Highly accomplished ancestors make you look like a failure, you didn't measure up. You didn't found a great corporation, you didn't find the biggest gold field in Nevada, you didn't find a cure for the common cold then give the patent rights to the world.

...you didn't get lost in your most high profile navigation gig. Still a neat connection, my girls are very pro Amelia.

Amelia was certainly a feisty broad. I read about all the things she accomplished and some about how she lived, but I wonder how much opposition she faced. Maybe she was so larger than life and had so many fans, maybe that intimidated her opponents?

Have you met Amelia Earhart?

Don't you think there could have been two (2) feisty broads in the history of the planet? Or has there just been room under the sun for one?

Read what Pancho, Amelia, and a whole squadron of them did in unison across the country.

Just had lunch with Amelia. At least that is what she called herself.

Aliens do not get so emotional. So xoxoxoBruce is not one. Racist he may be. Since that is also an example of an emotional adult. We can talk to aliens. The emotional only understand violence, insults, scolding and the Donald's decrees.
