I don’t know. Things happen, and then other things happen as a consequence. I think we should just let things be, and when we make a big mistake we should just resolve not to make it again instead of playing around that way. We might make another huge mistake trying to ‘fix’ the past one.
Thank you. I’ve been impressed by that film, especially when more modern processes have been applied to the analysis of it.
(I recently saw a video where it was suggested that ‘Nessie’ may have been a giant eel of some kind...)
And when people think something is ‘extinct, we should remind them of the coelacanth. There could be all kinds of stuff out in the Earth that we don’t know about yet.
The Patterson/Gimlin film has been exhaustively analyzed, and is pretty convincing to many.
But they were prepared. The one time I saw something very strange, there was a camera a few feet from me, and I didn’t even think of it. When your mind is shocked by something that doesn’t make any sense, taking a picture doesn’t always come to mind in time.
