SCHAITBERGER: ... well, certainly, that there are scores of our members that still have not been accounted for.

But the point is...

MATTHEWS: You mean, if you were to dig through the dumps, to be very blunt about this-for people watching, I'm sorry, but this is a political charge you have got to deal with. You're saying, if you went through the dumps, you would find skeletons of people?

SCHAITBERGER: Unfortunately, there are remains that would be found in the dumps. And, unfortunately, there are remains that are still part of that site, and they were continued-we continued to be find them and discover them up until a few months ago.

MATTHEWS: But he already found the gold.

SCHAITBERGER: No, he found the gold on October 31. And on November 1 is when he issued the order to remove the firefighters from their recovery mode.
