Miners
Very sad. They've decided to stop the searching, after some rescuers were killed and injured. It's entirely understandable and probably correct, ethically, but it's still very sad. If one of my family were in the mine, I'd be utterly miserable. Mining is fascinating and amazing, but so incredibly dangerous and scary. Remind me again: what's wrong with nuclear power?

Having lived my entire life fairly close to coal mining country in Tennesee and Kentucky, I've read of the dangers of coal mining and tragedies many times. The current hopelessness of the current situation in Utah is very sad. Miners' families dread the possibility constantly.

Europe, especially France, produces much electricity via nuclear power. It is clean and it is safe when used properly.
