There have only gone 3 feet in 3 hours. Also, They had a seal broke, so they have to fix that before they can continue. The local newperson just said it may be after midnight. They said that once they brake throught it will be a hour before they can actually rescue them. Once they do start it will be about a hour to bring each one up

I am led to believe the rescue 'capsule' is large enough for more than one man.

And I forgot the time required to extract the bit. God help them.
