The OP is asking the wrong question. "Do you believe in Sasquatch?" No, of course I don't. I don't believe in the Easter Bunny, either; nor do I believe in Santa Claus, or in the Tooth Fairy. Do I think there's a possibility that a large, anthropromorphic animal is running around in America's woods, and has so far managed to leave no undisputed physical proof of it's existence? I'm not going to rule it out completely; but I'm not holding my breath for it to show up, either. Now, it would be a different thing completely, if Sasquatch showed up at my front door tomorrow, offering lawn maintenance services at a good price....

The more scientifically appropriate statement would be something like, "we have yet to discover sufficient credible evidence supporting the existence of Bigfoot. More research is needed, please send money to fund this research".

What's with using scientific methodology to discuss this topic? Actual science has no place in a discussion such as this! Discussions about Bigfoot should be based purely on emotion and erroneous logic. You guys are way off base. Sheeeeshhh!

I wasn't being scientific; I was being a sarcastic, nitpicking wiseass. And yes, I agree that "scientific discussion" of Bigfoot is pretty much an oxymoron. And, I forgot that there's now :beaver: for me to use; guess I better start.

Just for the record; we do still have English speaking landscapers here in Las Vegas. Unless you're a casino CEO, though, you can't afford them. ;)
