Thailand - FOUND ALIVE - 12 Boys And Coach Still Trapped In Cave , 23 June 2018 #2

3am is wine time? Lol I suppose any time is a good time for wine.

I am so glad they've put the shield over the entrance and bringing in stronger security. The last thing these boys need is to be startled by a huge media frenzy as soon as they exit the cave. There will be a time for that later.

It is for us slow drinkers. Looks like tonight will be an all-nighter!

Damn, I feel like a college freshman now!

Edited to add: coffee time is right on wine-time's heels.

I guess my phone's video resolution isn't as crappy as I thought.

Do you see those round grey things? What are they?

Gods bless this wonderful technology we have these days!

Yes, I see them now and I did some googling about tank id'ing, but I'm not sure if we can see enough of them to tell. This is what I found, but I haven't read thru the whole thing yet

Under these circumstances I think anytime is wineo'clock

I'll drink to that!
Champagne for all once they are all out safely!

Amount of oxygen has reduced inside cave complex. Fresh air being pumped in. Officers who can be withdrawn from area are sent out. Number of people going in is now limited. At least 4 people always stay with children, coach: Narongsak

Oh yay 4 people always stay... (reading slowly, behind)

Zen, spellz, all you positive people, this is an emotional rollercoaster. Please help us with your calming energy. What we are feeling is nothing compared to these boys and their families of course but I/we need to keep a level head here, I can't be posting in fragments which balling and having heart attacks in the middle of it. Seriously.

No heart attacks allowed. You won't be able to watch the rescue from the ambulance and ER!

Thank you!

I wonder if the tanks we're seeing on live feed were not intended to be placed in the cave? I noticed them yesterday and they are longer than scuba tanks I've seen.

Although that one is rain*making* - we don't want that!
No no no! We need rain diverting, which I think is what cloud-seeding is. Unless cloud-seeding encompasses all weather modification?
Thank you for looking this up!

Michael Crighton did a piece on weather manipulation in an intro in one of his books...was it JP? I don't think soo...I remember it being fascinating. Talked bout how this technology has existed for a while, iirc. (Man, I can't seem to remember much today..)

 

[Hatfield]

Got to run an errand and will check back later.

Hang in there everyone. Prayers for a good rescue.

 

[Bravo]

Could those tanks have something to do with the oxygen they were piping into the cave????

This evening divers noticed a light shining into the cave about 400 to 500 meter from the entrance of the #Thamluangcave, shortening the distance remarkably. But it is not known if the climbers found the shaft.

I have a lovely bottle of Muscedres Pinio Grigio chilling

Does anyone recall what time this morning the senior military officer's wife leaked the info that the rescue had started?

Posted half an hour ago:

If the information that the wife of a very high ranking officer was right the rescue should be underway for almost 6 hours now. Ut takes a experienced diver to come out within 5 hours. (Roundtrip 11 hours). We will know in a few hours from now.

Yikes, if it's possible it could go wonky and drop more rain where we don't want it... then nevermind!
I thought it was a bit more precise.
OkeyDokey then...

(Man, that would be really messed up? Can you imagine?)

What? Does this mean they found another way out?

 

[Elainera]

Praying for the rescue if it is happening. I’ve followed this since the beginning and praying for a positive outcome. I’m thinking we may hear nothing until it’s over.

I think it will still be noticed by reporters if something happens - boys coming out. Also if the helicopter leaves.

 

[thordis]

What does this mean? Could they have found a shortcut after all this time?

Quoting from an article posted upstream, sorry if repost, thanks to poster.

In progress, have to split it up due to copyright

"Thirteen fully staffed medical teams stand ready round the clock outside a cave in Thailand -- each with its own helicopter and ambulance -- one for each of 12 boys and their coach trapped inside as a daring rescue gathers pace.
With oxygen levels dropping and rainstorms forecast, time is running out on a plan to teach the boys - some as young as 11 and not strong swimmers - to make a dive through narrow, waterlogged passageways that would challenge experienced cavers.
Medical staff involved in the mission told Reuters their first assessments will focus on the boy's breathing, signs of hypothermia and an airborne lung infection known as 'cave disease' which is caused by bat and bird droppings and can be fatal if it is untreated and spreads to other parts of the body."

Mammoth medical operation awaits trapped Thai cave boys
