Thanks to Management for restoring this thread to the spot where late-comers can find it most easily.

I wonder how the families reacted, in their private moments, to a finish like this.

I'd do a bunch of tears-of-joy rejoicing, and shortly after my loved one emerged, I'd probably fall deep asleep in emotional exhaustion.

Thanks for the thread... When I heard the news that all had survived I broke down and cried myself...

Especially the family of the father and son-in-law down there. They had it x 2.

...I'd probably fall deep asleep in emotional exhaustion. i'm sure a lot of that will happen.

again P, big kudos for all your work on this one !
