I was shocked and deeply saddened to here this. I was, as everyone, extremely happy to hear that the coal minors survived, and that it was a miracle.

This really is one of the worst miscommunications in history; however it is no ones purposeful fault. The poor families of the coal minors, all I can do is pray that they are able to forgive those who made the mistake, and eventually hopefully find peace with what happened. I think the whole world feels for their loss.

TALLMANSVILLE, W.Va. - The West Virginia coal mine where an underground explosion left 12 miners dead and another with serious injuries had been cited for hundreds of federal safety violations since it opened in 1999, government records show. Among the infractions were at least 16 related to failures to prevent or adequately monitor the buildup of explosive gases in the mine.

Yea i saw in a local newspaper that they were all alive and my whole family was amazed... but then later that night on the news it said only one of them survived. How could they make such a stupid mistake like that?

Though its a bad mistake but you really can't blame them. There was just a miscommunication and they are still humans.

My regards to the families
