    The thought of being in the capsule makes me want to yarf.

  • yes; the idea that its supposed to take 15 minutes to get to the surface is just mind-boggling to me. I cannot imagine what's going on in their minds.  I am just praying for a really strong cable--that rescue contraption looks like a 7th grade science project--it's amazing!
  • The family that was just brought over is bringing me to tears.

    It sure was! Although now I feel bad for them on a whole different level. They can't even just go home to be with their family and the media is going to bug them forever!

    I know they need to be medically evaluated but I think I would just want to be left alone (with my family of course).

    Pretty sure I read somewhere there was actually a pipe of sorts that they basically were able to use as a toilet.  But also, they were like running laps down there (they sent smokers 1/2 mile down a tunnel to let them have a smoke about halfway through the ordeal), so it's not like they slept on top of each other I don't think.  But, of course they probably didn't have much in the way of a shower :)  Although, they look fairly shaven as they come up, so they obviously were provided toiletries and maybe could wipe off?  I'm sure a shower is first thing on the list!
