I assume several saw the latest episode of Destination Truth and the search for the so called Cerro Azul Monster. What a waste of resources that was. I'm sure most have seen the images on the web. I read several months ago where this was deduced to be some type of mutated sloth which to me seemed logical based on them being common in this area of Panama, they even saw one a night that set off the perimeter alarm. They go through all this big adventure for nothing. Then at the end one of the curators of a zoo looks at the picture and pretty much tells Josh it is a sloth with no hair. Now I know there are several unknown or undiscovered entities on this planet we share but this was a big disappointment to me, there are so many more locations or beings they could have chose that would be much more interesting. I like the show for sundry reasons and want it to do well but this was a step backwards to me. /blink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':mellow:' />

"They insisted that the victim animals simply had died of dog bites from dogs or other animals. They suggested that disease might have been responsible for one animal's death. They denied that the victims had been exsanguinated, as many witnesses had claimed, and even suggested that the puncture wounds reported might be from barbed wire. Callers reminded them that some wounds were deep enough to reach into the victims' lungs, that the flesh was not torn as in dog bites, that signs of struggles were inexplicably missing, and that corpses did not decay normally, but their arguments were brushed aside. Also brushed aside were callers' attempts to bring extraterrestrials into the conversation.

When the recording ended. I rewound it and played it again and again. I still could not believe what I was hearing. The callers had the skeptics pinned against the ropes from the very first call." - Scott Corrales

I agree, I wish they would only go to actual places with a possibility of finding something. I also like it for it's entertainment value (loved the whole Turkish rug and funny hat stuff) when they went to find Nessie's cousin in Turkey. It was silly to take a boat out at night to look for the lake monster, that was a waste of resources and didn't even have any entertainment value!

It just seems to me that the "Ghost Hunters" culture has saturated the para-reality medium to the extent that it is standard operating procedure to only do investigations at night with IR cameras. Kind of sickening.

Reality in varying shades of green.

Yes, the whole TAPS/Ghost Hunters mentality is infecting shows like that. Why should they film during the day? Because at night they can BS the viewers more. Less light means you can't see what they don't see. They can get away with saying they saw something and it dissappeared in the dark then it is saying it dissappearing in bright daylight.

How easy it is to fool the diehard fan.

I'm not always right but I'm never wrong.



The above are my opinions.
