I can’t help but to think that if this happened in America these kids would be out by now.

This rescue is a tragedy of errors. They were also saying that they would “wait out the weather” and possibly send them food and air while waiting “over a month” to pull them out.

this is ridiculous. But looking around Thailand this is all their people are capable of.

The Thai govt and military have been working this for almost two weeks now. Somehow this feels like an over exaggeration of minor goof on some reporters part, if not just fake news.

Ok, I really don’t get this. Give them half hour breathing bottles, put a stout line (rope) around their torsos so nobody can get lost, and just get them out. Or send a submersible nearby. Or drill a tunnel to them. Or another hundred solutions.

This is just stupid.

Pardon me for asking, but what are they doing with all the ‘human sewage’ that will necessarily be excreted? Are they just dumping it back into the surrounding waters? No, I don’t expect the pretty News Gals on CNN to ask those kinds of questions.

Almost every limestone cave system has another level below it until you reach bedrock or magma. Why don't they find the antechamber below, and blow a hole upstream between the two levels? It'll empty into that abyss for days probably weeks until the levels equal. The kids could walk out in a day.

It's not ideal but it's probably viable.
