A Conversation from February 2001
Lobo: "August 24, 2000 a report from Darryl Ellis, a cancer survivor, who swam the length of Okanagan Lake, 80 miles, to raise money for cancer research: Two ogopogos swam underneath him for an hour by Rattle Snake Island. He could see him ahead and behind him, making Ogopogo 20 feet long. One was shaped like a log the other like a box. Their color was grey/black. He was so scared he swam to the spotting boat. Not understanding Darryl's concern he was ushered back into the lake. Later, by Okanagan Lake bridge Ogopogo suddenly appeared and looked up at him with eyes as big as grapefruits."
Jose: There are two of them? And they're log-shaped and box-shaped? And he didn't get scared until they'd been swimming under him for an hour? And then he didn't tell the guys in the boat what was going on?
I think this guy's just trying to scam the million bucks. He probably wants to squander it on cancer research or something.
Lobo: "Not understanding Daryl's concern he was ushered back into the lake."
Like, yeah. Uh-huh. That proves it.
Jose: Well, sure. You can't let someone leave the lake just because he appears to be terrified.
