. . .
US Navy says "Fuck Off !" to requests to salvage
Titanic sub bits and pieces. Ain't remotely worth
the expense/danger.
Looks like the sub passengers - including the CEO -
become permanent fixtures ...LATEST victims of
the Titanic.
Besides, doubtful there's much more than a fingertip
or toe left intact. That water would have come in
like a giant steel ram.
The sub was of defective, and cheap-ass, design.
James Cameron, sort of an expert here, had
WARNED people to avoid it. Recent passengers had
complained of "cracking sounds". This was the
carbon/epoxy hull delaminating - extreme failure
was imminent. Hey, the carbon is strong, but
the epoxy holding it together is just PLASTIC.
Idiocy.
