'Hover'? That's what a helicopter does. I believe you may have been attempting to spell 'Hoover'?

It's okay, I understand. Those two syllable words really throw ya, don't they?

I am watching them send the escape capsule down to those miners in Chile on http://news.yahoo.com/video/us-15749625/22309266

The first try they had to pull it back out and do some modifications with a hammer and remove some wheels off it that were intended to keep it centered in the hole.

This thing still might not work.......I sure hope it does for the Miners and their Families. It would be awful to get this close and still end up losing them.

Leggs? Somebody say LEGGS?

Did they get the miners out? My mom said she was watching it but did not say.

They are pulling the miners out now, and from what I have seen on live feed so far, it is going well. This is a story worth mentioning, as it is very rare for something that went wrong underground, to turn out this way.

And, when it is all said and done, there will be a crew of 33 guys who, when put together, will be unstopppable in any situation.
