For over two months, they lived in a tomb, among rocks and rosaries. They prayed in darkness, waiting for light they could only remember, fleetingly, from last summer. And yet, they dared to believe. They sent a flag to the pope, and letters to loved ones, and petitions, endless prayerful petitions, heavenward. People called it "Operation San Lorenzo," for the patron saint of miners -- a saint who knew something about buried treasure and prayer.

It's a good thing they don't have the ACLU in Chile - they might have gotten an injunction to stop the rescue.

You're right, GreenHornet: Thank God there's not an ACLU in Chile.
