Korean ferry sinks, 304 Dead, mostly high school students

[Ed Anger]

The General McClellan refused to leave shore without 20 more ferries.

And thought there were 100000 rocks between it and its destination.

The General Lee sank with a far greater loss of life than the General Grant, but Southerners still think that the Lee was a better ship.

I once took a ferry between Argentina and Uruguay in 2nd class. We were below deck and couldn't leave. It was packed--the seating was like airplane seating, only the seats were like 20 or something between the aisles. The place was filled with screaming babies. As far as I know, I was the only non Spanish speaker.

I think there was only one rather small door in and out. I'm not sure because the safety instructions were only in Spanish. Anyway, it occurred to me that if the boat sank, even slowly, a bunch of us probably wouldn't get out. A part of me welcomed the chance to drown rather than continue the trip (I sprung for 1st class on the way back).

Just 75 of the 325 students who were on board were among the rescued, authorities said.

So sad.

Lets keep it real for a minute. This is east asia. Most of those kids have probably already finished. Hell, probably some of the kids trapped in air pockets are trying to find some dry paper so they can get an early start on theirs.
