At any rate he says the two portions now lie about 600 meters apart, and that the portion more or less from just in front of the 3rd stack to just behind the 4th stack is gone. He says the bow has plowed 50 feet into the mud. He says the iceberg did not gash the hull, but rather popped the rivets on her plates. The pictures *are* quite amazing. When's the video cassette coming out, I wonder?
