Brothers...
About a week ago I read this awesome book my got my dad, and it had some fascinating stories and the one that was a hit to me was:
"Not Even God Can Sink This Ship"
It was talking about the Titanic and about 20 miles from where the ship had sank there was a ship called the Californian and if the operator was not asleep at the time the Titanic sent the message, all those people could have lived, well most of them.
Just a little interesting fact.

there are so many mysteries surrounding the titanic, like even though it was a foggy night and there were ice warnings, why the captain neither treaded with caution nor put up extra sentries. On the contrary, someone suggested he make the New York papers by arriving early and going fully speed ahead (I forget whose Idea that was, it might've been his)
...among other things I cannot remember. My friend and I have made a conspiricy theory that it was all Steven Spielburg's idea, and back in those 1800s he sold his soul to the devil for a brilliant way to make money, and the devil flung Steven into the future with a detailed storyboard and contact information regarding the sunken cruise
On a side note, I've decided I can't stay away from this guild, so short of bannination y'all're stuck with me talk2hand

well you can't really blame a guy for falling asleep, I mean it's not like somebody ran up to him and said "in a couple of minutes the largest ship of all time will be hitting an iceberg and thousands of people will die, so please wake up before they send an SOS signal, kthxbai"
on a less enthusiatic note-- yay... Roger's here... no really... this is me happy JK <33333 for Roger ^^

rolleyes Well if yo want to play like that.
If the people didnt get on the Titanic they wouldnt have died
If the Titanic hadnt been BUILT they wouldnt have died.
Trust me there are a LOT more ways more people could have been saved. Captains arent suppose to stay up JUST to wait for SOS signals XD Captains also are suppose to follow warnings and not run into icebergs THAT DIDNT HAPPEN EITHER.
You could have picked a better enemy. Like the lack or Life Jackets and Life Boats. talk2hand
Stupid Californian xd
