 Most Titanic buffs are familiar with one of the more remarkable coincidences associated with the sinking of that ill-fated ocean liner: Fourteen years earlier, a writer named Morgan Robertson had penned a novella entitled Futility about the largest and grandest ocean liner of its time -- considered to be unsinkable because of her multiple water-tight compartments that could be sealed off automatically in case of emergency -- which sank after striking an iceberg. Numerous passengers lost their lives because the liner did not carry enough lifeboats to accommodate everyone. Demonstrating an eery prescience, Robertson had named his ship the Titan. (After the Titanic disaster, the novella was reissued as The Wreck of the Titan.) To know the truth, please explain why you answered the way you did.  --------------------  Look at me now, I am the green fairy! A.K.A. the Recipe Queen, do you know why ?  |
