It was a great demonstration of successful international cooperation, with American and Canadian expertise playing a promionent role. And of course I, with my claustrophobia, especially admire the guys who held up so well. Mind you, you wouldn't find me in a mine in the first place...

But it will be interesting how all this will affect their lives from now on. I suspect for most of them this will prove to have been truly 'life-changing', and not just for # 21...

They did a great job.  I loved watching the rescue.

What happened to the dude with both wife and mistress -- Adnohr
He was #21, and his wife didn't show up. Just the mistress, and his first glance wasn't exactly overwhelming joy, but he hugged her. I have a hunch that affair's over, but I've been wrong before.

It was something to watch, wasn't it? It brought people from all over the world together in their hope that things would turn out well, as they did. Wonder what happend to the dude who had to face both wife and mistress? Did he decide to stay down there, LOL?
