As in, underground. Not as in "Data Mining".
According to Fox News, "Mine Tragedy Could Hurt Recruiting Efforts". You think?
Perhaps the mining industry can fight back by sponsoring a remake of "How Green Was My Valley". (How many movies involving coal mines don't involve both a "coming of age" crisis, with either the father dismayed at the thought of the son joining him in the mine or dismayed at the thought that he might not, and a cave-in?)
Maybe they could re-run the Monty Python sketch where the coal mining son visits his university-professor father, with much tension because the son has turned his back on dad's honest profession and is all snooty about it.
