The RMS Titanic when down with 1500 souls

its been 96 years. (PS i hate the movie too)

Piece in the paper today that two scientists figured out by going through the ship builders archives it was from using substandard rivets thus the amount of damage. It took three million rivets to build the Titanic and they couldn't get hold of that many within the time constraints so.................... Sounds plausible to me.

We did notice but this one was posted on the Titanic's 96th year under the sea. The other one was misleading because it hadn't been 96 years under the sea. See?

This does bring up an important point. It would be much better of people entitled their threads so that the topic can be read from the title.

Really helps cut down on the duplication and makes it easier to scan the new threads
