Hello,
I wanted to ask everyone on here a question about Robin Gardiner as there seem to be many experts on the boards. I am keen to know how he is considered amongst his contemporary titanic experts/historians. Whilst his theory is certainly intriguing it looks as though most of his contemporaries simply dismiss him, is this the case?
In addition to this are there any university courses which involved the RMS Titanic and if so would they consider using Gardiner in the process of the course?
I think what I would like to know is whether anyone entertains his theory and thinks he may have something? Or whether he simply dismissed out of hand and if so why is this. For instance there just seems to be a sort of 'isn't this absurd!' response rather than an response with evidence against his case.
I would love to get an idea of why he seems to be shunned.
Many thanks
