OK....it's about the miners in Chile and not some crazy, f*cking hippies.....I still stand by what I said however in that the words are optimistic and in this case optimism will count for much.

i'm curious why this correlation was drawn?

The miners’ plight has drawn parallels with the story of 16 people who survived more than 72 days in the Andes mountains after a 1972 plane crash. Their story was later made into the Hollywood movie “Alive.”

has there been mention somewhere that these guys are eating some of those that didn't make it?

no it says all 33 survived... I think its just because the length of time and the amount of people... I hope.


17 days without food is a long time though, makes people do crazy things.

They're not expected to get the miners out until Christmas.

I wonder if they get overtime pay.
