This was a big story on CNN today, 4 months. Trapped 700m down, humid and hot at hell...for 4 months! They have about 1.8km of non collapsed tunnel to roam in, they are trapped in small space. Naval and Nasa experts on prolonged confined isolation have been brought in to help with the psychological aspect - Its going ot make an unique and fascinating psychological study. Wonder if any ph.d students have just found their thesis subject. Four months, and they haven't told them yet it will four months, they are figuring out how to break the news gently. Hope the miners get paid overtime for 4 months.

Ok, update on the rescue efforts. News keeps interrupting the TV.

Rescue Workers are on the way down, they will decide the order on who goes up based on physical and mental health condition.

Real worry is that ANY problem at ANY time might block the tunnel, stopping/ending the rescue effort.

Guess the ride up in that narrow cage must be one of the worst periods for the miners any bump, stop, etc can mean being stuck.

Also think that the given 48hrs period for all the guys to come up is a bit optimistic as there will be delays, adjustements, etc.

Hoping everything goes smooth.
