Dear List,
I thought as a group we may take a moment to remember the 166 children and
28 adults who lost their lives in the Aberfan Colliery disaster 50years ago
today.

As a mining engineering student in Cardiff during the 1980s this case was
highlighted to me as an engineering case study. The true learning,
however, comes from the extraordinary sadness of personal loss, the callous
corporate and governmental disinterest shown the victim's families and the
lasting legacy of psychological damage caused by this monumental
catastrophe, which continues to this day.
