Cytat
Do celu tam się wysiada. Lec Stanisław Jerzy (pierw. de Tusch-Letz, 1909-1966)
A bogowie grają w kości i nie pytają wcale czy chcesz przyłączyć się do gry (. . . ) Bogowie kpią sobie z twojego poukładanego życia (. . . ) nie przejmują się zbytnio ani naszymi planami na przyszłość ani oczekiwaniami. Gdzieś we wszechświecie rzucają kości i przypadkiem wypada twoja kolej. I odtąd zwyciężyć lub przegrać - to tylko kwestia szczęścia. Borys Pasternak
Idąc po kurzych jajach nie podskakuj. Przysłowie szkockie
I Herkules nie poradzi przeciwko wielu.
Dialog półinteligentów równa się monologowi ćwierćinteligenta. Stanisław Jerzy Lec (pierw. de Tusch - Letz, 1909-1966)

.The InternationalIce Patrol, which was also established these days to warn ships of icebergsin the shipping lanes of the North Atlantic.As there were American people under the victims and the owner of Titanichas been an American company and the destination of Titanic had been NewYork, it was obvious for American senator William Alden Smith to make up atrial against the owners of Titanic.There has been a catalogue of 25,622open questions that filled 959 pages.On July 30th, the commission presentedtheir report : The cause of the collision of Titanic with an iceberg has beenthe too high velocity.There were no sufficient lookouts.The lifeboats werelowered correctly, but have not been filled up correctly.The Californian couldhave reached the Titanic if they had tried.The course had been safe ifenough care would have been taken.During the rescuepicture 27: SenatorSmiththe passengers of third class had been discriminatedagainst. J.Bruce Ismay and Sir Cosmo Duff-Gordon were released, beingacquitted of all guilt.The following trials were about regulating the financialdamage.The acquisitors wanted to get a sum of about 16,084,112 US-Dollars.White Star was willing to pay only 97,772.02 US-Dollars matchingthe worth of the 13 used lifeboats and pre-paid cargo.In 1916, 4 years afterthis tragedy, a deal had been made up by judge Mayer, that ended all trials.White Star had to pay 663,000 Dollars.Why is the Sinking of this Ship so Famous ?So many ships hit the ground due to a collision with an iceberg, or were sunkby a torpedo.But why did the Titanic become so famous ?Titanic has been the most modern ship of that period.Among the gueststhere were a lot of prominent people.So you can compare it with thefollowing scenery : Imagine a new plane is developed, more giant than thestate of the art Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet.It is to be the safest plane in the wholeworld.On its maiden flight, this plane is filled up with Hollywood stars andfamous sport stars.Then it suddenly crashes and most of the people die dueto insufficient safety devices.This would be a modern version of the TitanicFHund@t-online.de (Florian Hund)24disaster.Also most of the people could have been saved, if there had beenenough lifeboats.There are also many open questions and mystic theories :" Where had the binoculars of the lookout gone ? Equipped with binoculars,the iceberg would have been seen earlier and Titanic would have hadenough time to avoid the collision." If she had turned around just one second earlier, she would have passedthe iceberg." If she had turned around just one second later, she would have hit theiceberg with her front and could have stayed afloat." A cursed mummy should have been on board of the Titanic.In fact amummy as described in these stories is today in the British NationalMuseum in London.(It is property number 22542)." Were there really too many bad omens ?" The serial number 390904 read in a mirror seen no pope." A horoscope read danger, combined with the co-ordinates of Belfastand the date of birth of Titanic.The Fate of Titanic s sistersThe Unlucky Britannic / GiganticThe construction of the biggest of the three superliners had just begun, aswork had to be stopped until the report of the commission of Titanic has beendelivered.As work had to be continued, the plans had to be redone and thewhole ship had to be dated up.Even the name Gigantic has been changedinto Britannic.For instance the new vessel had a doubled hull, so it becametwo feet wider.The watertight compartments have been stretched up to the Bdeck.Also, huge lifeboat-Davits have been installed.Britannic had beenlaunched on February 26th 1914 and White Star announced that this vesselwas to be set on duty on the line Southampton New York.But thensuddenly World War I started.So the nearly finished interior was convertedinto a clinic.On December 12th, the ship with a whole new painting whiteand on the sides a green stripe and red crosses left Belfast for warservices.On November 21st 1916, Britannic was steaming in the AegeanSea, coming from Saloniki, heading for the Channel of Kéa.Suddenly, anFHund@t-online.de (Florian Hund)25enormous explosion shook the body of the ship, and within one hour, shesunk.30 out of the 1100 passengers were killed.Jaques Costeau exploredthe wreck of Britannic in the year 1976 and found a vessel that was nearlyundamaged.The Olympic the Reliable Old WomanOnly one of the three superliners, planned 1907 during the dinner at LordPirrie, met the expectations set to such a ship
