Shipwreck Blog: SS Gairsoppa

A WWII UK cargo ship torpedoed by a German submarine, carrying silver worth £150m.

That silver wouldn't have been worth anything near that much 10 years ago, or even 5 years ago.




I don't know why, but for some strange reason this story makes me think of the fact that Patrick Leahy is Eric Holder's Punkass Flunky Boy.

@wally: It failed as a meme almost immediately. I'm keeping it alive just to play with Google search results.
