April 15th, 1912
Nearly 94 years to the day, the RMS TitAniC hit an iceberg and sank.
The passengers continued to wine, dine and dance; reassured by the crew who continued to believe the management line that she was unsinkable.
The rest is confined to Davy Jones' Locker as a legacy to ill-preparedness and blind faith.
Is it unreasonable to at least make sure there are sufficient serviceable lifeboats for those that wish to disembark...as suggested by a response to the previous post.

Prior to embarking on its proposed two year maiden voyage,the soon-to-be christened RMS TitAniC II will be soliciting prospective passengers with the promise that this will be a voyage to remember.
Deck chairs will be in plentiful supply and can be quickly rearranged should the unexpected occur. (However, lifeboats will only be sufficient for senior officers, and some crew.)
Upon completion of the voyage, the ship will return to home port and a sparkling new TAC will await the passengers. A banner will be spread across the art deco turrets reading "Mission Accomplished". Under this impressive slogan will be a statement -- "Asia's most expensive members' club, Club TACkai".
Bon Voyage
