    Oh can I play too? 😁
    New word of the day for today is one of my favorites:

    penultimate (pronounced “pen ultimate”)

    It means second to last in order.

    Example: At the time of this posting, Wolfheathen’s post was the penultimate reply in this thread.

    Who’s got tomorrow’s word? M99? 😂

    Yeah and who the heck is this Darrel the Forest Guy he’s talking about? 😂

    It’s funny we were just talking about an ape suit in that other thread. We need to have him do some thermal testing for @Steve_E!!

    Maybe a second question should be asked, “Who here has an ape suit?”

    @Andrew_C Are you asking about fiction or non-fiction? Sounds like you mean fiction.

    Since thermal imaging is only reading heat, a lot depends on the background heat or lack thereof. One thing that thermal cameras (at least all the ones I’ve tested) don’t read is air temperature. Try using a hair drier and see what I mean.
    Regarding an ape suit – if it was kept warm until donned and the surrounding trees and ground were significantly cooler than the suit, it would show up pretty hot. But a suit would likely acclimate to the outside temperature given enough time, and it could potentially block the heat signature of the human inside except for exposed areas like eyes and mouth.
    Regarding a hair-covered creature, thicker hair and dense hair coverage would also conceal the body heat to a degree but again, there has to be a significant delta T to show up on a thermal camera.

    FLIR is pretty good about including a temperature reading on the crosshairs. That’s very useful information when trying to determine what you’re seeing. An ape suit could be 10 degrees warmer than the area surrounding it and it would show up hot. If the actual temperature reading of the suit is 50 degrees F and the trees are around 35-40 degrees F, then that makes the “hot target” a little less likely to be a warm body, even though it appears to be hot. If the same target was reading 85 degrees F, then that changes things.

    AI was modeled after humans and studies human behavior. It’s no mystery why it gravitates to depravity. It doesn’t even need dark forces to manipulate it behind the curtain to become a problem for humanity.
    What it DOES need is a restrainer, and I believe the Holy Spirit will handle that until the Rapture/Tribulation. I don’t plan on attending that after-party, so no worries here!

    One thing I’ve found is that with Sasquatch, there are no rules. The dos and don’ts work here but not there. What draws them in today repels them tomorrow. What ol’ Johnny does every time he goes out and has an experience doesn’t help ol’ Jane when she goes out to the same place.

    I’ve driven myself mad trying to avoid all those things they say not to do. Maybe the rules apply to individual Sasquatch, but as a whole they seem to be like big hairy snowflakes. Each one unique like humans are.

    I wonder if they have a Gen Z problem, too?😂

    It’s just a little too risky right now. A local sheriff’s deputy told my friend they pull a lot of bodies out of the Sam from being dumped out there. It’s an hour’s drive from Houston, the fourth largest city in the US so of course it’s going to have that kind of activity.
    But this is a little different as it seems they’re out there moving around off-trail. David (my friend who ran across them) was with his brother that night when they came up behind them on the trail. David stopped and let them walk past them and go ahead. They were avoiding eye contact and didn’t say a word as they passed, like they were very “mission focused” as he puts it. David made a quick decision (that probably saved their lives) and started walking back the opposite direction from where these guys went. Had he continued on, a quick ambush could’ve happened without any of them firing a shot. I don’t think they wanted to draw any attention with a gun fight (yes David was visibly armed with a 9mm and a 44 magnum) but a couple of surprise machetes would do the job quietly if they got close enough.

    Are they growing weed out there? Maybe

    Could they have been smuggling product or trafficking humans out there, just hiding out for a little while and moving after dark? Maybe more likely.

    If I was to go back out there anytime soon, it would be before dark. I just need to get the mics up and get out. Unfortunately now any tree knocks or strange vocals could be these guys communicating and not the target subject I’ve been looking for. I really don’t want to record these guys because I have to go back to get the mics. Even during the day it could be risky.

    I wonder how a Sasquatch would react to a human on mushrooms laughing uncontrollably at him? It would be a good test of their “humanity” to see if they are affected by contagious laughter. In other words, could they keep from giggling along?

    Can’t help but wonder if they have a sense of humor.

    @M99 – went camping in the LBL over Independence Day weekend and picked up an audio recording console from a guy in Nashville. I’m rebuilding my Pro Tools studio for some upcoming projects. Been writing music more than running out to the forest lately, all while working a full time job in HVAC! Lol

    I just talked to my friend who had the sighting. He was out Friday night and ran across three guys with rifles and pistols (cartel members, in his opinion) who were acting very sketchy. He got lucky that he walked out of there. That was right in my research area. Now I’m a little concerned that if I go off trail, I’m going to run into booby traps near a grow site. Or worse.

    That’s Martin from Camping With Sasquatch. He’s become a friend and I took him to those areas. Lots of activity there during the Springtime.
    Had a recent sighting relayed to me from another buddy of mine in that same area, two weeks ago. It was hiding behind a tree and got “busted,” acted like it didn’t know what to do or where to go. Started side stepping to get away.

    Wow Addie
 excellent reporting! Makes me excited about it and I don’t even live there!

    @G&S You asked the same question before in a post from last September. I guess you didn’t like the suggestion I gave you then since you’re still asking?

    Just a side note, but when your username is plural suggesting a nice strong couple (that’s cool, I get it), nobody knows who they’re talking to. Is it George or Shekinah? Lol

    Maybe do what Addie does and put your name at the end so we know who we’re talking to. 🙂
