re: #230 lawhawk

We’re at that point in the sinking of the R.M.S. Titanic where the stern is in the air, the lifeboats are all away, and that creaking, groaning sound you’re hearing is the ship about to break up. The only thing left to do is put on your lifejacket - and get ready for the shock of that cold, cold North Atlantic water.

If you survive that, make your way to the nearest lifeboat. As Captain Smith told the crew, “You’ve done all you can, boys, you’ve done your duty. Now it’s every man for himself; that’s just how it is at this time.”
