You are given the power to see the solution of one of history's "unsolved mysteries." What secret would you pick to uncover?

Stonehenge and crop circles for me

How did King Tut really die? Lot of speculation and research on it lately, reconstructions, but Sherlock Holmes would solve the case!

And my #2 mystery: who invented peanut butter and jelly sandwiches?:-6

This is the story that got Stephen King the idea for "Children of the Corn"

How, exactly he got from Iowa to a bunch of creepy little kids living in a corn field is beyond me. But this story got him started.

StoneHenge. Good one. I was thinking either uncovering the truth about the JFK assassination, or publishing all the paperwork and documents even remotely related to the "Phillidelphia Project"

Or what happened to Glenn Miller??

Is there a Loch Ness monster? I hope so, and I hope they never catch her.

that is the popular belief. but did the plane just "go down" or was it shot down?

Maybe he is sharing a cell on an intergalactic ship with Amelia Eirhart??:yh_alien

We may never really know

Certainly! "Little Brown Jug," "Moonlight Serenade," and my personal favorite "In the Mood."

He is an Iowa Boy. Clarinda, Iowa. Every summer the town has Glenn Miller Days. It is surprisingly a lot of fun.

Great Flick. Jimmy Stewart plays Miller. and I think it's Doris Day as Mrs Miller.

My cousin was the bass player for Glenn Miller a few years back - toured all over North America all the time. He was with them for about four years. I saw them play here when they came while he was with them - it was a great show!

No - the Glenn Miller Orchestra - not with ol' Glenn still in it!

I should have clarified it by adding the "Orchestra" part.

I would ask where Carl Jung thought the collective unconscious went - exactly. I think that may be my afterlife area.
