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

How could they not belong to Amelia Earhart?

People are weird.

I hang around a number of Warbird/Aircraft Recovery websites, and while I have no personal knowledge of the organization’s practices, to say that TIGHAR has a less than stellar reputation among the participants on them is an understatement.

WIX (Warbird Information Exchange) for instance has a 6-page thread up on this very subject titled “TIGHAR at it again”.

I found a small bone in my compost pile the other day. It could be from a turkey, or it might be from George Washington. I need $1,000,000 to research it further.

I just saw a show about Earhart on the History Channel ...

Many interesting things pointed towards people being marooned on Gardner Island ...

But, the most fascinating thing was a claim by someone who was monitoring shortwave who claimed that she heard a transmission from Earhart. She said Earhart was describing a shipwreck near where they had landed. She said she believed that Earhart said it was the SS New York ...

The SS Norwich was shipwrecked on Gardner Island 29 November 1929 ...

Either Americans will finally learn the fate of one of their most famous women, or a turtle family out there somewhere will know what happened to grandpa.
