Specs say bulkheads are now welded , not riveted.
It's the same look with modern tech, radar, satellite tech etc

I don't think it's necessary to build a replica. Why? It's a symbol of failure and death.

I love to cruise but No thanks.
I still have a sailors belief in luck, and I dont think a vessel with that name would be lucky.
I rode 2 different subs both good boats, with good crews AND LUCKY!

Besides it's just plain COOL to Titanic buffs Really.... cool? I don't see anything cool about the Titanic. What are they saying??..... Oh here, this is how it should have been. Sorry we got it wrong the first time and all of those people died. This one is better.

The whole history is an interesting draw for thousands, like the civil war if you will. We just can't get enough of it.
I'm constantly studying the whole engineering aspect of the ship given what they have discovered and uncovered.

Latest thinking is Titanic sunk because of a mirage. We usually think of a mirage as seeing something that's not there. In the Titanic's case the mirage effect caused the lookout to not see something that was there. Read more about it here.

Yeah, but I'm opposed to a Civil War II, for much the same reason I (and I suspect Cowboyz) don't think Titanic II is a good idea.

Civil War II happens often, called re-enactments
