So now for a subject near and dear to my heart.

Premier Exhibitions [http://www.premierexhibitions.com/corporate/all/rms-titanic-inc], known for their subsidiary RMS Titanic Inc. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premier_Exhibitions#RMS_Titanic_Inc._2], is looking to get rid of a 9 million pound debt. They're declaring bankruptcy [http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/07/03/fears-titanic-wreck-could-pillaged-salvage-company-falls-bankruptcy/] which puts the near 6,000-strong artifact collection and even the wreck itself potentially up for auction. Apparently, James Cameron, Professor Robert Ballard and Titanic Belfast are talking about the matter and how to proceed.

My thoughts?

Fuck.

We already lost Wallace Hartley's violin [https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=wallace+hartley%27s+violin&oq=wallace+hartley%27s+violin&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l5.5479j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8] to private collectors. Must we lose so much more?

JC needs to forget this crap and get back to planning and filming his Avatar sequels. And leave the wreck alone! People have already landed on it with their deepsea drones so many times that any value it had, sentimental or otherwise, is completely lost.
