Wow, that's amazing. I never really held out any hope for them, felt that they would be used in negotiations at the bitter end.

A testimony to the power of prayer. The truth is even starting to beat out Clancy.

Initial reports had said they were missing from their quarters (cells?) and the Taliban had taken them along during their retreat from Kabul.

Very curious and uncharacteristic. I'd like to hear a better explanation than "power of prayer". Something unreported may be going on behind the scenes.

CBS is also reporting that Taiban want to talk about turning over bin Laden. This is off the radio at bottom of the hour. But I did not see it posted.

They said: please stop the bombing!

I guess that strategic retreat trick e-mail didn't reach all parties. LOL

Again the media had the story wrong. It was reported the captives were transported to Kandahar.
