Settlement requested Sun 3rd Jan 5:31pm PST by bbadenov: Unable to find any legitimate scientific journal confirming Bigfoot's existence. Suggest this be settled. From Wikipedia; "The scientific community considers Bigfoot to be a combination of folklore, misidentification, and hoaxes, rather than a real creature.[2] In general, mainstream scientific consensus does not support the posited existence of megafauna cryptids such as Bigfoot, because of the improbably large numbers necessary to maintain a breeding population,[3] and because climate and food supply issues would make such purported creatures' survival in reported habitats unlikely." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bigfoot

Settled as 'No' Mon 4th Jan 4:59am PST by sqlman: Nope. maybe 2010 will do it...
