As Greek mythology goes, the universe was once a big soup of nothingness. Then, two things happened: either Chaos or Gaia created the universe as we know it, or Ouranos and Tethys gave birth to the first beings.

Hi everybody, as to the Giant Footprints all around the world I recommend this week´s article on Bigfoot from findings on Mount St Helens, US. This scientific study shows types of bites in several bones indicating a three times bigger mouth than the ordinary human, also bigger teeth marks as well as the need for hands to be able to do a typical rip off. In addition some stack pilings in the neighbourhood indicated traces of human hands. I found this study very convincing and a good start for establishing the existence of some hitherto unknown humanoids. What do you´ll think?
