To this illustrious list we can now add The Queen of The North. Who knows what future History books (if they even mention it), will reveal as to why she crashed into an island, that was almost imppossible to crash into, if the crew had been half competent. Will they say, drunken Captain (as was The Captain of the Valdez), fornicating crewmembers or outright incompetence? Not since the sinking of The Titanic on her maiden voyage, has The World been more captivated by a story of such magnitude. T.V. Mini series to follow.
