wiegie Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 a rescue worker has reached the miners and soon the first of the miners will enter the capsule to come back to the surface godspeed, gentlemen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Dick Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Amen. A Kansas City company sent some drillers down there in the last week and they were able to cut off two months of the rescue. Apparently these guys are the best of the best. Getting a lot of press here, and rightly so. It's amazing those miners stuck together and didn't panic.

Double Agent Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Too bad this will continue for infinity. They keep sending one man down and only one comes up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puddy Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Too bad this will continue for infinity. They keep sending one man down and only one comes up. Not completely true but funny nonetheless. I hope each and every one come out alive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeR Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I think there are about a dozen out now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I think there are about a dozen out now Yep, 13 out, round trip for the capsule is about an hour. Pretty incredible story, seeing the first guy come up and hug his 7 year old that he hadn't seen in over 2 months was pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEC=UGA Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 14 out... COunter on the front page http://www.cnn.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
posty Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 The first one rescued was pretty cool, but do we need to see EACH one of them? The only ones that need to be shown now is the last one of the 33, the last person completely and the ones that have both a wife and mistress waiting for them...

i_am_the_swammi Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 The first one rescued was pretty cool, but do we need to see EACH one of them? Likely one of the most compelling stories of the last several decades....I want to see the reactions and emotions of every single soul involved.

Furd Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 How do you confuse a Chilean miner? Show him two shovels and ask him to take his pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmarc117 Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Those Chilean Miners have gone so commercial. I preferred it when they were still underground. The Chilean miners seem amazed at all the media interest - where have they been for the past two months? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackass Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 This story's got moon landing written all over it. I mean those miners looked fresh as daisies coming out. And what a boon this story has been for Chile and their president. Color me skeptical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
