I'm sorry, what is the significance of SOS? It doesn't mean Save Our Ship anymore?
Gah... Dan Brown... confusing everyone.
It's actual mean is "Save Our Souls"
In reality, it means Stop Our Stool. It was developed because of Montezuma's Revenge.
The letters S O S are easy to produce and remember in Morse Code, so it became common for SOS to be used in distress signals, I don't know if it has a specific meaning.
Read above. They have.
After posting that I did a little research on it, and it has no meaning. It was originally devised by Germans in 1905 and was adopted as international standard after that. The meanings were added afterwards and none are official.

I stand corrected
I thought the da vinci code sucked.
i wanna see garfield!
About the morse code stuff, I know all of that, I just found it strange that Brown took SOS completely out of context and confused people. Dumb twat.
> I wanna see garfield!
The new one? He goes to London and eats tons of food and harasses people. The end. The previous movie was probably the same way. :p
If you've ever read a Garfield short, you've read them all... and seen both movies, and seen every episode of the Saturday morning cartoon from the 80s.
what about that one with lasagna though that one was pretty funny rightQuote:
