I would bet on them too. Every miner has to work daily in cramped, unsafe quarters. I believe they have gotten some telecommunications down to them...next could be small entertainment devices, food and water of course, soap..they have asked for toothbrushes...clean clothes...maybe kindles? Ear plugs so they don't have to listen to each other snore..

And a way of getting sewage up the shaft although they say there are tunnels they have been able to use...

I think most will be OK..although there is concern over a couple of heavier ones that might not get throught the planned hole. They are hoping they will lose weight in the meantime. mg
