i admit i know nothing about mining in any way, but it seems to me that all this time being used up to drill a multitude of smaller dimensional holes may be of some help but why dont they start a new main entrance say perhaps 100,300,500 or so yards away from the first one that keeps having cave-ins..i do understand earth booms and even sever earth quakes since i am from california ..perhaps we could have the two main entrances meet somewhere in the general location of where our falling miners could be???

I am sure that all of you are like me, praying hard that these men are found. I am totally waiting for the news update on the 5th hole. Please God...send these men to the microphone and let's get them out.

I ANXIOUSLY AWAIT UP-DATED NEWS. I IMAGINE MYSELF IN THIS SITUATION , HEARING DRILLS AND KNOWING THAT HELP IS COMING. MIRACLES CAN HAPPEN. WE MUST KEEP
SEARCHING UNTIL WE FIND THEM.

I realize sending the microphone down is an important step but wouldn't it have made more sense to send the camera down so they could look around, too.

I too am waiting to hear what the results are of the 5th hole, but if there is nothing there it may mean they moved farther than originally anticipated. I believe they will be found. May God keep everyone;s faith strong until then.
