  On the basis of angle-scanned photoemission data recorded using unpolarised
radiation, with high (E,k) resolution, and an extremely dense sampling of
k-space, we resolve the current controversy regarding the normal state Fermi
surface (FS) in Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_8 (Bi2212). The true picture is simple,
self-consistent and robust: the FS is hole-like, with the form of rounded tubes
centred on the corners of the Brillouin zone. Two further types of features are
also clearly observed: shadow FSs, which are most likely to be due to short
range antiferromagnetic spin correlations, and diffraction replicas of the main
FS caused by passage of the photoelectrons through the modulated Bi-O planes.
