What sort of BLOOMING IDIOT (just my opinion) would place the retired Russian sub "Scorpion" beside the QM? Think of the ironies & contrasts:
(1)PURPOSE: QM was designed to PROMOTE(& in WW2) DEFEND peace; "Scorpion" was made in Cold War for OFFENSIVE purpose of firing should real war actually break out;
(2)OWNERSHIP: QM was England's, always a 20th century ally for peace; "Scorpion" was Russia's, described by former Pres. Ronald Reagan as "The Evil Empire";
(3)INTEREST: which will be more popular with the public: a huge & famous former luxury liner, or a small, unknown submarine?
I had a model of the Queen Mary, but have never seen one of the Scorpion. That say anything?
