Skepticism Pisses Me Off The Blogsquatcher
The author isn't really upset about skepticism, as he explains in this review of another blog where a former believer turns his now skeptical wrath on cryptozoology. But is the skeptic guilty of violating the scientific principles he says cryptozoologists and followers of other such arcane fields of knowledge have been violating at will? Meanwhile, at Cryptomundo, recent derogatory commentary by New Zealander Leigh Hart about Bigfoot researchers in general, elicits a response that cuts right to the chase in MQ's Hajicek Sends Cryptomundo Kiwi/ BF Expo Comment; and the recent discovery of a small statuette being touted as the world's oldest, has some people wondering, New Venus Discovery ~ 35,000 Year Old Bigfoot? With images.



From the maverick science reports of the day: A new BBC documentary, set to be released in New York City May 19, and hosted by Sir David Attenborough, will supposedly reveal "the first-ever complete skeleton of an extinct animal called an adapid." Will this obscure creature prove to be the "Missing Link" between ape and Man? Elsewhere, neurologist Dr. Richard Cytowic, author of Wednesday is Indigo Blue, discusses the strange lives of those people who experience synesthesia in When Senses Intersect.
