SAN JOSE MINE, Chile (AP) - As 33 Chilean miners begin their second month trapped 2,300 feet underground, there are tensions on
the surface between some of their loved ones.
One miner's wife and lover both were keeping vigil. When the two realized they were both praying for the same man, they had a very
public argument, and the wife tore down a poster with the miner's photo that the mistress had set up.
The mistress taped her poster back up, and beneath several poems and prayers she had dedicated to him, she added, as if defiantly: "Tu Senora," or "your wife."
Other relatives squabble over who should get the miners' paychecks during the weeks or months it may take to rescue them.
