I’m not sure what to make of TAPS involvement. I was an avid watcher of that show, and have nothing but respect for the founders and their modus operandi. I know they have taken a good deal of flak from many other ghost-hunters and paranormal investigators, and have been called charlatans and hoaxers as well, but I’ve never seen any evidence of this at all. To me, it just seemed like something that comes from being in the spotlight, as they are with their show. Perhaps this Ron Milione is letting it go to his head?

I wonder how many other people were from those areas where tornados aren’t a more or less common occurrence? What in the heck was anyone doing out in something like that? Irresponsible, dangerous beyond belief and downright stupid. If some one had died what would that have done to any credibility that real cryptozoologists have tried to build? It seems Biscardi might actually be more dangerous to the field than we imagined.

Thats right larrykat, he did say he saw a tornado on a dark night. That storm must have been lighting up the sky really good, lets see if it was that bad what the hell are you doing in it.

It was so dark they could not see anything but he had fun watching a tornado “spinning away in the sky”??

I agree with those who have posted the comments about the dangers of going out in weather like this. It is certainly not a very smart or professional way to proceed with an expedition, especially when there are innocent paying customers tagging along. I guess they just didn’t want to give out any refunds. Any field expedition that I have ever been a part of would have been cancelled in such weather.

This whole episode has changed my thinking of Mr Biscardi.

Previously, I thought he was just an out of work clown looking for a circus to join.

Now I read that he has created his own circus.

How can a rational thinking man encourage people to roam the woods in weather as described above?

As leader of this “expedition” his primary concern should have been the well being of the people under his supervision.

Professional? You mean crazed? Sending untrained individuals to walk through the wilderness during a storm and a possible tornado just isn’t smart. Though it is a hell of an equipment test. I, Like Graybear, think part of his story is a little bit stretched to say the least. 500 m is a huge distance even for IR i would assume. At least the tour guide didn’t just leave his tour group like he was thinking of doing.

I don’t know about all of this. it just seems sensational to begin with. I would like to see the prints, plus the supposed IR image (just please don’t tell me that you forgot to hook up the IR to the DVR.) If Biscardi and him are professional and believe in the scientific process they need to release there findings to the public. But I have a feeling those prints and/or IR images won’t see the light of day.

He encourages you all to go out there (and spend money on Biscardi’s expeditions)

“Real Professionals” would have called the whole thing off in that kind of weather.

Nevertheless, I admire the passion they have for the hunt, I just question the credibility. If Tom brings in a live one, yeehaw, I just wouldn’t put my self in their care.
