What mystery, yet to be solved, stick with you?

I was just reading an article about Amelia Earhart, and how there is newly discovered reports that when she disappeared, two people with seperate radios, heard her call for help and she stated her name, where she thought she was, and you could also hear a semi-irrational man in the background (her fellow traveling partner for that journey). And it bugs me. I don't like thinking two people were on a deserted island back in 1937 and they lived a few months before dying. That just makes me feel sad. And I know it's semi-silly because it was years ago, but still.
So, I would like to know, which unsolved mystery 'gets' you? Perhaps one just sticks out in your mind that you truly want to see solved? I know the Zodiac killer and the killer of Jon Benet Ramsey are some that come to my mind. What do you think?

I can't think of her name right now, but I'm talking about the young girl last year who disappeared while on a trip. I believe she was on a senior class trip when it happened and she was in another country. I know there was a lot of press coverage about that but I don't think her killer was ever found. I would also like to know who killed Jon Benet Ramsey.

I had not heard that, but yes that is sad. If he really loved her it seems that he would have stood by her knowing she was trying to find her daughter. But it is possible that there is more to the story than that. I certainly hope they find her killer because since she hasn't been found she more than likely is gone.

The one mystery that comes to my mind is where is the Ark of the Covenant? When I read the Bible it does not give clues to where it might be except that it may be hidden in some cave.

I don't have any particular mystery rthat sticks to my mind. However, I am very intrigue of the Bermuda Triangle. Imagine a lot of things disappeared in that area mysteriously. Ships, airplanes, people and what not. What's the cause of the dissappearance? Was it UFO's or certain unforseen phenomena of the great unknown? Isn't it scary? Theere's not even a hint of where or what could have happened to them... That is always in my mind... Nobody has any clues to the Bermuda Traingle..

I've heard a lot of people claim to have solved the Bermuda Triangle mystery. Some say it is that because of the point on the Equator,it screws up the compass of the planes. The electrical interference really is plausible to me, but I don't know.

Oh I LOVE mysteries! When I was a kid I used to have this big book of mystery things. Your topic made me search about the new mysteries out there. :) The best mystery that needs to be solved for me is the oak island treasure. I mean, up to this day, there's no one able to dig past a 100 feet--I think. :)

I just read the same article, it would be nice to have that one solved conclusively as well as the ones you mentioned. The only other I can think of offhand is the Lindburg kidnapping.

for me, i was hoping that someone could prove that area 51 is really exists and to prove that aliens and UFO's being caught and discovered were brought there, they experimented all of it and they just keep it as a secret. i'm still wondering if it really exists or not.

"Yellow-cake Joe" Mystery Solved (Sort Of)
There are still lots of mysteries associated with this so-called issue, including why there's an investigation without a crime in the first place, but the thing that has always stumped me was why the Bush Administration just didn't undermine "Yellow-cake Joe's" authenticity by pointing out that his report said just about the opposite of what he was claiming in his NYT Op-ed, and on CNN.

There are many mysteries like Amelia Earhart that I like to read about and see different theories on what might have happened. A few of these are "Lizzie Borden", "Jack the Ripper", "The Butcher's Dozen", and of course some of the other mysteries like Roenoak, Stonehedge and the Bermuda Triangle. I just find them fascinating and really enjoy seeing the different theories that come up about them.

I think it's more fun to speculate. Finding out the truth might be nice but over all I think it's the coming up with the different theories that make it interesting. It's the intrigue that pulls us in.

For me right now is Bermuda Triangle. I read so many weird stories about it and yet never a sufficient explanation. There has been numerous people and objects disappeared into thin air in this area I just don't get it! Some did return but from what I've read so far, they didn't know or didn't remember and they would come up with awkward stories like seeing prehistoric animals or certain extinct ethnics living somewhere in this area. It's strange because how come none of us ever heard or seen these too? This is the era of advanced communication technology, impossible nobody knows anything about that. I'm guessing that some people decided not to share what they know. But then again, why?? Just a thought!

I'd like to know if the government really did cover up an incident at Roswell. Also in Australia there is the Beaumont Kids mystery that I think is still unsolved. In the 1960s there was a family on holiday and the kids went to the beach and never came home.
Then there's also biggest mystery of them all-the dawning of time. The universe's conception. Thisis is where religion and science clash and I don't think that mystery will ever be solved!

Most definately, Jon Benet Ramsey. It irks me that someone would take her young life right in her own home. The poor baby girl must have been so scared. I really hope this case gets solved, but it probably won't.
The OJ Simpson is another case I want to see solved.
Michael Jackson and the little boys needs to have some closure. I think his money and fame bought out the jury.

I'm an English history buff and I wonder about the bones of the two princes found in the Tower of London. I still think that Henry Tudor had them killed and not their uncle Richard III.

Mine are the murderer of the Black Dahlia, those people who've dissappeared over the Bermuda Triangle, who killed JFK and if Marilyn Monroe really killed herself or not, plus... every single magic trick that David Blaine does. I mean, really, who knows these?

Bermuda Triangle (some THINK it has been solved, but i dont think has been) and how the Pyramids were formed (lots of different explanations on this one). I also agree about Amelia Earhart and Natalee Holloway.

What a great question, I read with great interest all of the responses..wondering when Area 51 and OJ would come in.
Since I read 'The DaVinci Code' I have wondered about the Shroud of Turin and and if Jesus did marry Mary M and did reproduce.
I think there are just so many mysteries...
