As a cyber family, Pixies has shared some of the very human world events as they unfolded. From the earliest few members when 911 changed the world in ways we couldn't imagine, through the 2003 Shuttle re-entry disaster, to the 2006 West Virginia mine disaster and other, we have shared those moments of such personal emotion about people we never knew with people we had never met here at Pixies.

I truthfully waited for a thread focused on the Chilean situation but I also left it go because I was NOT optimistic when they began talking about a November or December rescue. So many factors overrode the mining activities that were going to start, for any hope of success in my mind. Everything from the mere ability of the miners emotionally stress ability to the effect of geological activity that was active at the time and surely would effect efforts in a crazy four month period, left me feel the worst was yet to come.
I'm so happy that so many others did not share my perspective. As is being reported in overwhelming amounts today, the efforts of every field of expertise bolted to unprecedented action with multiple contingency on a yesterday timeline. The MANY critical secondary related facets from families to the project managing using global inputs of the best on an instantaneous basis sets new abilities of cooperation for mankind.
At this moment of four lost beings being retrieved successfully is really uplifting for me and I'll feel it more when the last one is above ground. It is seeing an event like this that breeds a little hope in me for a specie I so often see so proficient in the opposite.
