"Three men have scheduled a press conference this afternoon in Palo Alto, Calif., to share the details surrounding what they claim is their "discovery" of a Bigfoot, or Sasquatch, in northern Georgia two months ago.
Matthew Whitton, a police officer, and Rick Dyer, a former correctional officer, maintained they happened upon the corpse of a half-human, half-ape creature while hiking in the woods. They also said they saw three other live creatures while carting the corpse away. Along with Tom Biscardi, an old hand at bigfoot hunting, the men intend to substantiate their bold claims with DNA evidence and photographs.
But long-time Bigfoot experts and trackers are almost certain the trio is taking the public for a ride. " ABC News

At last, a new recruiting population for the marines.
I confess to being an unreconstructed Sasquatchophile. The very idea of the big guy wandering around the woods eating the kind of rubbish I used to eat in survival training really turns me on.
These things are reported under a multitude of names just about everywhere. I looked at the statistics for reported sightings a while back. Not surprisingly, there have to be a fair number of people in an area for there to be reports. No people, no reports. There are big blank spots on the reports map in wilderness areas. There are lots of reports in forest parks, national forests and in particular areas; the northwestern US, eastern Texas, Apallachian eastern Pensylvania and Kentucky. Not many reports in West Virginia, even around Charlston near Ohio. Virtually none in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia and none east of the Blue Ridge. Virginians tend to think that these creatures can not be distinguished from the rest of the population in West Virginia, but, who knows!
The big demand from the spoil-sports and party ruiners has always been for a bigfoot corpse. Well? Let's see it! pl
