I think the way we ALL jumped on the erronious "good news" shows that it was just frail human nature, & not maliciously intended to hurt those whose nerves were already frayed...

I saw a similar story(also no longer available), that a forman in the control center called a freind at the church, telling him what was happening and someone over heard just a part of the conversation. As I said that story is no where to be found now.

Mostly stayed out of this thread...just...ungh.

What really worries me is why the company was asking the miners to head into a crisis waiting to happen...and how many other mines in our country are like this one.
