About two years ago, I asked our @Mindysan33 in her professional capacity if Amelia Earhart (of whom I hadn’t heard that much before) was, unlike Lindbergh (who apparently had some fascist liaison at some point) could still be considered a role model.
I was really impressed when I had read about her, so I had my doubts.
I’m still happy that apparently, no terrible flaws and errors of judgement presented themselves. I like her. She was cool before cool was cool. She was daring when to be daring would have been considered an insult. And I even like the idea of coconut crabs eating her remains. Crab cargo cult, anyone?
