They aren't bears. *grin* Neither do they have "paws". And this: “'Sometimes] I ask them how much they really know about it. And they’re usually not qualified at all,' Williams says." Should read: "[The biggest skeptics]... are usually not qualified to be skeptics." And this is patently incorrect: "...the hard facts, such as the exact size and fur color of Sasquatch creatures – notorious for avoiding human contact – are few." We actually have a vast collection of data regarding size and hair color. I'm not sure how this got so misquoted. Otherwise, great article and we appreciate the serious tone of your coverage. It a breath of fresh air from the usual tongue-in-cheek media fare when it comes to the subject of bigfoot. See you in June! :) Autumn Williams OregonBigfoot.com Looking forward to the conference. :)
