All,
Confirmation bias is the tendency to interpret new evidence as confirmation of ones pre-existing ideas or theories.

Maybe there is a lot to process to get to the end result? I guess the person won’t be “right” until they actually find it. There is a lot of stuff to sift through. |

What new evidence? A lot of searchers believe they hold the answers to the mystery of Forrest's poem. Collectively the Chase is pretty much right where it has been since the early days. A couple of clues figured out by a few and no treasure. The humble approach will be the winner, the rest is just entertainment.

A couple of clues figured out by a few and no treasure. The humble approach will be the winner, the rest is just entertainment. I have to disagree with this statement. We do know there was a three or four clues solved maybe as of a couple of years ago. That is progress and his refusal to give updates and his gut feel the treasure will be found suggests progress plus he said he did not receive the answers of the clues in the correct order, does suggest progress has been made. There is no way anyone can confidently say progress has not been made as only Mr Fenn can confirm what has been accomplished. As far as new evidence it depends on what you consider evidence. If a picture of the chest is the only evidence acceptable then patience and waiting for that verdict is all you can do. Now if evidence is new material and new information the ties the clues together, then that is hard to find, but I have presented some and it is up to the reader to decide whether it is relevant. But the whole picture is required to make that judgement. |

Humble is good and equates with strength for the most part, IMO.

Wolf... sure Fenn has said someone MAY have gotten 4 clues and has mentioned correct order a couple of times. That does not equate to a significant turn of events as far as anything solid in the Chase. My comment actually had more to do with the never ending supply of wishful thinking and ideas offered by some that really add up to nothing. Fenn has actually said that the person that figures this thing out will quietly move with confidence.

Surely if you or the masses know the move has been made, then that contradicts that statement. |

All,
Here is some confirmation bias for you, maybe:
An excerpt from and email response I received on 6-5-18, from an anonymous source:
Thanks for sending me the link to your video. I had not seen it. I didn’t catch every word you said because of your voice frequency. It is an octave that I can hear well, but prevents me from understand some of your words. You have a good speaking voice and an easy going stage presence. My hearing malfunction certainly acts to my detriment.
Hmmm, when did SB 188 come out again?
So come join me on the: Non-PC, beer drinking, Thrill of the Chase talking show "The Flip Side".
Seannm
