Getting Blasé about Bigfoot

Posted on November 18, 2009 by Lisa A. Shiel

Are researchers getting blasé about Bigfoot sightings? Another report of a hairy, bipedal creature strolling across the road… yawn.

    • Molecular Clocks Tick Too Slow? November 25, 2009

    • Disease Genetics: A Bankrupt Idea? November 23, 2009
      Last week DeCode Genetics, one of the top companies hunting for genetic keys to diseases, filed for bankruptcy.

    • No Ghost Hunting Allowed November 11, 2009
      There will be no township-sanctioned “Ghostbusters” probe at the old Crouch Cemetery later this month.
