Trish's story (http://friendfeed.com/trishro...) reminds me that I was a bit Titanic-obsessed as a kid. I read all the books I could find on the subject and had a plastic Titanic model that I assembled as accurately as I could. #saturdayFF
I also heard Ballard (the Titanic's discoverer) talk when I was young, though I don't remember if the subject was the Titanic or subsequent research. - John (bird whisperer)
The centenary also reminds me that my maternal grandmother would have been 100 this June. - John (bird whisperer)
My Titanic obsession was one aspect of growing up as a history nerd. :-) - John (bird whisperer)
Did you see the Titanic Smithsonian exhibit? We saw it when it was here several years ago. That was so interesting. - Trish R
No, I missed that one. I did see some other Titanic-related exhibitions, as well as the memorial at South Street Seaport in NYC. - John (bird whisperer)
