Well, I've seen dead, or live, examples of every other large North American mammal in zoos, museums, etc.

Re: Yawn
Nuggin
Crash's post had valid points and not a single strawman that I could identify.
I'd love to see your response to Crash's valid, interesting points.

Re: What a field biologist does.

"Actually you haven't Zhimbo. You've seen examples of everything we currently have evidence for."
Well, let me alter my wording...
I've seen dead, or live, examples of every other large North American animal whose existence is taken seriously. For animals that exist, remains (at the very least) seem to be present. It's kind of a necessary by-product of...you know...existing.
Why you then go off on fossils of extinct animals from prehistory I have no idea.
If all you're arguing is "it is not a violation of fundamental physical law that something like Bigfoot might exist, despite an utter lack of any captured individual, bodies, bones or other remains, or indeed any remotely convincing evidence", there isn't much to talk about. You're right. But, so what?
Edited by Zhimbo, : No reason given.

Re: Yawn
Ummm...Nuggin...
Almost NONE of what you addressed was in the post I was referring to that you refused to answer by Crash. Exactly 1 point from your lengthy reply to me was relevant:
CRASH: "you're talking about one airplane"
which was neither ad hominen nor a strawman. Nor does your reply here actually address Crash's point, most of which you omit, creating a...wait for it...STRAWMAN of Crash's argument. You state Crash claims that only 1 plane has ever crashed in the Pacific NW...but he doesn't when you read his entire statement. Instead, he is saying you haven't supplied enough relevant info to make it clear how valid your point is.

Re: Bigfoot: A Direct Revelation
Funny. I expected you talk more telegraphically, with grunts and stuff, and poor mastery of first person pronouns.
More like:
"Me Big Like Internets. Me Like Double Skim Lattes. NO LIKE TINY KEYBOARDS! SMASH! OOOOOGGH!"
Sorry for the ignorance on my part.
