Chilean Miners

Hello

 

I just wanted to say what a great job the Chileans are doing and have done to rescue those 33 miners after all this time and also thanks to all those people who were and are involved. May all of those who have been rescued be healthy after that ordeal and their families also.

Success always occurs in private and failure in full view.

One thing that struck me last night when they were all safely out was that the same technology and people associated with the spill of oil into the Gulf of Mexico were used to save them.

Re: Chilean Miners

I thought this was a true miracle! I mean to think that 33 miners can survive so long with so little! It just goes to show their training and the power of the human spirit!! :smileyhappy:

 

Bless all of them and the many who worked tirelessly to rescue them!

New Zealand has it's own Little Chile mine problem, with gas involved.

Re: Chilean Miners

Yes, I think I heard something about that today. Hope everything will be ok with them too.
