Tom,
What exactly is the answer? When you say “even though the answer's obvious” it still sounds like wishful thinking to me. You believe it’s a plesiosaur…you want it to be a plesiosaur…therefore it is a plesiosaur. Specifically on Ogopogo; http://www.csicop.org/si/2006-01/ogopogo.html
I think roads (roads do not cause pollution, and if they do cause aggravation then the tax dollars might fix the aggravating road) are far more important than chasing a mythical creature. However I do agree with you about the “pointless war”.

Well that's what I believe most of these lake monsters are. Theyre reported for the most part as being huge, long-necked, reptilian animals with flippers. What other known animal besides a plesiosaur can be described like this?

I'm not talking about the roads. I'm talking about the thousands of cars sitting idly in traffic because of road construction. And when I say "biological research", i don't just mean investigating these creatures. That's one of the topics. The others could be more in-depth research about cures for cancer and other life-threatening illnesses, making more fuel-efficient machines and automobiles that are more environmentaly friendly (yes i know we're already doing that), ecological research and environmental preservation, etc.

the dragon is called Wilma and she aint a very happy dragon...or perhaps its name was Puff...oh yeah it WAS puff. Yeah me and him used to hang and relax and stuff. Maybe this Mbembe character/reptile is just a rhyme character trying to chill...jeez i bet he reads these forums from his African river bank cave and ****** himself!
