I’m so relieved that the Chilean miners are on their way out! I can’t imagine what it would be like to be trapped underground for an hour, much less almost 70 days or whatever it’s been. I can barely tolerate that I don’t have a window in my office (though I was promised nearly six years ago that it wouldn’t be “long” before I got one) — no natural light for months! Egads.
What do you talk about with the same 32 other people for that long? I suppose that’s kind of a lot of people, but still. How many arguments were there? Did they keep regular sleeping hours? Eating hours? Quiet time? I heard something about one guy was going on up to six mile runs. How does that work?
I can’t imagine having someone I love underground for all that time, either. And I really never imagined that this would be a problem. Hmm.
And thanks to Aaron for this op-ed on the frustrating Senate race.
