What a story. I couldn't look away - our DVR was going to tape two shows at the same time and warned me it was going to change the channel - I cancelled a recording just to watch this. Reminds me (shows how old I am) of watching CNN for the Baby Jessica story (baby in the well).

Think that's a bit unfair, our politicians are just as nice and would be there hugging people in such a situation. One of the jobs of our government is to make sure things like this never happen in the first place, something the Chilean government has been blamed for over the past couple of months.
