The Cryptozoology Quest Goes On, and On, and On...

Aftenposten reports:
Monster hunter Jan-Ove Sundberg continues his search for proof of famous sea serpents and once again claims that he has evidence for the presence of Selma, the beast reputed to live in Norway's Lake Seljord.

Sundberg and his team GUST (Global Underwater Search Team) told TV 2 Nettavisen Thursday that they had logged sonar readings of a large creature in the lake, which is in the middle of Telemark county.
....
Sundberg has regularly visited Seljord in the summer to hunt for concrete proof that Norway's Loch Ness monster exists, and claimed last year to have images of the creature, but the picture quality left much to be desired and convinced no one.
And so it always is. Inconclusive sonar readings, blurry pictures, unreliable eye-witness testimony.... These only serve to whet the appetite of the monster hunters who are convinced that their quest will ultimately overturn all of science.
