Well, I'm glad to hear these guys toughed out what was probably one of the toughest situations a person can face. And they did it while keeping their sanity and humanity. It's amazing to hear they are fighting to see who goes out last instead of clamoring to get out first.

sarge: "This is funny!"

I surely hope you don't mean in the 'entertaining sense' (don't make me ask you to watch Casino!). sarge, this is a story of how human nature can overcome obstacles; it is an amazing result, and there is nothing comical about it.

smith, once again you completely misunderstand. The news of the impending rescue of the miners is so good, everyone is feeling giddy, including the miners, who are now arguing over who gets to get out last!

Ha ha ha, it's great! OK?

Sarge, Smithinjapan don't argue.

Thank you Sarge for your comments, I guess it is funny that they are arguing about who comes last, but it is said today that there are going to descend two teams of rescuers, and they will come out last.

This story, which has touched the whole world, demonstrates that there are still things that we can be proud of, it really touches me, because I work for Codelco, and it makes me feel proud that we have such amazing underground mining engineers... although I work at an open pit mine, still I'm amazed...
