		<description><![CDATA[Didn&#039;t the Wallace family try to claim Ray was sending people out with fakes when the story began to fall apart? Was that before or after the towing trick was tried?

Wallace &quot;could&quot; have been there, but there&#039;s no evidence he was? He was living in Toledo, then? Is that correct?

The Wallace family got their fifteen minutes of fame and their film deal; let it die.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Another idea that may have relevance here is one I read recently (wish I could remember who):

Any animal will, sooner or later, make a good likeness of ANOTHER animal&#039;s track.

Some of these &quot;fake&quot; earmarks could be actual track artifacts, just like they could be hoaxes.

Not to say, mind you, that the same things showing up in known hoaxed tracks shouldn&#039;t be viewed with suspeicion &#039;til provenance can be proven.

The key point will always be:  NEVER say it could not have been faked.  Just that circumstances - and this is always more than the track itself - say that&#039;s either likely, or it&#039;s not.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Re:  this quote from Crowley:

-------------------------------------
What is the bottom line here? I cannot prove the tracks are fake, yet the Blue Creek Mountain – Onion Mountain trackways exhibit multiple signatures of Ray Wallace hoaxing.  With these enormous “red flags” why do the advocates persist in claiming that “Wallace didn’t do it”. Well, ego is a big reason. If the tracks are fake, then Green and Dahinden were fooled, and fooled badly. Fooled by a known crackpot, and that’s gotta hurt.

So back to condition three; By no means have the advocates proven that Bigfoot made the Blue Creek Mountain – Onion Mountain trackways, a necessary condition for the cast in question to exhibit Bigfoot’s dermal ridges.
----------------------------------------

Well, the take-home from this is that advocates CAN&#039;T prove that Bigfoot made the tracks.

Green and Dahinden (and Krantz and Meldrum, maybe to a lesser extent) have been trying too hard to &quot;prove positive&quot; when there&#039;s no way to do that.  If the tracks are putatively sas tracks, the angle to take, if obvious hoax markers aren&#039;t present, is to assess the place and conditions, and extrapolate from there to the LIKELIHOOD of a hoax.

Crowley&#039;s big contribution has been to open people&#039;s eyes to the impossibility of proving the provenance of the tracks, regardless what markers they show. Jimmy Chilcutt may be better than me.  But why isn&#039;t the world following his lead?

Tracks can lead us there.  And fake tracks are dead ends.  So it&#039;s good to recognize fakes.

But also to remember that a real good fake could also just be a real good sas track.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wallace owned a construction company that had contracts throughout the Pacific Northwest, relatives who lived from California to Washington State, and was wealthy enough to travel.  Actually, apparently Wallace was rather well-to-do, as his company earned him a good fiscal foundation from which he could have taken trips far and wide.

There is no negative evidence to the fact he was not in the Blue Creek-Onion Mtns area during the summer of 1967.  Also, his prankish associates and relatives could have carried out these hoaxes just as well as Wallace.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I know Matt has stated he thinks all the Bluff Creek area tracks were faked, presumably with Wallace feet, but according to Loren Coleman&#039;s &lt;a title=&quot;obituary&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lorencoleman.com/raymond_wallace_obituary.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;obituary&lt;/a&gt;, Ray moved to Toledo, Washington in 1961.

The Blue Creek/Onion Mountain event occurred in 1967.

Where was Ray Wallace in 1967?]]></description>

Personally, who cares?
My opinion.
Scrap all suspect tracks to date and start anew.]]></description>
