Sparky was born in South Dakota. We are always proud of the few celebrities we have from the state as our entire population is only 800,000

All the more poignant because of the success of the Chilean operation. Hard to believe that in the 21st century, workers' safety should still be an issue.

We have remote control fucking warplanes, why not robot miners? Why? 'Cause life is fucking cheap. Cheaper than fucking coal, apparently.

When I was a kid in Nova Scotia, we learned the lyrics to Peggy Seeger's "Springhill Mine Disaster"

'....When the earth is restless, miners die
Bone and blood is the price of coal....'

My ancestors are coal miners from Durham, UK, and there are several memorials up there with their names engraved on them...
