That is the worst thing that could happen.

Yes i know it is.

Although it wouldn't be completely surprising if it did.

No i am kinda expecting something to go wrong, after all they were meant to be trapped.

That's what I was saying. :/

Was you, well i hadn't noticed.

17 have made it out! Btw you two are being a bit harsh.

I'm just pointing out that it isn't over yet.

Ah but it's true though.

Whatever.

Sorry if i seem heartless, i just don't feel sympathy for them.

Same here.

Good i am not the only one then

I think most people don't feel much sympathy for them, in reality.

Yeah they kinda braught it upon themselves.

No need to be pessimistic, guys. The mine is stable and the remaining men are in high spirits and relatively good health.

I'm happy for them, and as a fellow human being I am very proud of them. They've demonstrated some of the greatest aspects of our species in the last 70 days.

And what's more... If a SPORE-poor country like Chile can keep ALL of its miners alive for several months, why the frak can't a "rich" country like America keep its miners alive for more than a day? I get the impression that haters are just jealous. I mean, Chile is pretty much showing up the entire world.


So, best of luck to the mole men.

20 are saved now!

I disagree somewhat. If Chile had been a developed country, the miners would have been rescued a long time ago.

Not neccesarily Thomas. It may have taken two months, but the only reason it was that "quick" was because they brought in a specialist machine from here in australia. Without it the miners would have been down there much much longer.

So in terms of the kind of position they were in, their rescue was relatively fast.

Its good to see that the miner's are finally coming out. I couldn't imagine what it would feel like to see the surface for the first time in two months.

Man the only one of the miners I feel truely sorry for, is the one who has to face both his wife and his mistress when he gets back up. He's probably considering staying down there

You know what Reyes i think after the ordeal he's been through, i think that man might be given a reprieve from both wife and mistress for a week or so... the hell will come

Reyes = Remi ...... Ben..... come on now its like the fifth time I've said it.

No I'm pretty sure while he's in hospital either his wife or mistress will try to smother him with a pillow

I'm just saying it to annoy you now Remi

I thought as much. I didn't think it was possible you could forget my name eight times. Even though I'm horrible with remembering names, it takes tops three times for me to remember it.

But this is straying away from the point. Back on topic

Miners trapped-Miners getting out- Everyone happy-except miner who's going to be smothered with a pillow

Good luck to him. He might get out in one piece.
