Richie would fit in well, actually.  He could be allied with mongers and Tyr. :bowler:

If you go through the forums and look at Richie's video analysis, he makes many leaps of faith in terms of deciding everything that looks remotely unnatural must be aircraft wreckage.  The lawsuit guy, though, was actually equating objects with rolls of toilet paper, Fred Noonan's bones, etc.  I have a feeling he was actually trolling them with his 'findings'... either that or he's completely off his rocker.

That dude found my Languish post about him via Teh Google, cross-posted this on their forums, and they had a little bitchfest about it. :showoff:

The dude found Amelia Earhart's plane at the bottom of the ocean. Did you really think that he wouldn't find your post?  :P
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Great, a forum war with crazy obsessive people. Thanks.  :lol:

Which forum are you referring to? :unsure:

I know that.  My post was supposed to be a joke about who the crazy, obsessive people are. :P

Also, I don't think the majority of the users on that forum are crazy.  I'm not convinced of their theory, but they've put an enormous amount of legit work into proving it.

This got me thinking...maybe we are both forums of crazy obsessive people, but they significantly contributed to the search for Amelia Earhart's plane and perhaps solving the greatest aviation mystery of all time. What do we have to show for ourselves?

Maybe we should have a forum mission...something we could show to the world and take pride in. I don't know that we are up to solving a great historical mystery, but surely we could create an interesting mod for a paradox game without getting sidetracked. What do you think?
