I think the reason he has stuck to the great ape theory is because the evidence that he has personally viewed fits the morphology of apes more than humans, so in the absence of actual physical evidence to the contrary, he will stick to what the evidence he has actually seen has told him.

That is the very best way to be as a scientist, and really to believe anything. I tell people all the time that I should have been born in Missouri, the “Show me state”. I think Midnightwalker believes what he believes because of his experiences, not because someone told him those things and he just said, “Ok, I’ll buy that.” I think all of us should be expected to put what we are told to the test if we are in a place where we are able to, and that no one should be offended or surprised if we don’t take his or her word for it and want to see for ourselves. There are a lot of hoaxers and nuts out there, and they aren’t running around with ID badges on. If I tell you guys something, feel free to check it out!

J Coleman – Agreed that pics need to be properly debunked. That’s not difficult to do. The hard part is finding that exact spot again. I have had pics that I swore were sas in over the shoulder pics I took, only to find they were not when going back and taking the debunk shot. Happens all the time.

DWA – I apologize for coming off so strong. I understand people’s reluctance to believe this that or the other. I think it just requires them getting in the bush for themselves and doing it the right way. If anyone wants my two cents of what they need to do, all they need to do is ask. However, mindset needs to be right and trickery out the door.

haha! Just checking.

If the rest of you know what I mean.
