The skeptisism in not in what you may or may = not have found...it is in your ability to properly ID the find. NONE of = the skeptics will quickly embrace your find UNTIL someone with = recognizable credentials does the proper scientific study and the = PUBLISHES the analyzed results in a properly acceptable fashion. You are correct in the sense that most every discovery/theory has had = skeptics throughout the ages...but most have had credible scientific = work published after careful and acceptable work has been done.=20 Otherwise you will eventually fall into the category with Bigfoot and = other unaccepted items. I grew up with a man that now lives in the = Pacific Northwest...In the 38 years I have known him he has been an = accomplished outdoorsman, hunting and fishing guide and I have never = known him to ever lie about anything. He has told me he has seen bigfoot = on several occasions and my answer to him was SHOOT IT and get it = ANALYZED...the jury is still out and he still thinks that I do not = believe him. It is not foolish and idiotic to want to see credible = scientific work and in my friends case and big ugly smelling bleeding = bigfoot body would help shut up the skeptics. Listen to some of the scientists and experts on this list...get someone = out there with recognizable credentials in the proper scientific fields = and get them to do the science that will be necessary and then get it = published properly. We will all be waiting until then. Mark M.
