Me too. I actually had to work a 40-hour week this week for once, and also don't have TV, so anything I've heard about this has been a brief snippet while in my car on the way to work, or once I got home. There's no computer or radio at work (well, there is, but we aren't allowed to use said computer, and only one of my other staffers wants to listen to public radio with me). Suffice it to say--my feelings are definitely not the same as other people here.
Sure, it's amazing that they were able to survive and be rescued, but seriously--would we even know about this story if it weren't for the modern media?
