to be honest, when they first started talking about the pecking order of who comes up first and last, there was an understanding that the shift leader at the time when the miners were down there on august 5 would be the last to come up. i gather that is still going to be the case. there has been a bit of jockeying not just for the pecking order of coming up but for what happens to them once they are back on planet earth, on the surface. that jockeying has taken place amongst the families. the families are beginning to disagree with each other about just what happens to their celebrity interviews and all the money that will inevitably come down this mountain and engulf these minors. they themselves are in agreement about most of this stuff. they have decided, according to one report, that they will do everything together. they will write a book together. some of the families want it differently. that is hardly surprising. there is family politics involved as much as national politics. we are talking about 33 different families. you can expect quite a lot of that, i would have thought.
