Maybe they could eat the spiders..

Would you rather they tell you they can't rescue you for 4 months or would you rather wake up and hope that today is the day..

I need to know..would seem horrible to keep it dragging on, least knowing they have that long you could prepare yourself.

I don't understand the question asked in the OP. What's a Chilean Miner?

Arathain, I'm glad you asked for the toilet first...

But yea, I think I'd be worried about sanitation in the confined space, so I'd be asking to implement some way to dispose of waste.

A decent light source, with a natural spectrum of light (i.e. feels/looks like sunshine).

Some way to stay in touch with the outside world... perhaps pipe local radio in, and a way to communicate with friends family.

Other than decent food and clean water, and other 'basics', I think that covers the necessities.

Extras... yea some way to pass the time...


From what I have read, they are using a seperate "room" in the mine for their toilet. There are now three access holes that have been drilled...one for supplies, one for communications, and one for air.

It will apparently take weeks, maybe longer, to get them out. That they are still alive after this long, and so disciplined as to eat a very little amount of food every other day, is incredible! My thoughts go out to them and their families!

I'd become more and more agitated over time if they didn't tell me. "Hey, ****, what the hell are you doing up there????"

Anyway, it looks like they broke the news to them. They are experienced miners, I doubt they were too surprised.

It seems they are getting PSP's to play with.

Not my first choice, but I guess beggars can't be choosers :p
