Next message: Peggie Hall: "Re: T&T: HOLDING TANK"
July 25, 2006, is the 50th anniversary of the sinking of the last luxury
liner, the SS Andrea Doria. For those morbidly curious, a detailed account of the
sinking and the subsequent investigation is available at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Andrea_Doria
The report goes into detail about the ship's stability problem, the magnitude
of the collision, empty tanks, lifeboat launching, crew responsibility, etc.
In short, all the questions raised on this list. For maritime necrophiles, it
is an exciting read.
