I was watching the news a lot on TV, and was just kind of struck by how, it seemed like every hour, something worse was happening,

That is incredible news. Again, if this turns out to be true... we have not been able to independently confirm this... but the family members have been told... that the 12 miners are alive.

It's great news, but we shouldn't take comfort in it. It can take up to five years (to go through the ESA listing process). I don't think we have five years.

It's almost a good news-bad news situation. The good news is more people are joining the workforce.

When we heard the news yesterday, everyone was just devastated. He made a huge impact at Pearl River in a short time — 5 1/2 years.

This is a major step. We consider this to be the best news for the industry in a long, long time.
