Spotting a Plesiosaur in the Deep

Dale Drinnon came up with this report that I have not seen before.  It confirms my core conjecture that I expected to see confirmed sooner or later.  Our plesiosaur lives in the deep.  It is not air breathing at all and it stays below the six hundred meter thermocline that separates the surface waters we do know well from the cold waters of the deep.

My efforts at completely describing this creature are now quite mature.  A number of necessary conjectures have been eyeballed and thus confirmed by separate witnesses.  Sooner or later, one of these will be captured.

The creature operates at those temperatures and breathes through external gills that look like combs around its head.  This obviously has not been confirmed yet but there it is. Importantly and wonderfully it has been observed there in the deep.

Although its presence in deep lakes is plausibly a result of a need to set eggs in a marsh as other reptiles, the possibility of live birth should also not be discounted.  In that case we are dealing with a simple desire to occupy a secure lair independent of the open ocean.  Again we still do not accept this creature’s existence in mainstream science mostly because the assumption of a need to breathe air is erroneous.  My understanding of biological oxygen allows me to change the paradigm and look.

At least our creature has been consistently showing up literally everywhere I can predict his presence.

Just posted on Facebook by Scott Mardis:

From "Without a Trace" by Charles Berlitz, 1977. I spoke to Marvin McCamis in 1997, who told me Berlitz had the date wrong and it actually happened in July 1965.

Jay Michael Cooney [of Bizarre Zoology] asked: What was the whole story?

Dale Drinnon replied: This was seen by the exploratory sub "Alvin" on a trip down into the "Tongue of the Ocean". a very deep part of the sea around Gran Bahama island, something more than a mile down. The man in the sub said he saw a creature that looked like a plesiosaur. A fellow sent me a letter a while back saying he had seen the bona fide carcass of a Plesiosaur in Scotland in 1942, and he said it looked like this one. A couple of features he mentioned made me think it could have been legitimate. Thanks for putting up a copy of this, I've been trying to get one for ages!

[The carcass in question was supposed to have been washed up by a storm near Prestwick Airport, then under construction as it was during WWII. the man said the whole head was intact, he looked into the mouth and saw teeth. This is one ofthe features which sounds legitimate. The body was eventually buried in the sand on the beach, presumably, and when seen it was about half-buried. It was not an especially large one, it was about twenty feet long. The witness was William Whammond, an ex patent attorney and writer for PURSUIT, then resident of Quebec.

On the blog which carried my xerox of the illustration of the Plesiosaur seen from a cliff in Wales also mentioned this sighting as an example of a Long Necked Sea Serpent seen to have a tail when the whole creature was clearly seen, in direct contradiction to Heuvelmans, and I assume that Scott Mardis was only following up on my statement when he scanned this.-DD]
