I wish I could say it was true. Seems to be some communication foul-up: only one miner survived.

Here is a prime example of why people should not be willing to let news get out before its confirmed.
When I work at that part-time job that requires me to be in uniform and carry a badge, I make no statements, and leave no comments. Its the only safe way of not goofing at an improtant moment.

A few months ago there was a tragic accident on one of the attractions at Disneyland. In Los Angeles, there are basically five different English language prime time news teams (and three in Spanish). Channels 2 and 9 (CBS) were first on the scene. They said 65 people were injured. Next channel 4 (NBC) said the number was about 30. Channels 11 and 13 (Fox) said the number was 23. Channel 4 (NBC) and channel 5 (WB) said the number was 12. Channel 7 (ABC) only reported an accident happened but gave no numbers. Channel 7 is owned by Disney (as is ABC).
