It turns out that "Elan" has put out "hoax twitters" in the past.

Supposedly, someone who was (supposedly) on the plane who knows "Elan" said that Diane was on the plane as well, but that person is a professional comedian by trade.

It would not surprise me if this entire twitter enterprise, the whole notes, drama, etc., (we never see a pic of Diane, we just see notes and drinks) was a piece of performance art, down to the note from the "relative of Diane" put up on the internet.

The fake stuff this guy has done before includes hand written notes. Left by "others" in one case!

This chain jerking stuff is popular on the internet nowadays. It's supposed to be "ironic" or something!

Anyway, make of this what you will: http://melissawashere.wordpress.com/2013/11/29/why-isnt-anyone-questioning-the-diane-story/#comment-2051
