I'm sort of past being angry now. It's just comedy gold now.

I don't have words, in english nor in swedish, to express how much spot on this is.
Also, Icarus1 is so correct one can possibly be.

Amazing, just amazing, what crap they get away with. Doesn't really help the genre - like the defenders of the universe express - but on the contrary.

Yeah, hard to believe that one!

There really are some 1st class plonkers on the Banana forum these days. I try to stay away except for update news as the fanboiism prevalent on there often brings up a little bile, very unpleasant!

I'll give them their due though, they have the belief and tenacity of a Jehovas witness wink smile

There's quite a few differing opinions on what the band actually played during that last hour.

I'm leaning towards dub-step but I could be wrong.

Anyhoo, here's a great picture I stumbled upon during the 100th anniversary hoopla....

I hate going O/T but that is a great photo- pin sharp and great scale, especially if you consider that it is probably late 1911, early 1912.I started collecting books about the disaster in the 80's and have a fairly respectable collection now. Although I have seen the pic before it is not often seen and I think I first saw it in the (very good) Eaton & Haas book 'Titanic'. That rudder was one of the (many) reasons the ship was lost- too damn small for a 52,000 ton ship....

The reference to the game was tongue in cheek 'she's going down boys' nonsense. I do not know how this game is being financed (or why for that matter) but one thing seems to be the case, they have the pennies to keep having a lash at it and who's to say- its a bit like the monkeys on the typewriters- one day....?
