I feel horrible for these families. I feel though that if I was placed in this situation (god for bid) I would feel the same way, these families need closure. The families of the 6 trapped miners are not thinking straight and thinking that someone else could get hurt. They want there loved ones back, and can you blame them? I feel as if the mine company should not give up the search. They should continue the bore holes from the top of the mountain, placing each bore hole 50yards from the last. I feel as if that would really be a "complete" search of the mine. But I'm no expert, just an idea. The "6", their families and friends are in our thoughts and prayers.
