One problem with the title "Death of a Legend": the only reason the ship became a legend was because she died. Hardly anybody cares about the sister who was torpedoed later, and nobody at all cares about the one that survived.

But wasn't Britannic mined, not torpedoed?... Those big boats do have a penchant for running into things.

As for Olympic...hey, if you listen to some crackpot theories, then it was she who sunk in 1912, while Titanic was secretly renamed and was disguised as her. Something involving a conspiracy, an insurance scam, and probably time-traveling government agents chasing aliens.

I think Steve and I would need to be into our third or fourth keg of beer before those theories would get an airing.
