CONGRATULATIONS to all involved in the rescue operation.

Thanks zakirc for bringing out this greatly positive aspect of this sad incident. I totally agree with you, our firefighters and law enforcement pulled off a miracle. After watching the news coverage of the fire, the crowd clogging the streets and the sad looking fire engines, I wouldn't have been surprised if the casualty was above a hundred.
Great job firefighters!
When things quiet down a bit, I hope the govt will recognize them formally for this.
