With each hour that passes the likelihood of a successful outcome diminishes.

I'm very pleased that the outcome was a successful one and we're looking forward to having Josh back as soon as he is completely healed.

We believe the high number of violations is attributable to a significant increase in enforcement standards by the MSHA inspectors that examined this mine virtually every day.

We pounded on the drill steel and received no response. We'll do same.

While we're very disappointed by the information we have received thus far, we remain determined to continue the search so long as there is hope, and hope remains.

The families, much like the people working in the command center, are clinging to every hope.
