Message: [QUOTE="Matthew R. Boswell, post: 9873, member: 142943"] I would still be interested in the Titanic if it had survived. I would still be interested in the Empress. I would still be interested in the Doria. I am involved in a love affair with beautiful maidens and gentle giants, not with decrepit wrecks and rusty artifacts. It's not just the deceased who I'm sorry for, I'm sorry for the beautiful lady, her corpse sitting on the cold ocean floor being ripped apart by people coming and going. I would like to own a piece of a great liner-A brochure, a deck plan, a photograph, a model, a book, something taken off before the disaster. In a way, I'm glad some of the sensuous maidens of the sea did sink. They didn't have to be betrayed by their creators and scrapped-sold to a maniacal grim reaper to die in fear. The scrapped ships were murdered. The Andrea Doria was raped and abandoned to die in the darkness, as was the Empress. The Titanic was just an accident. [/QUOTE]
