*dances on the grave of Steve Alton's book*
*joins the dance*
When suddenly a hand shoots up from the grave (like in 'Carrie') and grabs your ankles.
The book will no doubt sell millions. Look at the combined opera (plural of opus) of Whitless Strieber. Look at the audience figures for Art Bell. Look at just how dumb the average human being is. By definition, half of them are even dumber than that!
Even now, people with more keyboard skills than brains are probably blogging of how there's a conspiracy between the MIBK (men in black kilts) and the SSHs (small soft hamishes) to 'supress all evidance of the existance of the Lock Ness monstor' at the bidding of their shadowy leader, known only as 'Boo'!
Well, if they aren't they damn well should be! |

I've just had a thought...
(Don't all cheer at once!)
Someone should start up a hoax blog whereby every article on the MoH is criticized as part of the cover up. A hoax 'conterpoint' to a museum of hoaxes! What could be better! |

Just came across this conversation, and thought I would add my own "slippery" number. Apologies if this little item is already well-known:
Reward offered for Melbourne 'Loch Ness' eel. 21/02/2005. ABC News Online
[This is the print version of story ]http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/200502/s1307064.htm]

Reward offered for Melbourne 'Loch Ness' eel
The operators of a trout farm are offering a $1000 reward to anyone who catches Melbourne's own Loch Ness monster.
A giant eel, believed to be around four metres long with a head the size of a football has been spotted at the trout farm at Warburton.
It is believed the eel washed into the farm's ponds during this month's record breaking storms.
Farm manager Gary Wales says efforts to catch the giant creature have so far been unsuccessful.
"We don't want it harmed, this things probably 30-years-old, and he's come here probably by mistake and he's found himself a good little home and plenty of food," he said.
"We hope to catch him alive and take him to the Melbourne Aquarium."
He says he has never heard of such a large eel before.
"No. Maybe it's Nessy, Nessy's offspring maybe, who knows, but no, it's a big eel." |

I can't beleive this is still being discussed, the so called tooth is nothing more than early deer antler. male deers lose and re-grow antlers every year. If anyone has ever seen a deer when the antlers are new, they will realise that they are exactly the same as what is being held in the photo.
My explantion for the carcass, is that the deer fell from the cliff, smashing it's self up on the hard jagged rock and in doing so it antler/s has snapped off as it's inbedded it's self in the body. It happens all the time around there.
As for it being the tooth of an eel, has anyone actually seen how big or small their teeth are, if this came from an eel your talking of something in the range of a 100 to 200ft in comparison.
wouldn't suprise me that this all leads up to a scam, where someone ends up selling an antler on Ebay as this so called tooth.
come on take a proper look at the image. |

It wasn't still being discussed. We'd all come to that conclusion a long time ago. |

What you all fail to realize is that the so-called "eel" in that Australian trout farm isn't really an eel, but is actually the Loch Ness Monster on summer holiday. The Knights Templar paid for her airplane tickets. It's all explained in this book that I just read (and happen to be paid to advertise, too) that I'll let you all have for only $50 each! |

The story the guys were telling was very hard to believe because they seemed to stutter alot and pause like they were taking their time to make up the story.I also recall him saying "I thought I saw a fin". Did he or did he not see it. Also the tracks were to small for something to be able to tear a dear in half. A creature that big couldn't have made such small tracks.I rest my case. |

I've gottasay i've been reading all the responses & i m also kinda skeptical about the tooth...why did it just dissapear? I for one though believe in the The Lochness monster...allot of the facts stated in this forum seemed more like guesses than actual facts.
Why isnt it possible to think that a generation full of nessie's lives in Lochness for one its the second largest(deepest) lake in all of europe, secondly the loch is an arm of the sea meaning that fish can get in & out.
Many scientists agree that the Loch holds more than enough food for a generation of animals to live there.
Sonar...how come every time sonar has been used in the Loch Blips on the screen showed an animal of some sort 5to 10 times bigger than anything known in the loch. The reason we cant investigate further is because the good people of scotland have placed a restriction on what kind of investigations can be done in the lake. also heres a real shocker...it was just proven recently that the Loch does indeed hold underwater caves. If anyone needs more info. u can contact me at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) |

To nessieshomeboi: proof please.

Which scientists? What are their names and credentials? Where have they said this?
Sonar...how come every time sonar has been used in the Loch Blips on the screen showed an animal of some sort 5to 10 times bigger than anything known in the loch.
And you know about every sonar scanning of the loch because...? Please tell me where I can read proof of this.
The reason we cant investigate further is because the good people of scotland have placed a restriction on what kind of investigations can be done in the lake
Where exactly did you 'find this out'? Even if there are restrictions on the loch, there could be many reasons for that. Proof that this has anything to do with 'nessie', please.
it was just proven recently that the Loch does indeed hold underwater caves
By whom? Where?
By the way, it's not the wisest thing to put your email address up, either.
Stewen: we know. |

Maegan, they're all much the same. The Knights Templar'll be along in a bit.
Stewen, no worries!

Just putting the record straight a little here.
As I understand it, the passage to the sea from Loch Ness is a gate controlled so something big going that way would be spotted. The Loch is also fresh-water not sea water.
The one problem I have with there being a single blip sonar-detected in Loch Ness is that there's only one. Unless whatever is migratory somehow, it isn't an indication of a small colony there which it would need to survive there. A large colony would have a serious effect on the local fish which it doesn't. Loch Ness isn't teeming with fish but the local community do fish it for salmon.
Loch Ness is hardly the warmest stretch of water neither. Really cold if anything. Any reptilian species, apart from the need to surface regularly for air, would have to be constantly on the move and feeding. The same would apply to surface sightings. A gilled-fish, even if it had a long neck, wouldn't do that much travelling on the surface. The best of both worlds would have to be an amphibian of some sorts. The so-called mane described with some sightings could be an external gill.
What restriction have the people at Loch Ness put on investigations?? Quite the contrary. They welcome it if anything. The tourist trade would hit the roof if it was positively confirmed that there was an unknown creature there and that's more than the regular tourist coaches they get now which visits both the Loch and its Ness Museum and supply of knick-knacks.

Hi Everybody!
I saw a film about scientists trawling Loch Ness with a machine which reflects sounds, and they found NO CONVINCING EVIDENCE that Nessie exists, so there you are.

Barbi, what film? The people on the other side of this argument should be held to the same reference standards as the people that are for it. |

My family has lived for several generations near the Pass of Inverfarigaig which runs down to the South side of the loch. I have often toyed with the idea of starting a monster burger franchise. Trouble is we can't catch the creature, he is altogether too fast for us. So we are thinking of using frozen Wimpy burgers instead. Does anyone know if this would get us in trouble with the Trades Description Act? All cash offers to buy shares in this potential catering goldmine can be directed to myself at the Pass of Inverfarigaig. Talking of resident monsters we have had some success with our Aleister Crowley milk shake. |
