"Clive Palmer, one of Australia's richest men, has commissioned a Chinese state-owned company to build a 21st Century version of the Titanic.

The mining billionaire told Australian media that construction would start at the end of next year.

It would be ready to set sail in 2016.

The plan, he added, was for the vessel to be as similar as possible to the original Titanic in design and specifications, but with modern technology."

Who wants to go on that first fatal voyage? Anyone?

"It is going to be designed so it won't sink,'' he added. ''But, of course, if you are superstitious like you are, you never know what could happen.''

Hmmm... i wanted him to say it was "unsinkable" then, prehaps, i would be a little excited.

Wow.. a boat designed not to sink. That's a technological leap forward in seacraft.

On its maiden voyage it should be forced to run the same route and leave on the same day of the year.

I want to know what modern tech they will be using, lasers to melt the icebergs before they do any damage?

At least change the name (Titanic II). You don't make a sequel when the original was a bust.

I always thought James Cameron would be the one to do this. After all, he acts like he owns Titanic 1.
