"To See a World in a Grain of Sand,
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand,
And Eternity in an hour."

   William Blake - Auguries of Innocence

"We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature, and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate of having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein we err, and greatly err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth."

   Henry Beston - The Outermost House

This website is dedicated to the memory of my good friend Scott Norman, who so kindly established it for me back in 1998, and whose tragically early death in 2008 aged just 42 robbed America and the world of not only a very talented and dedicated cryptozoologist but also a great humanitarian. Your contributions to cryptozoology will never be forgotten, Scott; I am proud to have known you and to have been one of your friends.

I also wish to remember here the British actor Chris Blake (1949-2004). I first came to know Chris back in the late 1970s when he had just starred in two very successful British TV series - the sit-com 'Mixed Blessings' and the sumptuous dramatisation of H.E. Bates's classic novel 'Love For Lydia'. Chris also released the record single pictured below, BEFORE the Travolta/Newton John version; and during the 1980s he went on to star in the highly successful sit-com 'That's My Boy' with Mollie Sugden (still reshown as a cult-status show in the States), as well as 'Middlemarch', 'Brookside', 'Doctor Who', and other popular shows. I lost touch with Chris in later years, only to be shocked to the core when I discovered that in 2004 he had died of cancer. Chris was a great guy and a fine actor, and like Scott he was taken from this world at far too young an age.
