While we have been inundated with political arrogance, waste, toxic spills and financial collapse an amazing story has continued in Chile. 2000+ feet down, where the miners are nearing rescue. What a story of a much maligned industry, the government, the navy and rescuers coming together to save these miners. Did the stars align? Phoenix Capsule story Can you imagine the emotional~mental spillover once atop? Update 10/13/10











Sounds like the girlfriend just cared a hell of a lot. She almost lost him. Cannot judge by what we hear, I give her credit for exposing herself like that. Wish I had a girlfriend that would love me that much…Just kidding Helen!
The successful rescue of the Chilean miners is a heroic achievement of human ingenuity, perseverance and solidarity. Not to be too much of a downer though, but I’m wondering why wasn’t the same impressive ingenuity was used to protect the miners safety in the first place?

So happy that they finally got out!
Yes, it is actually, a pretty remarkable story.
The fat ones will just have to stay down there till they skinny up a bit..
I do believe the last guy out will be the one with his wife and girlfriend waiting on top. Hmmm? Could be more hazardous than below or some new beginnings.
