Now on the market: two floating forts off the coast of England.
The structures were built more than 150 years ago between Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight to defend against possible French invasion. Back then, they were known as the Palmerston Forts but because they never saw any action, they earned the nickname of Palmerston's Follies.
No Man's Fort and Spitbank Fort are both currently luxury hotels, featuring a nightclub, wine cave, spa and an entire pub.
Spitbank Fort
No Man’s Land Fort
Horse Sand Fort: was expected to be retrofitted but was delayed.
(Note: I think I have seen one of these forts in science fiction movie)"Sometimes you have to look to the past to understand where you are going in the future"

The graph doesn't make entirely clear whether the deaths are solely due to the sinking of the Titanic or is all inclusive, ie, the deaths of all who had sailed on the Titanic.
I believe it is of the latter but those of us who are more mentally invested in the scientificals would like more clarification. 🤔✅Sal Palooza -

I too believe it is the latter, but "Titanic Annual Deaths' seems to imply it shows how many Titanics died that year. Given that no units are specified, I think it means one big Titanic and one little Titanic. -

oh yea.
Wisteria vines next door will POP seeds over into our yard in the fall. About 70' or more. But the vines are 60' high or more.
I love their scent.

Since it's the Friday before of a long holiday weekend, a PSA to encourage all to remember that Memorial Day isn't "the official start of summer". It is something else entirely.
https://storage2.snappages.site/PQQ8RP/assets/files/Dr.-R-Baughman-How-They-Served-scans-23M-49.pdf
Remember the sacrifices of those who gave all so that we have the freedome to sit around today and post cat videos and argue about audio equipment! We owe them everything.
Memorial Day began in the second half of the Nineteenth Century as Decoration Day, when the graves of soldiers who died in the US Civil War were "decorated" with flowers and flags.
Fly your flag this weekend in honor and in memory.“The Lord will mediate between nations
and will settle international disputes.
They will hammer their swords into plowshares
and their spears into pruning hooks.
Nation will no longer fight against nation,
nor train for war anymore." - Isaiah 2:4 (New Living Translation)

Well said.

Thank you, Scott, for answering that rather pedestrian question
I think those 15kW of electrical power equate to about 20HP, so hold-on to your seat! "This may not matter to you, but it does to me for various reasons, many of them illogical or irrational, but the vinyl hobby is not really logical or rational..." - member on Vinyl Engine
