Seems like every year on the anniversary of the E.F. disaster, the weather on the lakes is dark and stormy. At least in Chicago on Lake Michigan. (Although the E.F. went down on Superior, I believe.)

Stonecrusher and I were talking the other night about this ship. He found this and sent it to me. I thought the forum would be interested in it.
