	Encyclopedia Titanica Message Board: Madeleine Astor
		Astor spent a good deal of her time in her room and was hardly off the one deck until the accident.
		Astor's room, particularly the cries of stewards awakening other passengers in surrounding staterooms alarmed her but she remained calm as she had the utmost faith in Col. Astor's knowledge of ships and the ways of the sea.
		Astor did not know at the time but she has come to believe that her husband must have known that the Titanic and all her passengers were in peril.

		I recently heard a rumor that the same well known Titanic society is now auctioning off cork from Madeleine Astor's life vest, along with threads from Titanic's carpet, to raise funds for its new museum.
		IN MY OPINION, however, tearing apart Madeleine Astor's life vest, no matter what condition it is in, is a far greater desecration of the Titanic than any salvage that has ever been done thus far.
		I believe that nothing taken from the Titanic site has ever been torn apart or damaged for the purpose of making money for whatever reason, whether it be a fundraiser or otherwise.
