I enjoyed reading about your first-hand experience, Jay. The engineering is fascinating and the kind of person who can go into a big hole in the ground for hours on end is interesting, to say the least.
The psycho-babble that some of the comments on here contained was interesting too. (That was the hated sarcasm making it's appearance.)
Maybe I'm in the minority because I like a nice break from the constant murder, rape, and destruction stories that have plagued the news.
I guess their situation wasn't life or death, but can you imagine being in a hole with no sun light for a couple months? No sex, no home cooking, no family contact. That would be the pits (pun intended). They had a shit time down there, now they're okay, and I'm happy.
"Now back to Falcon Lake, Texas, where our very own John Smith is standing by to interview the wife of the man killed by Mexican drug pirates..."
