wow, you aint kiddin!

I'd like to see that route. Did they go up the Mississippi River or something? Would be a logical route considering the alternative

Heh heh

I'd take her from Texas to India, that would be an adventure.

Yes I looked at that on Wiki. Very interesting. At least she may have had some life left in her.

But no, The Lloyd's Registry shows her as being scrapped on May 9, 2004.

Ah well, life goes on.
