99 years ago...
« on: April 15, 2011, 04:23:37 PM »
Anyone realize 99 years ago this morning was the sinking of the RMS Titanic killing over 1500 souls.

its sort of amazing, how brittle the steel was for it to sink, but yet how strong its held up all this time underwater, though its time is now limited.

Sadly your right, the Titanic is rusting away at around 300 pounds per day I think I heard. Its so sad that something so big, could be taken away and lost forever.
