Whats going to happen to the COSTA CONCORDIA?
My question is what is going to happen to the ship once everything has settled down and the search for the rest of the missing people has ended? I think the water is to shallow (the original problem) to sink it into a man-made reef and I dont see how they would flip it upright and tow it to a port for scrap or repair. At the same time isnt it to big to have just sitting in the water for who knows how long?
Does anyone know what they are planning to do with it and how they plan on doing that?

They are comparing The COSTA CONCORDIA with The Titanic- How big was the Costa iceberg?
Just because it is now 2012 and Tit was sunk in 1912 there is a rush to speak of dark co-incidence.
Truthfully there is really nothing to compare in those incidents.
