I read other forums, threads, posts, etc. And I don't know if I am too much a realist, or just don't have the "magic", but some people put up posts and make statements on a daily basis like their sharing snacks with bigfoot(s) or having them over for a lite supper. I saw an article on another site titled "Handy Hints to Bigfooting". Call me negative, but if there were handy hints to Bigfooting someone would have shot one of these things in the arse (  ) by now. I read some of this stuff out on the web (I know, it's the web!) and some of these people make statements like they think the gd Sasquatch is going to walk into their camper and ask to use a cell phone. Call me old fashioned, but with the passing of Dahinden, and Krantz, and the aging of Green, Byrne and others, I don't see Bigfoot(ism) going up hill real fast. There are a few good things, Bindernagel, Meldrum, this web site etc. But I'm not thinking that the world wide web has been a good thing for the world of Sasquatch. Just a long, bitter, rambling thought... Jon |

Hi Jon,
There are many arm-chaired "cryptozoologists" from the other sites. Without their computers, they won't be cryptozoologists.
Sasquatch research, to me, can be divided into stages:
1. Computer type. No field work. Won't spend any money on the topic. Won't think of sasquatch if hockey is back on (only applied to Canadians).
2. Interested in the subject. Will go out once in a while to check out if there are footprints, and hope for a sighting. Try to prove sasquatch to themselves with cameras etc. Will buy some books on related topics. Will spend some small amount of own money buying related gears for sasquatching.
3. Really serious type. All these people have gone pass stage #2. Most of them really think that only a body or a live specimen will prove the existence of sasquatch. Therefore, most likely, they are the "Pro-Kill" group.
I think that it is all about funding. Byrne, I believe, is the only person actually got a grant for sasquatching. All others have used their own money to investigate the mystery.
cheers,
seb

Just a long, bitter, rambling thought... Jon You are quite right. I feel your frustration. It could be something as simple as someone inquiring where to go on an expedition to learn about squatching. BFRO?..a local bunch? An individual? My thought on that is..if you are gonna pay someone to teach you how to track a Sasquatch, or recognize sign..then they had better have caught one to put on their resume..or why the hell should I give them my money! The whole Subject of Sasquatching is so weird in its own way..that if we were talking about any other large forest animal.....you of course would want to be trained by someone who can bag these critters on a regular basis. Right? But no! It is only we and our community who are stupid and bent enough to pay someone big bucks to teach us a lot of stuff..that has never worked (After all..no Sasquatch captured yet )..and a lot of methods that have never worked for them either! LOL No wonder people think we are nuts! |

Welcome to our pain-
It gets to be just a bit much doesn't it? We have
shrunken-head Bigfoot standing in a creek in pics.
We have Bigfoot captaining space-craft and walking
through 3-D doorways. We also have them reading
our minds. If that's true, how come they're not
following us out of the bush? Someone is also having
Bigfoot's baby. Hopefully they're a female? Then there
are those that talk for the Bigfoot. Or how about the
tours of late? And then there are those that hand fed
the Bigfoot for years - now cooking with Bigfoot.
Again...we feel your pain! {putting glasses down}

I guess nobody ever told Bigfoot that there was a Bigfoot Community! He just does not know we exist!
