AN URGENT PLEA!!

I know I haven't posted anything new in months, but that's because I didn't feel I had anything to post about. Now however, I feel I MUST post this. Let me start out by saying my intention with this post is not to offend anyone. I'd like to make an urgent plea to all Bigfoot researchers not to post every "blobsquatch" image you get, all over the internet. When you do this, all you accomplish is to make us all look bad in the eyes of the skeptics. Bigfoot research will never be taken seriously by anyone important as long as we keep offering these "blobsquatch" images as evidence for the existence of Bigfoot. So please, the next time you get such an image, have several people look at it without saying what you think is there, and see if they see anything before you post it online. If none or only a small percentage see what you do, then don't post it. Quantity of evidence isn't important, only quality of evidence.

Bigfoot, Nessie, & Scifi

An article I just read about Loren Coleman's new Cryptozoology museum has got me thinking. Often in articles about Cryptozoology, including this one, the authors use both Bigfoot & The Loch Ness Monster(Nessie) to help explain what Cryptozoology is to those who don't already know. Since Nessie has been all but debunked due to a thorough sonar scan of the lake that found nothing and then a study of the amount of aquatic life in the lake that concluded there isn't enough aquatic life in the lake to support a viable breeding population of Nessie type creatures, I'm not at all sure it's good for Bigfoot research to have Bigfoot and Nessie mentioned together. A skeptic might know of the lake scans I mentioned above and conclude that Nessie doesn't exist & assume the same thing about Bigfoot if it's mentioned in the same breath in an article or documentary. Maybe it's time we all start referring to Bigfoot research as Crypto-Anthropology like I've heard Robert W. Morgan do. Another thing that the article about Loren Coleman's museum has reminded me about that really bothers me is how Bigfoot is often classed as "Scifi" Technically it may still fit that category, but I can't help thinking some people form biases against the possibility of Bigfoot, based solely on the "Scifi" classification. It seems Mr. Coleman's museum shares space with a book store featuring Scifi books. While this may be good for the town the museum & book store are in, it may not be good for getting people to take the subject of Bigfoot seriously
