This is pretty crazy.
3 weeks ago a mine collapesed in Chile, trapping 33 miners. THEY ARE STILL ALIVE. They are stuck in a 10m by 5m room. They lived this long rationing crackers and tuna and found water.
They spend their time playing cards and dominoes and planning their escape. The men have formed a democracy and have split into 3 teams: 1 in charge of contact with the surface, 1 in charge of security and safety, 1 in charge of health.
The stay in touch with families and officials above ground via items passed through a pipe 2,300 long. They just sent up a video of their cavern:

Here's the real kicker: They won't be able to get them out until around Christmas!
So SE++, what would you do if you were trapped for 4 months? What would you need to survive and maintaint your sanity? Who would you want to be trapped with? Who wouldnt you want to be trapped with?

and the 1 guy in charge of the Medical group got nominated in charge because he had the most experience: by caring for his diabetic mother. congrats! you're now the doctor.
yes, the pipe to the surface is big enough to slide canisters of food and bottles of water through
Hahaha. Grim situation, but that is kinda funny.
what kind of hat do you have, liiya?

I don't know how they are expected to survive for that long.
I assume they will sending them more than just tuna and crackers?
It never hurts to be prepared! With a fruit hat she wins either way.
It must be too terrible for words, all the little private moments we take for granted... gone
It's a fruit hat, so nutritious!
I was surprised those guys even lived at all, I hope they get out soon.
"Well, we would like to get you out immediately, but our rescue budget has already been exhausted for this year. I assure you come fiscal year 2011 we will start the process of discussing the budget in regards to your rescue."

way to retcon your hate franchise!
Speaking of that, we are now expanding to the west coast!
yes, liquid food and water has been sent through the hole, I imagine they will continue
safe for an earthquake or them going mad, they can make it
still

This is what I'm wondering. The place will be a cesspool by Christmastime
