Has anyone heard about the miners in Tasmania trapped a mile underground for the last 13 days. Rescuers are still trying to drill to make an escape tunnel. The rock is extremely hard & they must take it very carefully because the situation is pretty perilious for all concerned. Here is a link. Click on either of the links for the latest news.

These blokes deserve a Medal. They have great spirit & even joke about their situation.

Twinee----we have been keeping up with this news---
The good news is that they will be out soon----alive and well---
These miners derserve so much KUDOS for the work they have to do--in order to survive and provide for their familes---
It will be better news when they see Daylight and breathe the air!!!

Yes, I've Heard
Hi Liz:
I did hear from my friend in Brisbane about those miners. Hope they get them out soon. I heard they are able to get food and water in to them, so that's a good thing.
What an experience.

Hi all. They are certainly very strong men. They have stuck more problems with the rock that they have to drill through but heres hoping that nothing goes wrong now that they are so close to getting to them.

Hi Liz
I've been watching the news on TV and those poor men are still trapped. It's very complicated to get them out.
We'll just have to send our prayers, good vibes or whatever to them and their rescuers that it will all be over soon.
