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.

Thank you Lord for hearing our prayers. We deserve so much less than you bless us with. May your name be praised among all the rescuers, the miners, theirs families and those who have been riveted to this tragedy. We praise you and honor you…not because you answer as we desire, but simply because you are Lord and have chosen to create us as the object of your affection. SDG

A good comparison, at least for me, would be when, at the critical moment, on the steps of the SCOTUS, Rita Cosby gave the wrong verdict....then quickly, and somewhat sadly, corrected herself.

But.....you're right. Fox got better as the evening went on.

Old Tennessee Ernie Ford song:

"Well I pray when I'm dead and the ages shall roll,
My body will blacken and turn into coal.
Then I'll gaze from the door of my heavenly home,
And pity the miner a-diggin' my bones.

Where it's dark as a dungeon, damp as the dew.
Dangers are many and pleasures but few.
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines,
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines."

Thanks be to God that all are out safe.

Actually to be fair to Rita Cosby .. what the USSC said was that eGore could recount the whole state .. but that he waited to long and ran out of time

But I will say .. when Rita said that .. my heart sank

I going to bed now and hug the wifey. (she will punch me and say "leave me alone" but tonight just makes me glad to be alive !)... God bless them rescue men and women too. They were there for days on end. The churches I am sure were full of people saying special prayers for them.
