[trivia] "Superior, it's said, never gives up her dead." This refers to the fact that something in the chemical makeup of the water in Lake Superior keeps corpses from floating to the surface. [/trivia]
Correction: It's more the extremely cold temperature of the very deep water than the chemicals. Last edited by Maine-iac; 11-10-2005 at 10:21 AM.. |

I remember hearing this song, and thought it was relating to something back in the 1800's. It was only about 10 years ago I realized I was alive and an adult when this happened. As noted above, pre-24 hour cable news, stuff like this wasn't that big.

this'd be a good day to watch "Perfect Storm" again -- that & 'Edmund Fitzgerald' are good reminders of our mortality

The "Perfect Storm" was in 1991, IIRC.
