ReplyDeleteBall Boy

Well there you have it skeptards! when someone like Jane Goodall says they exist, they exist Period! She's way more creditable then even Dr. Jeff Meldrum.
ReplyDeleteYou skeptards, that sit at your computers, and never venture in the woods, are just a bunch of lazy whiners and are very un-happy with the lives you live. Your a pathetic bunch of wasted life force!
Yeah you tell them no good sons a birches see if they come back round these parts again
DeleteI hope the Skeptards come back! I enjoy commenting to idiots!
DeleteYeah! City slickers withoutta lick I sense. Hah!
DeleteI was in the woods just this morning. Well, I drove through the woods this morning. Well, there were some trees alongside the road. Well, I went past a tree on my way to Mcdonalds. There was a pothole, so it wasn't all easy going.
DeleteSkeptards n melonheads bin breedin fer years.
DeleteI'm sorry to tell you guys this, but she later said she didn't mean to say she was "sure". She did clarify that she would love it if they were discovered. But for the record, she did correct herself.
DeleteLink or lies.
DeleteGoodall conceded there hasn't been the smoking gun that proves the existence of Sasquatch, and told Flatow, "of course, the big, the big criticism of all this is, 'Where is the body?' You know, why isn't there a body? I can't answer that, and maybe they don't exist, but I want them to."
Deletehttp://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/1927876/
Delete... So she Agknowledged that she could be wrong and expressed her preference to their legitimacy and I have searched extensively for a source that later contradicts her standpoint that she is 'sure they exist' and there is nothing.
DeleteI'm asking you to provide me with a link, help me out here.
"I'm sorry to tell you guys this, but she later said she didn't mean to say she was "sure". She did clarify that she would love it if they were discovered. But for the record, she did correct herself."
DeleteWhere is this? The source you provided doesn't have what you claim is there... She says she could be wrong, and there isn't a body (like nearly every single enthusiasts anyway) but where does she retract her statement that she is sure they exist and that she believes Bigfoot to be a legitimate subject?
Well that solves it then.
ReplyDeleteThe debate is over. Scientific type hearsay trumps all. Nevermind lack of data.
ReplyDeleteDoes Jane Goodall believe in Bigfoot? From what I remember, she was intrigued by the romantic notion that such a creature could possibly exist. I don't think she was saying that available evidence supported that Bigfoot existed. I guess I could go back and read what she said (and in what context), but I'd rather make a vague statement here on BE and get lambasted by y'all.
ReplyDeleteAnd just to clarify, when I said 'romantic', I didn't mean 'She wants some hot nasty Bigfoot love.' I know how you people think. Get your heads out of the gutter.
You are correct. She did not mean to say she believed bigfoot exists. In later interviews she clarified her position.
DeleteLink or lies.
DeleteThe following is a transcript of the relevant portion of the program:
DeleteDr. Goodall: As for the other, you're talking about a yeti or bigfoot or sasquatch.
Ira Flatow: Is that what he's talking about?
Dr. Goodall: Yes, it is and ...
Ira Flatow: Is that the message I'm missing here?
Dr. Goodall: I think that's the message you're missing and ...
Ira Flatow: (To the caller) Is that right?
Caller: Pretty much.
Ira Flatow: (Laughing) I'm out of the loop. Go ahead.
Dr. Goodall: Well now, you'll be amazed when I tell you that I'm sure that they exist.
Ira Flatow: You are?
Dr. Goodall: Yeah. I've talked to so many Native Americans who all describe the same sounds, two who have seen them. I've probably got about, oh, thirty books that have come from different parts of the world, from China from, from all over the place, and there was a little tiny snippet in the newspaper just last week which says that British scientists have found what they believed to be a yeti hair and that the scientists in the Natural History Museum in London couldn't identify it as any known animal.
Ira Flatow: Wow.
Dr. Goodall: That was just a wee bit in the newspaper and, obviously, we have to hear a little bit more about that.
Ira Flatow: Well, in this age of DNA, if you find a hair there might be some cells on it.
Dr. Goodall: Well, there will be and I'm sure that's what they've examined and they don't match up. That's what my little tiny snippet says. They don't match up with DNA cells from known animals, so -- apes.
Ira Flatow: Did you always have this belief that there., that they, that they existed?
Dr. Goodall: Well, I'm a romantic, so I always wanted them to exist. (Chuckles.)
Ira Flatow: (To the caller) Alright?
Caller: Thank you.
Ira Flatow: Thanks for calling. (To Goodall) Well, how do you go looking for them? I mean, people have been looking, right? It's not like, or has this just been, since we don't really believe they can exist, we really haven't really made a serious search.
Dr. Goodall: Well, there are people looking. There are very ardent groups in Russia, and they have published a whole lot of stuff about what they've seen. Of course, the big, the big criticism of all this is, "Where is the body?" You know, why isn't there a body? I can't answer that, and maybe they don't exist, but I want them to.
... So she Agknowledged that she could be wrong and expressed her preference to their legitimacy and I have searched extensively for a source that later contradicts her standpoint and there is nothing.
11:20... I'm asking you to provide me with a link, help me out here.
Christ, Joe. She acknowledged she could be wrong. That's what I meant. How can you be sure, if you also admit you could be wrong? It's fine that she finds the evidence compelling. The problem is that people seize on her initial statement as an argument from authority that Bigfoot exists. That's not what she said. Relax buddy, and please don't call people liars, it is unkind.
DeleteThat's not what you said, look at your comment and understand why I would question it... No hard feelings bro, there was always a chance that you could have supplied me with a source to not consider her stamement and that's very important to me. I didn't call you a liar, this is me being inquisitive and it can sometimes come across like I'm being offensive, I apologize.
DeleteWell, context is difficult to communicate in this medium. All I was trying to point out, was that she later clarified her position. As in, later in the interview. I'm sorry that hit a nerve, it wasn't meant to. One of the main reasons I don't try to participate in dialogs on this subject anymore is that opinions are so polarized. Frankly, it has sucked a lot of the fun out of for me. As a student of peace and non violence, I assure you I don't mean harm to anyone.
DeleteJoe, I give Goodall's opinion the same weight I give a astrologist weighing in on the cosmos. I don't know if they are right or wrong but I do know they know a hell of a lot more than I do.
DeleteAngry Guy here.
I'm pretty sure I didn't want to say "astrologist". Well, you get what you pay for I suppose...
DeleteAngry Guy here. Again...
Can't agree more angry guy!!
DeleteHas Goodall ever been penetrated by an ape?
ReplyDeleteShe has been married twice and had one son. So yes, presumably an ape of the homo sapiens persuasion.
DeleteMelba is sore
DeleteActually she had a daughter...
DeleteSharif don't like it
ReplyDeleteThe Clash are (Were? I think they're all investment bankers now)the over rated so called band to ever exist. My cat can out music them turds.
DeleteJane Goodall has donkey brains
