Dear Babblers,
I'm sorry for incorrectly reporting the news about the miners. The Internet Service Provider that I've been threatening to drop reported that 12 of the 13 miners were alive. Now, I hear that CNN is reporting that only one miner is alive.
I should know better than to trust my ISP (or any network news stations, for that matter).
Although I still don't know for sure, it appears as if most of the miners died. I must say that, based on the news reports from early on Tuesday, it seemed unlikely that anyone could have survived either the explosion or the high levels of toxic gases.
