Watch and pray. The rescuers are optimistic that they will reach the cavity where the miners are located by midnight, perhaps as soon as 10pm et.
They just reported that several PA miners were caught in a similar situation thirty years ago AND WERE RESCUED ALIVE AFTER A WEEK IN THE HOLE.

I think he must have an hour show on Sat nite. All things about physcial condition, they will talk to families first. Mine owner really shook up. Good to see this compassion in people. He said the coal miner is the toughest men up here.

Stupid reporter's question -- "What was the most disappointing time? The drill bit breaking?"
To: justshe
They will have the 2nd shaft completed soon, so if the first shaft should become unuseable, the 2nd shaft can be brought online.
To: pgkdan
yes, we all need to give Thanks to THe Lord.
THANK YOU LORD
To: Dasaji
Oh, yes! So many things can still go wrong. Thankfully, the Lord has brought them through the worst of it!
To: Dasaji
If He can keep an entire sea apart with a blast of His nostrils, a Pennsylvania borehole should be no problem for Him ;)
