John and Doves,

 

TV news said rescuers had entered Pike River Coal Mine today for the first time since the explosion killed 29

miners there on 19th Nov, 2010.

 

19+11+2+1 = 33

 

From 19/11/2010 to 28/6/2011 is 221 days or 17 x 13 days.

 

This article says the Royal Commission into the tragedy is due to start on 11th July 2011 (11711).

From 19/11/2010 to 11/7/2011 is 234 days. 234 = 18 x 13 (6+6+6 x 13).

 

Yes, the Royal Commission starts 13 days after the entering of the mine.

 

234 days is 33 weeks and 3 days forming a 333!

 

1+1+7+2+1+1 = 13.

 

Remember also that the Remembrance Service in Greymouth was on the 13th day, 2/12/2010.

 

Is this possibly coincidence?

 

Keep looking up,

 

Phil.
