    The technology is there...for aot of industries! that's the real sad part! What you have to "unfortunatley " realize..is that for a company that owns xxx # of mines or other sustainable industry related companies is that...it's not fianacially pheasable to " make safe" all workplaces! They can deny this all they want but it'd true! It's comming! but it's slow! as I said before .people have to die before things change!

    I would think lives lost would be enough to pass on some of the financial burden to consumers to make things possible.

    True. Being in the media forefront helps a lot.
    I would hope for the risk you either enjoy your job or make a shit load of money.

    wouldnt say "shitload" but 1400 a day does ease the stress and yes..I love my job..we play with power like you've never seen before, which properly handled can be an amaxing thing to be beside!

    Unfortunately we all know that this is not true...and even sadder to say is that companies like ICG are well aware tragedies like this are bound to happen and $2mill and 11 lives are simply a cost of doing business

    Sad times when a BILLIONAIRE company owner chooses not to ante up some of own money for the families!!!!
    Like Hoolign said...incidents like these are quickly forgotten by those not directly affected.
