[James R. Frysinger]

This time, I'll actually attach the file. (Sorry, I've been doing 10 
rounds with my ISP people and I must have gotten distracted.)

Attached is a gif image provided by CNN at
   http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/2001/sub.collision/session1.html
regarding the Greenville/Ehime Maru collision. The image is only a bit
over 10 kiB in size so most people should have no trouble displaying it
inside Netscape or the like. The image shows the relative sizes of the
two ships and gives their length over all (LOA) in meters and then in
feet.
