie it to the bible and my interest sinks to the floor.

Thanks for pointing my way to the comic book, but I was just making a point. So don't take it literally..

Okie doke. I keep up with creationism exactly because it isn't funny. It's an actual danger.

And I'm sure there are other dragon believers, I just don't recall running into any older than age 6.
 
^ I think he must not understand and thinks that peer is someone who pees and what was actually said was "piss on it!".
 
This video was sent in to Dr. Jeff Meldrum, and he thought it was interesting enough that he passed it along to FB/FB for analysis.

That's a sure sign of a huge bombshell. Merldumb passes on the uninteresting ones to the Smithsonian Institute or Harvard University Museum.
