This motivational speech brought you by the guy that treats ailments with silver and hunts for Sasquatch.
No. Lets get this straight.
I never. Ever. Looked for, sought out, or considered such a thing as a Bigfoot. I have never seen a Bigfoot - I don't know what a Bigfoot is. There is no taxonomy determined to my knowledge.
While on a task of protecting others from predators - I DID find myself facing a primitive man - not human - but a butt ugly primitive man up close. Real close. In daylight, face to face, nothing between us, thirty feet away at the most. I thought these primitive men - all the variants - Neanderthal, Erectus, etc., were extinct. Every anthropologist states so. That doesn't seem to be the case. Don't know the taxonomy of this guy, either.
Shared a mountain top at 8,000' with a number of these guys for the entire Summer months until the snow drove us off the mountain. We saw seven at once, so we assume they were a family or some part of a clan. They harassed us all Summer long, throwing pebbles at the tents, and slapping the tents. The darkest black I've ever seen - photons may have struck, but they were they were absorbed. No sheen. One was reddish, and watched everyone for almost 30 minutes in plain sight. They're still up there.
If westcoastcanes would be willing, a few of us could escort him up there, make him a necklace of pork chops, and fasten him to a tree - and he could also experience what he'd agree with - is a primitive man. westcoastcanes - that offer stands. You want to go - you'll get the full meeting. Yelling for help may accelerate their "assistance." I have no idea of how you'll be treated after we go back down the mountain - but you can maybe work it out with them. Maybe one of the females is a bit lonely, and will decide you're a keeper. I have no idea, and I make no guarantees - except that you'll see them yourself. They DO seem to love to eat.
We need to get there on site a couple hours before dark - when they come out to water from a seep in the side of the mountain.
To the other subject:
Anyone with any chemical background knows that silver is a powerful antimicrobial. I like fighting microbials - bacterium, viruses, and even fungi with biophysics. They can't adapt to overcome simple physics. You rip a couple electrons from a virus - very, very tiny - it's like it explodes.
One might note that what actually worked against the "pandemic" man-created virus known as CV-19 - was compounds that destroyed them. Oddly, each one of the successful compounds also happened to be anti-parasitics. Not ticks, chiggers, etc., but microbial parasites. Each year untold hundreds of thousands get malaria - a parasitic.
And one can rid anyone of malaria in a couple days. Just not anyone using Western Medicine.
In fact, it appears to a small group of us that medicine will soon be moved into the field of biophysics - utilizing electromagnetic approaches. After all, we ARE electric creatures ourselves. One can address toxins with electrons and do what medicine says is impossible. We're working on a device as I speak. For bites - vipers, spiders, etc. Bitten, can have all that poison neutralized in less than 30 seconds. Fact.
An injection that does the same thing - but takes a half-hour to fully neutralize the venom - is also possible. Western Medicine is primitive, destructive, and the best they can do in many cases is just debride the tissue as it dies.
Just wanted to clear that up - as there's been some ignorant, unknowing, uncommon, outright stupid folks use mis-terminology who have no business with a keyboard.
My background was in a small part of the military that spent our time in remote areas - in small teams - and I tried to learn from the natives everywhere - what and how they treated sicknesses, diseases, and injuries with what some would call primitive treatments. Oddly, many things they use - is more scientifically sound than Western medicine. If it works - it works!
No use slinging a cat around just to look busy.
I know this address is a bit off topic, but felt compelled to correct a half-a**ed mis-statement by westcoastcanes.
Do well, gentlemen. I appreciate your patience.
