As we've been reminded innumerable times over the past few weeks, one hundred years ago the "unsinkable" Titanic sank into the North Atlantic, taking with her more than 1,500 lives. The tragedy has made for some epic storytelling. Of all the stories, one of the most extraordinary is that of a 68-year-old Persian who wasn't, it turns out, actually on the ill-fated vessel, but was supposed to be. Go to this link for the story: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/rainn-wilson/abdul-baha_b_1419099.html

Interesting. Some of my family are Baha'i, and have photos of abdul-baha around the house. Another one to go on my thread for Titanic Narrow Escapes.
