Bill was a great guy. I liked him a lot. RIP Bill.
How old was he Duncan, do you know?
-
Did he really research Sasquatch, or is "the boss" having a laugh?
(Sincere question, no offense intended to anyone. Please don't ban me for this.)

He was just 63, Dennis.

Wow. Reminds me of Jack White, of the famed "faked" moon landing crowd.
I wish no ill on the dead, but Bill should not get a pass, just because he is gone.
He once promoted a "blood spatter " expert, who could tell, from a 2d film, that there was a shot from the front.
Thankfully, Tom Purvis pointed out his foolishness.
Let us not forget Badgeman. :)

Sad news, indeed. Rest in Peace, Bill.

Was this footprint found behind the fence on the Grassy Knoll?

Possibly, but that doesn't prove he shot anybody ;)

Yes. Probably he or she was brought in just to keep people out of the area.

Obviously, all people wearing shoes in Dealey Plaza should have been arrested.

Maybe he was attempting to squeeze into the sewer.

Bill Miller seems to be getting a bit of an Irish wake here. I think he would have appreciated that.
True. I usually don’t wait until someone dies before I make fun of them. And I wouldn’t have done so in this case had I heard of his CT and Bigfoot interest while he was still alive.
-
In his years on the Ed Forum, Bill would occasionally mention his interest in Bigfoot. To my recollection it was an interest, in that he was not a proponent that Bigfoot was real. It was just something he had fun with, kinda like some Brits have fun with Nessie.
For those LNs taking this as a sign he was cognitively impaired, however, let me set you straight. Bill was what you would probably call a reasonable CT, in that he was an ardent defender of Gary Mack, and the authenticity of the Zapruder film.
In the eyes of some CTs, of course, this made him a LN.
RIP

Was Bill Miller a Bigfoot Believer or someone who just had an interest in it?
Clearly, he did believe that Bigfoot was a real flesh and blood animal. That would put him in the rational ‘half’ of the Bigfoot believers. Just as he was, from what I heard, in the rational ‘half’ of the CTers.
Was Bill Miller cognitively impaired?
He certainly did not appear to be cognitively impaired. But he did not have a skeptic’s mind set. It appears he put too much emphasis on what he remembers seeing and what others report seeing. Humans have unreliable perceptions and unreliable memories. He does attempt to use a scientific approach. Analyzing footprint casts. Analyzing film. But a true skeptic would conclude:
• Footprints can be faked.
• Photographs can be faked.
• Film can be faked.
• It is unbelievable, that no bodies have turned up, or a Bigfoot fatally shot. Yosemite Park, a small fraction of the wilderness, has a half dozen black bears killed each year in auto accidents. It defies belief that such an animal could year after year, over a huge range, avoid being run over by logging trucks or other vehicles.
• DNA technology has lowed the bar tremendously. No need for a body. Just find the scat from the beast and you will have compelling evidence. But, while bears do go in the woods, it appears that Bigfoot does not.
Have I said that Bill Miller was cognitively impaired?
No. I’m just having a little fun with his beliefs. I believe his false beliefs have more to do with having the wrong ‘philosophy’, the wrong way of looking at the world, then being cognitively impaired. The wrong way of looking at the world causes more false beliefs than people being cognitively impaired.

I'm sorry to disagree Pat, but I had quite a few PM 'chats' with Bill, there's no doubt in my mind that Bill took cryptozoology very seriously. I even got the impression this was his main interest, JFK only came second. I didn't really share Bill's interest or convictions but I certainly never regarded Bill to be cognitively impaired. Yes, Bill certainly was "a reasonable CT" I used to enjoy his posts immensely...especially the 'battles' he had with ole Jack White. lol
PS I remember one such battle that lasted for weeks, Jack seriously accused Bill of being an imposter!! He said he'd met him once in Dealey Plaza and insisted he looked nothing like him. Poor ole Jack, certainly not a reasonable CT. lol

Tell me about it John. Some of those ED members even make Cakebread look normal. lol

Well, compared to Judith Vary Baker, I am perfectly well adjusted!
And we know that's not true. :)
