Can you image how you would handle being trapped 3,200 feet underground, with conditions of 90 degrees Fahrenheit at 90 percent humidity, knowing you're going to be there for 3 to 4 months?

You and your 32 co-workers are packed into an area that's 540 square feet (that's a square 24 feet on each side). Each person has 16 square feet (a square 4 feet on a side).

The only thing approaching a nicety is that there's a 3-foot-tall shaft 130 feet long that's being used as a latrine.

Watching this unfold will be an interesting study in the psychology of survival.
