Indeed, a great burden for the remainder of his life, and that of the crew.

Yeah for those reasons. Titanic was too far away to be distingueshed as sinking, and the white flares, well there was nothing, sinister about them. So knowone saw the danger.

The wirless operator on the californain wired the titanic that they had stopped for the night, they were surronded by ice. Jack Phillips the wireless operator on the titaic was in the middle of cape race, a kind of gossip ring in the shipping business. The californian was 19 miles away so when their operator came through is nearly blasted phillips ears. he replyed, "shut up, shut up, i'm in the middle of cape race." So the operator on the californian shut of his radio and went to bed. Why didn't phillps take that message to captian smith? If he had i believe smith would have stopped for the night. the man had a spottless record, he never would have risked the lives of so many had he have known.

cape race was like a gossip ring. He was too busy gossiping and sending out passanger messages.
