20150907 – Daivd Paulides - Strange Disappearances - Live Chat Thread

[RoseGirl]

Gotta be dimensional.

[Juan Cena]

FBI

I believe the Park Service is under the Dept. of the Interior.

[Stranger929]

has he ever given a theory to these disappearances?

No, he never does. He leaves that to us.

I think bigfoot is implied but there's no way to say for sure.

[TheMan WhoFell ToEarth]

Somehow this is the first time I'm hearing Paulides. Enjoying it already.

Ditto. Went out of my way to listen live tonight to see what the fuss is.

[EvB]

Okay - how do they know the intelligence of these people? SOME I can understand, but seriously?

[QuantumMystics]

[JamesMcDonald]

Is he going to offer some conjecture this time with his further research ?
Wildmen of the woods, portals, red-haired giant cannibals ?

No, he doesn't conjecture.  He just offers the facts as he researches the cases.  It's the ex-cop in him.  He refuses to make guesses.

[Noorynoid]

No more park visits for me even though I have a free disabled pass.

[(Sandman) Logan-5]

Maybe national parks locations are selected because of their proximity to the hollow earth entrances?

Good point. A majority of national parks have areas that are off-limits to visitors.

[WanagoBleu]

FAERIE.  Sounds like old folk tales of Faerie legends.

[Gassy Man]

or ...dont forget

"sumfin strange is going on there..geez"

Haha!

[AppealPlay]

No, he never does. He leaves that to us.

[SciFiAuthor]

I've heard this guy before. He makes for a creepy interview as I recall.

[popple]

Angelsh like thing?

[PrairieGhost]

Wouldn't the target people be the ones that would most likely get lost on average?

[jazmunda]

No, he never does. He leaves that to us.

I think bigfoot is implied but there's no way to say for sure.

I don't think there's anything wrong with that. Better that then he says it's definitely some BS thing.

[GuerrillaUnReal]

I'm still high off the Mad Man episode. Not sure I can bring the A game tonight.

[Gassy Man]

It's ChillicoTHEE, Ohio, Mr. newsfellow.

[Pixel Ghost]

Did he try to get his senator or representative to file the FOI request?  They usually get better responses, particularly if they determine the Dept of Interiors budgets.

[AppealPlay]

I don't think there's anything wrong with that. Better that then he says it's definitely some BS thing.

Bigfoot is real.  He lives on Mars and vacations on Earth from time to time.  Ed Dames told me so.

[JamesMcDonald]

No.  It's the FBI.

The FBI has primary jurisdiction over homicide investigations in National Parks.

So glad I'm not the only English Nazi.

[Hautex]

A close friend was on the Carlsbad Caverns board and even he was kept away from some site info that was puzzling on the long hike down instead of the elevator

[QuantumMystics]

Mr.Jackson your phones ringing...get out of debt now!

[munbeam666]

I'm both intrigued but skeptical. One one hand, this country STILL has a lot of open space, especially here out west. We still have lots of wilderness. Its easy to get lost, if you don't know what you are doing

[EvB]

Is disappearance in the homicide category? That would make sense.

[trostol]

injured via pillow fight..idiots

[popple]

I'm still high off the Mad Man episode. Not sure I can bring the A game tonight.

I lost count of how many times I have listened to that interview after about 5.

[EvB]

That's one hell of a pillow fight. Jerks.

[JamesMcDonald]

In many of the cases Paulides researches there is sufficient evidence for homicide.
