Pytanie #1:

"AESTHETIC APPEAL": "QM-2" vs. "TITANIC" - what say you?

I've just been watching "Personal Effects" on Netflix - a very good film in IMHO.

And occasionally glancing over at the Tube, the channel selected was our local PBS station. The program on was a documentary about the QM2(the ocean-liner "Queen Mary-2").

What little of it I caught struck me as fantastic. There were some celebrities on, ranting and raving about the aesthetics of this newest marvel of seas: how stunningly beautiful/so aesthetically appealing/what symmetry.

I was really taken aback; because what I see is----------anything but beautiful/aesthetically appealing:

Maybe I'm stuck back somewhere in the tastes of the beginning of the 20th century: say, the pre-Great Depression era. But for me, the most beautiful ocean-liners ever built were the Titanic and her sister ships, the Olympic and Britannic (sorry I couldn't find a better model photo - tired of searching(time for "beddy bye"):

Pytanie #2:

Anyone into sunken ships?

I am a sunken ship enthusiast. Obviously, Titanic is my favorite... but I know every single thing about that (I've studied sunken ocean liners since age 6, and am in my 20s now).

Lusitania is of interest to me. But the wreck is almost completely gone.

Anyone into the same subject of underwear archaeology? If you study sunken cruise ships, what is your favorite case?

Please no photos.. I love studying them, but the photos of them can be a big disturbing at times! :)
