this article was very redundant. It was a lot of different people saying the same thing over and over again.

I understand the need of info to make changes in the system, but if that is the only thing they need the info for, then they should just be patient and wait for the investigation to be over, especially if there is possible criminal activity involved.

The best thing for the commission to do right now other than wait patiently, would be to talk to other miners, and ask them if they see any working conditions that should be improved, that may be less than safe. If they are the onces experienceing the conditions first hand you would think they would know, and have a little imput to share about the safety conditions.

Granted I know nothing about mining, it just seem this would be a logical approach.

Did anyone think that maybe the commission is pressing so hard to get the info at the risk of jepordising the investigation is that maybe some of them are the ones whose actions are in question.

I'm certain that it should be mind probe, rather than mine probe. so if you change everything mine to mind, people will be able to understand your article a little better. Thanks

What do they need info for? They know nothing about mines, They are just the govs. puppets and making a joke out of the very bad ordeal. Let the REAL miners take care of it and keep the silver spoon governors boy out of it. And yes it could be worst but even as bad a job as msha did on the wilberg investagation the state of utah mine inspectors did NOTHING just let them cover it all up, Unless Huntsman wants to hire Miners to investegate he is just wasting state money and time.

No. Utah sees a major earthquake every 350 years. Last one? 350 years ago.
