As of yesterday I had heard that a salvage crew had succeeded in hooking
onto a 13 ton section of the Titanic and are slowly bringing it to the
surface. I'm not sure what's happening with it today, though. The ship is a
long way down there, so I can't imagine that bringing up even a "small" 13 ton
section is going to be a very quick job.
