Heartbreaking news overnight about three rescuers who lost their lives as they tried to reach 6 miners missing for 11 days.

While the mine's owner says they've done all they can to assure safety, records are showing otherwise. No one in the area wants to speak on-camera b/c of fear of reprisals.

It seems that we keep having these collapses. Just seeing pictures from inside the mines makes me claustrophobic!

While we say we want to be less dependent on foreign energy sources, are we really willing to do what it takes to make working conditions safer?
