So, today is the 100th anniversary of the day the Titanic sank and I thought it would be appropriate for anyone to spare a moment to learn a bit about it.

Go here for a short video about it's first discovery at the bottom of the ocean:

We watched a video about it on the History Channel in class Friday. They should just leave it alone, final resting place. Seriously, you don't bother something like that. ^^

If we didn't bother it, we would have never have known what really caused it to sink. Just like you when you die would leave things behind for loved ones to look after and keep and to remember you by, we are all inherits of the Titanic.

And also, if we didn't bother it, it would be eventually forgotten by later generations like Pearl Harbor, which has begun to fade from memory already.

And if we did leave it alone, stories of what really
happened would have never been believed and the truth would have forever been lost. And that is a greater disrespect to the dead in my view.
