BREAKING NEWS: Loch Ness Monster Found? -Animal Planet

Satellite imagery accessed using Apple's satellite map app has Nessie fans all over the world buzzing. It appears to show a mammoth underwater monster swimming below the surface of Loch Ness.

The Official Loch Ness Monster fan club has been studying the image for about six months. Various explanations have been ruled out and hundreds if not thousands of Nessie connoisseurs around the world are
now convinced that this is definitive evidence of the Loch Ness Monster's existence.

What do you think? Is this just a case of misaken identity or could it be the real thing? Sound off in the comments!

Our own Jeremy Wade, host of River Monsters set out on a journey to unlock the mysteries of Loch Ness. Watch the video below to see what he uncovered.

Of Prehistoric Eels and Lake Monsters - Cryptomundo


Of Prehistoric Eels and Lake Monsters

eel1

"When the paleontology community has pooh-poohed the idea of relict plesiosaurs being responsible for the identity of various sea and lake “monsters” in different places around the world, some researchers have embraced the simpler theory that these hypothetical animals may be giant eels. The giant eel theory goes as far back as famed early American naturalist Constantine Rafinesque in 1817, who proposed it for the Lake Erie monster. The theory was further fueled by a 6 foot larval eel captured off the coast of South Africa in 1930. Based on ratios of the size of the larval stages of known eel species to the adults, it was theorized this 6 foot larvae might produce a 60 foot adult.

In 1970, ichthyologist D.G. Smith produced evidence to suggest that this 6 foot larvae was probably not a true eel but a Notocanthiform fish (related to the true eels). The Notocanths have large larvae that do not have the same disparity in size with the adults, so this was taken as a defeat to the sea serpent idea for the1930 larval fish. This has been disputed by some, however."

The Search for Intelligent Life on Cryptozoology.com

So people, once again, I'm posting about Cryptozoology.com

http://www.cryptozoology.com

It's a nice site about Cryptozoology, very interesting and informative but since I was banned
due to intolerant people (often preaching tolerance for others while ignoring
their own intolerance) I was wondering if their is still intelligent life i.e. intelligent
posters and forum members on the site (I was once one, to a degree, lol)

CZ.com has been on the internet since at least 2000, maybe before then.

So does CZ.com still have intelligent life on it? In honor of NM's posts...

The results from my search/investigation are mixed, these opinions are from
reading the forums, mainly the Off Topic forum and the Evolution vs Creationism
forum and include what people remind me of
:
N. Mihalos: Good person and long time poster on CZ.com, very intelligent
imo, NM's Search for God posts/series are nice and very
informative and interesting to read. He reminds me of Spock
on Star Trek for some reason. He is a Christian btw.

NM often gets picked on from Stu P. for some reason, including being
called a liar (just like my time on CZ.com before I was banned for various
reasons) yet he continues to endure, keeping up the good fight and
great posts.

Rainbow Medicine Man: Same as NM to a degree, RMM
is also a long time forum poster with a very good sense of humor,
tolerance for most others like NM (though not all esp. Hootowl,
whom I'll get to in a short while) I enjoy reading RMM's humorous/funny
posts from time to time, some are very touching though.

RMM needs to educate himself on ID a bit more such as reading
one or two books on ID by a noted ID author; I did the same for
Evolution plus took up Zoology.

RMM is a non-theist and an animal lover btw. Reminds me of: Captain Kirk
with a good sense of humor and wisdom added, NM would be Spock and his...


Sidekick. Or possibly Yoda from Star Wars.

hroth: All around good Christian and guy like NM,
tolerant of others, intelligent and funny at times.

Reminds me of: Jesus, if he were an American in this century (really)

Note: I like hroth, RMM and NM a lot. I consider them...
The three wise men of Cryptozoology.com

On we go, people...

Cisco: The owner of the site, part moderator (I guess?)
and all around good guy that is tolerant.

Honest guy, good integrity, informative posts.

Reminds me of: Cisco brand PC products (WTF?)

Gerry Bacon: Moderator of the site, good guy,
eccentric sense of humor at times and all around
American (this is coming from a liberal that voted
for Obama, me)

Gerry had a health scare, hope he is doing ok, looks like
he is so far. I don't care for AR-15's like he does, mentioned
in one of his posts, they are Military weapons for killing large
numbers of people i.e. enemy combatants.

Let me rant about this issue for a few...

Some people in the Military and police have spoken out on assault weapons
(including some Republicans and conservatives such as Reagen) politicians
like Nixon, Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter and others have either banned guns
or wanted to ban them. Bush Sr. even resigned from the NRA in a famous letter
he wrote resigning from them. I hope it's not true that people i.e. men that are
gun nuts have small.... You know.

Imaginary wars (with the Government) based on fear and excuses to own deadly weapons
were never this much fun as they are now, esp. after Sandy Hook when people
should have burned AR-15's, not hogged them up, eh Gerry? Lol jk.

People have a right to life. Owning handguns, shotguns and rifles
are ok, assault weapons? Not really, imo.

But serious, as a liberal gun owner I cannot find any Cobra's, Hi Points
or Comanche revolvers, even military surplus guns are hard to find,
I can only find HER 22LR's, Derringers, Black Powder guns and that's
it, even ammo is low in stock or out of stock. Sigh.

Reminds me of: Dale from King of the Hill, to a degree but more intelligent.

Hootowl: Christian YEC that does not like The Catholic Church. Turn offs
include atheism, anti-theism (which is rampant somewhat on CZ.com's forums)
and other religions, also evolution is a major turn off for Hootowl.

His posts are often good matured but misinformed or based on
views that are not really scientific, only a few are to a degree.

Hooty, if you ever read this (and I pray you do) Sperm to Embryo
to Fetus to Baby to Child to Teenager to Adult, is this not a form
of Evolution taking place? I think it is, a good analogy anyway.

Reminds me of: VenomFangX from youtube or possibly
Kent Hovind.

Stu P: Stu is the resident skeptic (along with many others, Karl the most notable)
anti-theist, atheist and general moron of CZ.com (along with a few others who really ilk me)
who often preaches tolerance for those like him, while preaching intolerance for any and all theists,
except a very select few.

Stu likes accusing others of lying, such as with NM most recently, attacking others views
and beliefs and mocking people. I know many people from the UK, they are nice. Except for
Stu, he is.... Something else. I don't know what else to say about him, really. I don't.

Very intolerant guy to me and others. Not forgiving.

Reminds me of: Stu from Family Guy.

ZZ: Ditto.

I would not put nothing past her. She is capable of turning people on others, using psychology.

Her and Stu acted like Grammar Nazi's towards me (and others) instead of helping us learn
English, even the best of us forget proper English from time to time.

Reminds me of: ??? (Not sure)

The others: CZ.com is an interesting case for group psychology, with that being said,
the other forum posters I did not forget. Some come, some go, some are popular,
some are just background characters or only use the site once in a while.

Reminds me of: The mob mentality of Springfield (see The Simpsons wiki) in other words
Springfield itself, to use an analogy some people remind me of generic TV show's on for
a short while, maybe a few years at the most.

Other notable people: Livmorf: Francis Collins, anyone?

Me: Doctor Who, lol (no, really!)

Thank you for reading this, and yes, there is intelligent life on the internet, esp. on CZ.com
if you look hard enough.

p.s. You're welcome for the free advertising, Cisco :)

Regards for now
