I think maybe this is the thing that shocks me the most about that mining accident...
In an interview with USA Today, Hatfield said if the trapped miners had wireless communication devices, it would have been possible to tell them of a safe way out. The only method of communication at Sago, a wired phone, was destroyed in the blast. He said his company would consider issuing radios to miners.
Can you say, "Cheap bastards?"
