Research Protocols, a hoaxers nightmare. Can we get to that point?

Tim and I really have a real interest in this subject. How much time has been wasted waiting for "evidence of sasquatch" to surface? How many times have we been given the run-around? Excuses? Outright lies. What protocol can we implement to zone in on the hoaxers, identify them as such and move on. What protocol or process can we use to be as efficient as possible collecting and analyzing data and possible evidence without falling victim to the trickery and horseplay that some seem to dwell on. How to we validate data when we have little to compare it against? Some great questions and we certainly hope you can join us by either calling in or popping into the chatroom.
