He'd be 107 years old right now. :wink:


Ummm...

He was born in 1917. So that would make him 97.

Not a 107.

I first heard the story while riding in a car past the Bethesda Naval Hospital with a bunch of coworkers after an after work happy hour at a local Bethesda watering hole circa 1986. So- yes-even then he wouldve been pushing seventy.

Bigfoot?

Oh!

You mean "Mega" as in "million". Not the literal meaning of the Greek 'mega'- which is 'big'.

That.

And what about "gigapedes"?
