Call me crazy... but I've tried to text message in underpass tunnels, and the only way THEY got thru is if the mud was a 5 feet or less.
Instead of hoping on outside help, they'd have been better served by helping themselves.

Sounds bogus to me. I have the same experience.
You can't use a phone inside a concrete building half the time.

That's probably due to the rebar rods in the concrete, not the thickness. Radio waves would go right through dirt if it doesn't have a high iron content.

You're blaming them for not trying to dig from the bottom of thirty feet of mud so liquid that it has flowed hundreds of feet? Ok, let's hear how they should do it.

The armies of two nations are starting to start trying to dig down to that school. Maybe you could offer them your expertise.

Mostly this is a self-ping to your comment, which I'm upgrading to stupidest post of 2006.
