nationalpost.com	THIS SHIP SAILS AGAIN A couple years back during a trip to Belfast, I was urged to visit the shipyards where the Titanic was built. The offer didn't seem all that appealing, since everyone knows the story: big ship, unsinkable, hubris, irony, birth of a metaphor and all that. But I went to the area now called Titanic Quarter, saw the massive dry dock where the vessel was created, took the tour and by the end had to admit the visit was interesting and fun, and not just because of the "Built by the Irish, Sunk by the British" T-shirts. Almost 100 years after it went down in the North Atlantic, the story of the Titanic remains compelling. The challenge is to find enough new to say....	14th November 2011
