It's been two weeks that these 6 men have been missing, buried in the mine. They were holding onto hope for a while, but it seems as though they are giving up.

They are now saying that they may never get them out. I really hope that they at least find their bodies for the families. To know where they are, probably intact, and not be able to bury them and hold a normal service is rough on closure.
Part of me wishes that they'd find them alive still, of course. I don't recall any positive stories like that recently...where someone goes missing or defies all the odds to end up living after being in a mine or buried after an earthquake or something in a long time.
With the other mine tragedy a couple years ago with only 1 survivor, the 181 Chinese minders the other day as well....time for some serious revamping of this industry. I hope they get paid well.
