They are taking him to hospital. Please keep praying....more info later.." UPDATE from another Desert Sun story: "He was conscious when the rescuers found him and was talking with them, but he does have some injuries and some exposure issues,” park spokesman Joe Zarki said. UPDATE: Park spokesman Zarki tells the AP that Rosenthal is "expected to recover from heat exhaustion and other minor injuries." [Desert Sun/Blogdowntown]
