Arrow Russian Sub - "Kursk"

I know I shouldn't be posting this here, as it's a non-aviation topic, but please spare a thought for the 100+ crew of the "Kursk" who are stranded 102 metres below the sea and are unlikely to be rescued.

The commander of the Russian Navy has said the chances of them being sucessfully rescued are "highly unlikely" I understand they could have less then 48 hours air supply left even though a rescue sub is feeding them air.

So while we bitch and moan about everything, remember, there are always people worse off then you.

God help them.
