Instantaneously...Wrong

Held on to this because something smelled fishy. Reports were jumbled and I went to sleep agonizing over whether or not to publish. Correct, or in error, we can be instantaneous but I was too sleepy to make a rational decision.

It is a miracle!
Twelve miners caught in an explosion in a coal mine were found alive Tuesday night, more than 41 hours after the blast, family members said.
Bells at a church where relatives had been gathering rang out as family members ran out screaming in jubilation.
Relatives were yelling "They're alive!"

Got the Fox News Alert, then the above from STOP, and 10 minutes later yet another email from someone relatively close to the scene telling me that it was all a mistake and it looked like one of the miners was going to make it but that the other 11 were gone.

Messenger shares in the grief and sorrow of these families, and it's a tragedy the earlier news wasn't accurate.
