#1 I know, row about a mile into the Loch and dip a swab in the water and then place the wet little wick in a test tube and then hurry back and have it EXTENSIVELY analyzed SCIENTIFICALLY. Then tell us all what you find....DNA wise, I mean.

OR swab the wet rocks selectively and be sure and do a representative swab on a few algae and fish selectively , carefully now, be thorough.. Have we missed anything?

Maybe drop an anchor into the bottom mud, DNA sample that too. Just to be sure. Loch Ness is a BIG place...and Nessie has to have a Breeding Population to maintain a "monster" for how many hundreds of years , is it? Not just one, mind you. Say a breeding population of say...fifty creatures, at least. Got that?

#2 Took a bunch of pictures ontop of Urquhart castle (the ruins you occasionally see in Loch Ness pictures). Sunny day, bunch of boats and waterskiiers in the water.

Later the film was developed and we saw the monster. Dark shape sticking up out of the water with a wake, looked like a dinosaur head.

Then we looked through all the photos and found the same shape again, this time you could see the shape was a bit clearer, you could see the water skis, the outstretched arms holding the tow rope were clear and no longer looked like a snout, and the boat was barely in the shot.

Couldn't help wonder how many sightings involved a similar event with the second photo unavailable or destroyed.
