And the only inhabitants are part of the rather small navy base there. The water is so much bluer and clearer then the water in Hawaii. I think given the location, that the debris was placed on/in the skeletons. Transited through the oceans there and never saw much for trash. Those adult birds gotta by really searching far and wide to gather that much trash.

The consistency of ignorance you've been displaying lately is amazing. I'm sure you'll find some asinine way to try to prove it doesn't exist, but here's a link. Strangely, there's a picture of a dead albatross with plastic stomach contents. I'm sure it's just a big international conspiracy though.

You're just an ASS!! Did I suggest conspiracy? I have been there and its very clean and has very few human inhabitants there (maybe between 100-200). And speaking of showing one's ignorance, you seem to be doing a damn fine job of it lately! And wikipedia wouldn't be the first place I'd go for proof of anything.

Since there have been multiple international studies and reports on the issue, it seems like you did just that.

Wikipedia doesn't do it for you...
how about the necropsy of a dead albatross?

Educational paper:
Causes of mortality of albatross chicks at Midway Atoll -- Sileo et al. 26 (3): 329 -- Journal of Wildlife Diseases

You live with your head in the sand.
