Patagualino:
Are we supposed to be surprised?
To the general public this is a coming together of two cars in a parking lot.
It is not. It is indicative of all that is wrong with this "cruise" industry.
The "general public" needs to be aware: They are going to mess up...BIG style.
Titanic will seem like an accident on a summers day on a boating lake.
Wake up: These people are going to kill thousands.
Top-heavy ships.... poor crew training...multilingual problems....
Now the greedy b@stards want to dredge channels to allow these monsters into even more shallow waters.
Enough. They have almost destroyed Venice...now they want to do the same to the Caribbean.
Vote with your feet...and wallets... DEEP WATER CRUISES ONLY!

libertyshiplad:
Is either ship moored or anchored?
Would a pilot have been on board?

ChasB46:
Carnival Legend moored. Carnival Glory approaching her berth.
Whether or not pilot on board, captain's error.
