Rowen--Correct. Ask a question if you'd like.

MGY Friend-- Actually the man who owns that Titanic/Californian link I posted above told me that's what he heard. And if you ever email him, he's like a Titanic Encyclopedia. He knows his work. I think the best work we'll find is from Walter Lord tbh. His research is done to a T, and interesting. Anyways, Ghosts of Titanic is still very good. Pellegrino does much research as well. I think it's good to read various books to get a more sound grip on things. I did notice one error. He wrote that the last rocket fired from Titanic was at 1:20am when we know for a fact that it was 1:45am. Odd how he missed that. I'll look up the part of anoxic beds.

P.S.- The only part about the new movie(Titanic 97') I liked was the actual history and seeing what it very may well have looked like. The Jack and Rose story proves the point that there were many loved ones lost. Which I can understand James Cameron's point. I still think A Night to Remember is the ultimate Titanic movie. PLUS, it gives me my Californian fix and a lot of it. haha.

Glad too, that people find Titanic interesting. I've been a die hard fan since I saw the movie in 1997. But not of the love story. I bought books, CDs, etc. It died away toward the end of High School but now it's back!
