When luxury cruise liner Costa Concordia struck a rock in the Tyrrhenian Sea off the shore of Italy's Tuscan Archipelago and collapsed on its side on January 13th, 2012, salvage engineers knew that they had a nightmare on their hands because a rescue operation of a ship this size, had never been done before. To make matters worse, the liner lay right in the midst of the Pelagos Sanctuary, an environmentally protected area of the Mediterranean, which meant that even a small misstep could turn into a disaster.

    Well, I have two things to say. TITANIC!!! and, my friend once said that you could blame almost anything on either the Titanic, or global warming. I believe that this time I will blame global warming, because it's the most possible outcome. It could be affecting the ship's control.
