If they had the bones, they could do DNA analysis, then it's thumbs up or thumbs down, and case closed.

Aaaahhhh, but then that would effectively KILL the brouhaha over Ms. Earhart's disappearance, now wouldn't it? As it is now, they can wildly speculate that she was a POW or that we will never know what truly happened or all kinds of other stupidity.

Yeah. Like bigfoot, and UFOs, there is a cottage industry built around Amelia Earhart. I wonder if her bones really "disappeared" or were just buried somewhere after concluding they were a man's bones.

American wingnuts, gotta love em'—LOL. I remember hearing rumors and stories that John Kennedy's brain disappeared, and that his real casket was shot full of holes and buried at sea!
