It was a bit more than a year after Cameron's <I>Titanic</I> had been released, so a lot of the passengers immediately identified with the earlier ship's story (with humor or horror, depending on the person). It also sank slowly, and everyone was rescued.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3024771680506727521.post-13126550640378660932007-04-09T06:30:00.000-07:002007-04-09T06:30:00.000-07:00Daniel, good post.

But I'm sure that I would end up in third class.<BR/><BR/>It would be marvelous to go on an ocean liner, I know my uncle has gone on two I believe. Like I have always said, the ocean liners of today would out rank the Titanic in luxury, but none of these liners have caught the world view like the Titanic did. I believe the Titanic set a new standard for ocean liners!<BR/><BR/>No I have not heard about the Sea Diamond, but I will have to look it up!<BR/><BR/>I'm very glad you like reading my blog.<BR/><BR/>Grandma,<BR/><BR/>I have often thought about the first class people that paid massive amounts of money to go too the same place on the same ship, and would get there at the same time. But at the end, there were some third class passengers that were able to get on a lifeboat, while first class passengers died. What I mean by that is just because you paid an outrages sum of money didn't mean you would survive if the ship sank.<BR/><BR/>I would definitely say it affects people today, but not near as big as it did in 1912-1914!!!<BR/><BR/>Thank you for the comment!Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03407654772361090579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3024771680506727521.post-82343023310831478942007-04-08T22:29:00.000-07:002007-04-08T22:29:00.000-07:00Very good description, Daniel. All of that beauty ...Very good description, Daniel. All of that beauty and wealth and yet those that died all died the same. I wish there was a book written about how it effected all of those and those that knew them that were saved from that awful fate. I know some has been written but I am sure much was lost. It is still effecting people today.

However, I'm afraid the most I can swing is a third class ticket, and if I save up for a while.<BR/><BR/>I'd like to get a chance to be on an ocean liner someday (my sister's gone on two), although nothing today would match the luxury of the <I>Titanic</I> of the Edwardian Age. Seems like today's ships are more like entertainment centers on water or something. But still...<BR/><BR/>Of course, I would hope it wouldn't sink while I'm on it. (Did you hear about the <I>Sea Diamond</I> that sank just a few days ago?)<BR/><BR/>I enjoy reading your blog, Daniel. I hope you have been having a blessed Easter!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
