This quiz first posted on (01/22/10) Clue #1 (01/22/10) This isolated, out-of-the-way place, recently in the news because of a popular movie, is little known by most of us. (The atoll has no economic activity, and is perhaps best known as the island Amelia Earhart never reached. Airstrips built in the late 1930s to accommodate her planned stopover were never used, subsequently damaged, not maintained and gradually disappeared) Clue #2 (01/22/10) No one lives here, fresh water is in short supply, and if you tried to dock your boat the reefs will prove problematic. (Defense (why bother?) is the responsibility of the United States and the island is visited once every two years by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service) Howland Island The first correct answer received was submitted by: Shirley Levondosky, Scottdale, Pennsylvania USA
