Good to see a happy ending in this story, especially after all Chile has been through in the past year.

Arriba Chile con la ayuda de Dios.

Did you guys here about the miner that wants to stay down there as long as he can? Apparently his wife, and his mistress, met each other during the ordeal, and are now both waiting for him topside. :oops:

The 23rd minor to pop out of that hole came about around 2pm PST, I think.

It's a remarkable story and one of the most widely watched news stories on the planet.

No finger-pointing..just get the job done with the rescue! Plenty of time to finger-point afterward.

Absolutely! Well done. Bravo. It wouldn't be boring or mundane if your father was down there. I agree a counter is kind of funny though.

With all the violence,political unrest and mayhem on the planet it's great to see a good news story take over the airwaves.God Bless all those who worked on bringing them to safety.28 rescued from the last report I heard. I imagine neither one of them will ever have to work again if they play there cards right and hire lawyers who specialize in show business and/or publishing. With regard to the miner with 2 women on the go-although he was looked upon as the medical officer and nicknamed Dr. by the others,the court of public opinion in Chile is hoping that he stays in the mine.

This is some good voodoo, Chile. Finishing with the slight return.

See what I did there...?
