Thanks for the update! Just read the thread for the first time. Very interesting.
/off to google more....
I thought the DNA was too degraded for a confirmation?

I thought so, too. But apparently they're making some sort of statement this week so I guess something turned up? I don't know exactly what Its about. She can't tell me until after the press release

^Thanks for resurrecting this thread, Whateverlolawants. Partly because I'm interested to hear about the press conference but also partly because I'd forgotten about it and just had a good laugh all over again.
How could I forget Cokie the Crab and her pearls???

Could this be it?
U.S. News - US joins search for Amelia Earhart remains after new photo analysisUS joins search for Amelia Earhart remains after new photo analysis
Citing new analysis of a photo that could show wreckage of Amelia Earhart's plane, the Obama administration on Tuesday said it was joining a search in June to finally solve the mystery of America's greatest female aviator.
"We can be as optimistic, audacious as Earhart," Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said at a ceremony in Washington, D.C., to announce U.S. support for the expedition. "There is great honor and possibility in the search itself."
The search by The International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery will focus on the remote island of Nikumaroro, in what is now the Pacific nation of Kiribati.
The group believes Earhart and her navigator Fred Noonan might have managed to land on the island, then known as Gardner Island, and that they could have survived for a short time after disappearing on July 2, 1937.
Other historians believe they crashed into the ocean. But conspiracy theories, including claims that they were U.S. government agents captured by the Japanese before World War II, abound despite having been largely debunked.
New analysis of a contemporary photo at Nikumaroro shows what some people believe could be a strut and wheel of the plane protruding from the water.
In 2010, bone fragments were found on the island that the group believes might be of Earhart or Noonan. Other artifacts have been recovered there as well that suggest the two might have lived for days or weeks after landing on a reef.
The private group is putting up $500,000 for the search, while the U.S. will provide logistical support.
The expedition will coincide with the 75th anniversary of Earhart's departure on the ill-fated attempt to become the first woman to fly around the world.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Lola, your friend has such a cool job. I'm jealous.
Coffee is my happy drug
Most of the people working on the dig do this as a 'second job'. Don't get me wrong, my friend has her masters in anthropology and is *very qualified*, but there isn't a whole lot of money in what she's doing here. Really this is more about the prestige/interest. She teaches beginners ballroom dancing as her day job, lol!
