Bigfoot Follies: part trois
Well, there's really no way the site is any sort of secret, though. Anyone who wants to find the place can certainly do so. The NDA is just another part of the game and a way to feel like you are doing something important and "sciency". |

Does the DNR acknowledge footies on the public land? As far as hoaxing goes, it's pretty much the only thing one can count on in bigfootery.

No, the DNR does not acknowledge on the record.
The land owner and family have had multiple daylight encounters with the squatches on the property. They want absolutely nothing to do with the Bigfoot community. They only trust a few of us onto their land. They've been burned before. |

Oh goodie-gum drops - we've moved on to page trois!
Well I followed the info about Remer and its environs. It looks awful green around there on the Google Maps. |

NL, have you looked at the NDA to see if it has any legal sway over someone divulging a place on public land?
What would your legal recourse be? Don't you have to be able to quantify damages if you were to try to sue someone for breach? If someone revealed the location, on public land, of this huge secret, what would you be able to claim? For example, if I was going on an expedition to prove the existence of Dragons in Central Park, NYC, and I made someone sign a NDA, what damages would I be able to claim in my lawsuit to enforce such an NDA if the person spilt the beans? Would this person's breach falsely make me look crazy? Would this person's breach have caused me monetary damages? Would thousands of new Dragon researchers descending upon this spot, for which I have no claim, cause me monetary harm? What are they unable to disclose? The location where NO BIGFOOTS were located? Hypothetical Facebook Post: "Just left Raccoon Mountain in Minnesota, Zero Bigfoots here." would that be in violation? |

As soon as any objective observers arrive, bigfoot leaves.
Bigfoot only hangs around or harasses believers. Bigfoot instinctively knows that you don't believe in him, and he avoids all forms of contact. |

If you follow NL's link, the History section tells of people seeing bigfoots there so often 100 years ago that it wouldn't even necessarily merit mention when you greeted passersby. Sounds kinda like today that if I saw a deer I'd not proclaim that news to anyone but if someone started a conversation about them the news that I saw one might then come up. So . . . bigfootses in that community then were evidently as conspicuous as White-tailed Deer are across most of their range today, applying the word evidently as loosely as possible of course.

Anyone would think that they'd take advantage of such supposedly rare occurrences happening over and over in broad daylight by, I don't know, taking pictures or film recordings, y'know, to earn themselves the reputation of being the first people on Earth to prove the existence of giant ape-men?
Perish the thought, it's just a normal every day thing for these simple folk. They pay no mind to witnessing giant ape-men in broad daylight, y'know, cos they've got stuff to do... |

So what the hell are you guys even doing on their land if you're still unable to deliver literally any proof of the existence of giant ape-men? lol.
"Look, there's a Squatch, in plain sight, in broad daylight! Quick, get the camera! Ah, shucks, he just made off into those trees, what're the chances of that?" Any day now, eh? Fingers crossed! |

He sees you when you're sleeping, and he knows when you're awake.
He knows if you believe or not, so believe, for goodness sake! Considering the fact that this amazingly rare species of giant hominid seems to confuse its own species' communications with those of a few rag-tag part-time weekend-adventurists, it's an absolute mystery why we're here, in the year 2017, with about as much evidence for Bigfoot being real as we have for Bigfoot being Santa Claus, which is "sod-all." |

Does it contain any language that requires the signee to remain silent even if they suspect foul play or fraud?

Oh dear.
Have you looked at his other vids? That "mother and cub" one is hilarious. And the "bigfoot hand" one as well. Yep...any day now...any day. |

NL would you be willing to disclose the name of the public land the Bigfoots are located.
Having been down this road before with Chris, I'd love to know if it's a national/state park that I have not visited and may have other interest of mine, if I made the trip. |

Then we are at an impasse, and one I suspect you are intentionally manufacturing. The content of the NDA is a key component of my determination of whether to take this seriously. I am not yanking your chain; I am attempting to determine whether my chain will be yanked.
I have signed many NDAs in my life in both the civilian and government worlds. With rare exception, the NDAs have never been treated as sensitive documents themselves, and I can conceive of no legitimate reason why the NDA for this trip would be one of the exceptions. Therefore I will ask directly: What is your reasoning for not sharing the NDA now? |

Because I'm not one of the three owners of the SRA group and it's not mine to send. How about this? As I said earlier, I do have a conference call with all three next Tuesday so I will ask them if they have any objection to me forwarding it to you. If not, I will be happy to send it your way.
