Black hole electron
Hi David: Have you read the "Talk:Black hole electron" material? From your perspective, does the logic sequence shown appropriatly support the conclusion that the electron Compton wavelength value is, 4 pi (3 pi hG/c)exponent 1/4 ? Let me know.--DonJStevens (talk) 00:10, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry for not responding sooner, I forgot about this message and then I've been quite busy for some time. I'm afraid I can't help you with that question. My only knowledge of this theory is from the article.— David618 t 21:28, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Re: bigfoot DNA thing
Oh! I have no idea how I managed to miss that when I was specifically looking for it. Thanks for correcting my mistake. - Vianello (talk) 01:55, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * That's fine. — Fiziker t 01:56, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Sasquatch
Hi. 1) Home erectus can indeed be shortened in that context to H. erectus, if you would prefer that format, I'm certainly not going to mind. 2) Ape-like is more appropriate, as some of the cryptozoological explanations in the article involve extinct species, both likely ancestry to modern human, that are not normally considered apes. Regards, ClovisPt (talk) 03:40, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Since when are the recent ancestors of Homo sapiens not apes? Sometimes people use apes to mean non-human apes but I believe that ape-like is more misleading. If bigfoot were to exist, it would most certainly be a member of Hominoidea. — Fiziker t 03:44, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 * In common usage, "apes" usually excludes humans and human ancestors. I am well aware that that is not really correct, however, I felt it was worth it to make the distinction.  Also, may I suggest that we shouldn't worry too much about what the case would be if bigfoot were to exist?  Regards, ClovisPt (talk) 18:04, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 * If we don't presuppose its existence in describing it, then we might as well just say that bigfoot is a imaginary creature that people think they see. Saying ape-like is just silly in my opinion. I'd like to reduce the amount of foolishness in the article as much as I can (this is certainly one of the most minor ones). — Fiziker t 18:23, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Re.: Bigfoot Sightings, Re.:Fouke
Why did you remove the Bigfoot sightings in Fouke, Arkansas? Those sightings inspired the creation of three movies, incl. The Legend of Boggy Creek which is a movie about what happened in Fouke, Arkansas. Yes, you removed a really famous sighting. 205.240.146.248 (talk) 01:48, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Now I know why the Bigfoot article is "protected". 205.240.146.248 (talk) 01:49, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Please see Talk:Bigfoot for my response. If the Fouke Monster is indeed a Bigfoot rather than a Bigfoot-like monster I'd be happy to return it. As for your insinuation about protection: I'm not an admin so I can't remove protection on a page, but I assume the page is protected because of repeated vandalism (see what gets done to the talk page ). — Fiziker t  c 02:31, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

Re: Norman Nixon/Freedom ship


The above is the revision by Norman Nixon, IP Address 68.56.91.95. Poor guy. -- Z blewski  |talk   02:27, 15 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks. The page lists the edit as occurring on 1 July rather than 30 June. I didn't change that because I didn't know if 30 June applied only to the other information. I added a link to the edit. — Fiziker t  c 03:02, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Bigsquatch
Given your interest in improving Bigfoot-related articles, I thought I'd suggest a couple that could use some work: Patterson-Gimlin film and Ape Canyon. I've also been adding Category:Bigfoot to relevant articles, in an attempt to attain some level of organization. Regards, ClovisPt (talk) 05:08, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I haven't started to look at those and similar articles (besides the Bigfoot trap). — Fiziker t  c 15:24, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Misguided Vandalism Accusation
My edits were not vandalism. It seems ridiculous that the bigfoot article completely omits the explanation of actual people being misidentified as bigfoot. So I added a section. Your assertion that I have committed vandalism appears dishonest to me. Annoyed with fanboys (talk) 02:35, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Admittedly the section I added was not well written or researched, but considering that it is based on common sense, in its incipience, it did not need to be well researched. Unusually large persons in dark lit areas could easily be mistaken for a Sasquatch. I don't know why that isn't mentioned anywhere in the article. Annoyed with fanboys (talk) 02:35, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
 * See Talk:Bigfoot for my responce. My suspician of vandalism was appropriate considering the content you added. — Fiziker  t  c 03:12, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
