Amelia Earhart: American Hero?!

Everyone knows that Amelia Earhart died while attempting to fly across the Pacific Ocean, but what if she didn't? What if instead of disappearing forever, she resurfaced in Malibu in the 1990's having not aged at all in some sort of "Flight of the Navigator" process? Would our opinions of her change if she snubbed offers from Boeing and several lucrative book deals and decided instead to join the porn industry under the alias "Inspector Gagdet?" I wonder if the Smithsonian would remove all traces of her historical memorabilia if she broke onto the set of "Ally McBeal" at gunpoint during a live episode and drunkenly shouted into the camera that she was the one who carved the Rosetta Stone and that archaeologists everywhere should kiss her ass before shooting Calista Flockhart and puking.

These are the thoughts I have when I can't sleep.
