The old saying you cannot teach an old dog new tricks. Well guess what cryptozoologists are teaching this old world that it has not seen and discovered everything yet!

Cryptozoology is coming of age through the efforts of a few people of vision. It is the way of the world and the way in which each and every branch of science began.

I will make a prediction here that the next great discovery is about ready to add a feather to the cap of Cryptozoologists everywhere. That I hope will be the discovery in the deep ocean of a surviving trilobite relative. I will not go into why I believe it is there at the moment. But I believe it is. Call it a hunch if you like.

It shall be wait and see.

Yes, of course, with funding, opportunity, and cheap space, I would be happy to move my 46-year-collection into a more permanent, larger, more formalized location. In many ways, that was the idea behind the Bates exhibition, to evolve this concept of my cryptozoology musuem from my modest cabinet of curiosities into a more official supported setting.

But, of course, funding and sponsorship are the keys, beyond the Bates exhibition.

BTW, the government will not be the source of how this happens, if past history is a guide. It will be from the private sector.

Is it as obvious to others as it is to me? Cryptozoology is a viable and valid science that has earned it’s right to be included with other, more readily accepted and acknowledged sciences such as Natural History. I’m sure Loren’s museum is a thing of wonder, but with I feel that Cryptozoology warrants a large, permanent museum that would receive federal funding and accreditation. We all love the subject, but so few of us do anything to support it besides visiting this website. Isn’t there some avenue of appeal that we can use to get such a venture off the ground? Anyone? Gimme a hand here, I’ve already written to my congressman, no response as of yet. Maybe someone knows which federal agency I should write to? Post it on the site, we owe it to the world to share our sense of awe and wonder at this exciting field of study. Sorry for ranting, lol.
