Search For Evi Nemeth Continues

Posted by timothy on from the to-seek-and-to-find dept.

They've managed to get more images from DigitalGlobe of the drift area, but now need help looking through the pictures. If you've got some free time, you might be able to help save some lives."

    Were they highly trained survivalists? Sorry, but they called off the search for a reason.

    They called off the search because statistically it's unlikely that anyone could have survived at sea that long.

    But if it were my loved ones, without proof that they died at sea, I'd still hold out the hope that perhaps they washed up on an island somewhere and are living in Gilligan's Island style Tiki huts.

    This is a private effort, so you don't have to participate if you don't want to.
