@[Noiseisnotmusic99:46881]: Actually it does matter if the information is correct. It's a real event and it matters to families of those who died. For years, much of the blame had fallen on one crew member who was in charge of making sure the hatches were secured. His surviving mom had to live with that speculation for some 30 years following the incident. But with the History Channel's documentary the mom, now 85 years old, finally found the peace that her son was not guilty of any wrongdoing. Lightfoot in an interview shortly after the documentary felt that detail was also important to amend in his song as well for the same reason. That attention to detail is important in this case. |
