Miners in WV
I have this awful sinking feeling the four guys stuck underground are not making it out. There have been several attempts to try to rescue them, and the gasses have simply been too much. Venting the gasses has not worked due to the local weather. I have to say it always feels bad to hear of such things. The same mine has had problems, and I do not think laws and regulations about mining are adequatly enforced and I suspect there is some sort of corruption involved. At best, it is reckless endangerment.
