Miners in Chile

In Chile at the San Jose Mine, thirty-three workers have been trapped since August 5. Rescuers have finished drilling the hole that should lead to their rescue. By midnight on Tuesday the capsule should reach the miners, 2,000 feet below. They will begin to bring them out one by one right away. These miners should be completely out of their make shift home of two months on Thrusday. The Chilean government has promised each miner six months of phsycological support. All of the worried and weather beaten families are excitedly awaiting the rescue of their loved ones. Over 750 reporters are standing by to speak with the miners as they rejoin the bright world above. Many book and movie deals are only being held-back by the unavaiable signatures of the miners. As of right now these miners have no idea what kind of fame and fortune await them when they return to the real world. When these miner breathe fresh air their lives will never be the same again.
