Today, November 10, 1975, is the 40th anniversary of the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald in the Great Lakes of the U.S.-Canada. The report I read said that cause of the sinking of the ship and the deaths of all 29 crew members still remains a mystery. I confess that the only reason I knew about the significance of the date was because I had read an article about Gordon Lightfoot visiting a museum on November 9th that memorializes the great tragedy.

Actually, the 40th Anniversary of the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald was November 10, 2015. Sometimes, I wonder how many people read the forum.
