I was thinking the same thing. I would rather die in the crash than live out my life (however long or short) as a castaway on a deserted island.

“Amelia Earhart was definitely a striking woman.”

A friend of mine (deceased) studied her intensely. He claimed she was a lesbian which seems to be borne out by her lifestyle.

I've always heard of a 'sextant.' The site referencing the Discovery Channel clearly calls it a sexton (a term I'd always associated with the person taking care of a cemetery):

Yes, it says 'sexton'

I have often wondered why AE took the southern route round the world rather than the northern route through Russia and Alaska. Wiley Post (the greatest aviator most Americans have never heard of) flew the northern route solo four years previous and had no problem with navigation (no 2500 mile stretches of open water).

...the bones appeared to be part of a human finger, although they could also be from a turtle,...

Could be this girl then:

I agree. I’m usually into curvy chicks, and she’s certainly the anthisises of that, but she had something, for sure. And that Lockheed was one great looking-plane for what that’s worth...

Greenwish Mean Time

Isn't that a new movie by the guy who wrote Serpico?

It's called:

Greenwish - Mean Time

And tells the fictional story of America after the Greens get their wish and Americans become prisoners in an ecological and sustainable imposed-apocalyptic America.

The point being that she looks like a lesbian. Not that theres anything wrong with that, of course.
