The first miner is on his way out...keep your fingers crossed that all of them make it out safely and quickly! He should be out in a few minutes...
It's great to see that they didn't have to wait until December as originally speculated!!

1 miner up, 32 more to go (plus one rescuer who went down earlier this evening...)

It's going to be a long night in Chile. Pray that all systems continue to work without any glitches!

That was awesome! My heart was beating so fast as we watched and waited. And of course, my wife started crying when he came to the surface. What a great day!

I just said that this morning Rudy, amazed at the efficiency with which they got to them and are getting them out - 2 months ahead of schedule

Tonight reminds me of when they rescued the 9 Quecreek miners in Pennsylvania about 8 years ago. I remember the chills I felt as I watched the live feed. Tonight, I was fine until I saw that little boy cry tears of joy! Once I saw that, I was a wreck!
