Sometimes I worry I'm trying too hard, and then other times I decide you know what, just let the Billy Ocean-inspired headline rip, even if 2 out of 3 colleagues didn't get the reference:

THE NEW YORK TIMES:
That iguana DOES look vindicated I have to say 😂
A screenshot from The New York Times website shows a portrait of an iguana in profile and the headline "This is What a Vindicated Iguana Looks Like."

Great story that takes a lot of turns but the top part, about how the solution was found, reminds me of a 1990s @ajjacobs.bsky.social article where he brought a police detective to a murder mystery weekend at a hotel, and while the other guests were playing by the rules...
