Titanic brushed against the iceberg that sealed her fate 100 years ago this evening. Can you imagine? The excitement of being on such a voyage and how it turned to terror.
I've read several of the diary publications of those who survived, along with media accounts from the time of the event. As you might guess, what is commonly regarded as fact is, almost without exception, Hollywood sensationalism. The United States Senate report from the hearings held in April of 1912 is also a great read.
100 years ago. What an amazing ride it's been for humanity since then. May all who died that night rest in eternal peace.
