Bought it. I kinda feel shamed even though I love having it at the same time.
I was talking to a Titanic historian/author who would travel with Titanic exhibits over the world. At the particular exhibit I was at, there was this massive, I mean MASSIVE chunk of the Titanic's broken hull, called "The Big Piece" suspended and on display. Anyway, this guy said that there would inevitably be little tiny pieces that would flake off and settle on the floor and when guards weren't looking, he would go and sweep up these little bits. So he has pieces of the Titanic's hull in a little jar. See, I find that creepy and that's why I feel guilty about havin a chunk of coal. And yet, I love having a piece of the history. Total quagmire. Giggedy giggedy.
