...Interesting that I should find this topic here, because, on April 15th, at 2:20 AM, I held a one minute vigil, at the time the ship was said to make the final plunge beneath the waves. I, too, thought of little but Titanic for some years, in my younger days, and have heard much info regarding it. ...Yes, I may be on Pacific Standard Time, but still, it was 2:20 AM, and I held that minute of silent vigil to remember the dead. Thanks for making the topic.
Edit: I suppose I should re-read A Night to Remember, as I have the book. ...I still remember when studying the ship was a new thing for me, and when I first borrowed the book from my middle-school library, over winter break. I had to stay up because one of my cousins snored most of the night, but I believe there was a night light on (this was at my other aunt's house), so I read a good portion of it that night. ...It was easier to focus on the details, back then. Was roughly about 1998. ...It feels like an eternity ago...
