    sorry to hear about the 13th miner but glad to hear that 12 survived.
    Why is it that all these jerkoffs seem to know about the right to remain silent, but I have yet to find one of them to actually exercise that right. -Legoate

    That is great news that 12 survived. The last I heard was none were expected to be found alive.

    That's what I heard too. I watched a lot of the coverage very early this morning and even then they had lost a lot of hope. I was stunned! Great news.

    That's wonderful! I didn't think they would make it.
    Apparently, I'm supposed to be more angry about what Mitt Romney does with his money than what Barack & Michelle Obama do with mine

    I'll admit that I wrote them off. All I heard earlier was that air tests showed deadly levels of CO. Very happy to see 12 emerge alive, but it is incredibly sad for one to have passed away. They just interviewed his niece on the radio...I can't believe how well she is handling the news.

    MSNBC is now reporting that 11 of the miners have been found dead. It appears that the earlier reporting was incorrect. All the family members believed that the original report of survival was correct..this is very heartbreaking. :(

    Breaking News on Fox News... 0300 hrs

    Tragic news folks, as reported in an earlier post 12 miners found alive 1 passed away. It's now 0300 hrs and FOX News is now reporting the exact opposite. 12 miners dead. 1 in Criticial Condition. Family Members said, "They were lied to"... President of Mine Co, says Cell Phone Mis-comunication was cause for Mis-Information..... My sympathies to the families....

    How do they make a mistake such as that??:confused: Damn, think of the poor families, being told there were 12 survivors just to be told later that is in fact wrong.:mad:

    How could something like this happen though? So many sources stated the opposite, didn't someone come forward with the correct information? You'd think that someone with knowledge of the situation would have seen the headlines and tried to get the truth out...
    When you wish upon a falling star, your dreams can come true. Unless it's really a meteor hurtling to the Earth which will destroy all life. Then you're pretty much hosed no matter what you wish for. Unless it's death by meteorite.
