You bet
No way
By Rick Couri
With the strains of Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On" in the background blueprints for the ship were seen for the first time Tuesday in New York.
Not only will the ship be nearly an identical replica of the original but it will also retrace the route the original White Star liner was supposed to complete when it hit an iceberg and sank in 1912.
The ships designer says the Titanic II will have the correct number of lifeboats and modern communication and navigation equipment but other than that will be identical.
So much so that passengers will be divided into three classes and won’t be allowed to intermingle.
The ship’s owner will be an Australian mining billionaire named Clive Palmer.
Palmer says passengers on the maiden crossing will be given early 20th century-style clothes and undergarments.
