[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is the same excess of wealth, hubris, and reliance on flawed, yet cutting edge technology that led to the sinking of the Titanic. The parallels give me chills. What an unnecessary nightmare. I hope for a good outcome. [b][b]Although well-intentioned, this kind of tourism should stop. The parallels drawn in other posts to Gettysburg, etc., aren't the same because those are far more accessible- no great wealth required.[/b][/quote] The bolded seems to suggest that "this kind of tourism should stop" simply because it requires great wealth to participate. Tourism should only be allowed if it is "accessible." Do I have that right? [/quote][/b] No. If you get lost on Little Round Top, you are probably not going to die, and it's not going to be a multi-country rescue effort costing tons of money. That's what I mean by "accessible". It's not always about you-sometimes your actions affect others![/quote]
