Dr. Amy Beam was kind enough to email me her report entitled, “The Kurdish Guides and the Noah’s Ark Discovery Fraud.” Please have a look. It’s a first-hand accounting (from Beam’s perspective, naturally) of certain individuals involved in the hoax.
And for those of you who will reflexively conclude that such exposure of the fraud is about insulting faith, it isn’t. So please take a breath. From the concluding pages:
A Facebook group was started in September 2011 to investigate the NAMI/MEDIA discovery and demand an audit and accounting from the NAMI/MEDIA leadership. Many church leaders and members worldwide have posted reminders that religious belief is based on faith. It is not necessary to find Noah’s Ark as proof of one’s faith or morality.
There are several film-makers backed by TV stations making documentaries in 2012 of the search for Noah’s Ark and the hoax. Hopefully, some guides will speak publicly so that finally, all of the guides who were innocent victims in this fraud may be relieved of the burden of silence and secrecy.
I saw this page as an incoming link to my site and had to laugh. Your friend is aptly named because she is full of beans. No, I am not Dr Klenck, nor do I know him. That paranoid woman is an unseemly muckracker. Her accusation that I am Dr Klenck is ridiculous and shows the level of moron you are dealing with.
The NAMI find deserves a scientific investigation and until then sensible people should hold a “wait and see” attitude. It shows poor judgement to follow the reactionary dismissal of eye-witness reports when the come from NAMI’s competitors, rivals, and various other parties who have personal agendas.
The vicissitudes of Dr Klenck’s private life may hold a great deal of tabloid interest to salivating trash-diggers, but they are irrelevant. If the structure is a hoax, that should be easy enough for a trained eye to determine by simply visiting the location.

If she turns out to be wrong, then you can send me the proof and I’ll post it. That’s the way blogs work.
