They aren't in a single, small space. They have an area set up away from the main living quarter that they've been able to use for that purpose.

I think that the thing I would want the most in that situation would be a very good pair of ear plugs.

Rescue drill should reach trapped miners within 24 hours

Copiapo, Chile (CNN) -- A rescue drill is 40 meters (about 130 feet) away from reaching 33 trapped Chilean miners and should get to them within 24 hours, the nation's mining minister said Friday afternoon.

Efforts to start pulling the miners out should begin from three to 10 days afterward, Mining Minister Laurence Golborne said.

Good news.

They're starting the rescue right now and putting the rescue capsule down the hole.  CNN has live video.

Looks like CNN jumped the gun on their announcement.  They're not planning on starting the actual rescue for another hour or two.

....and it was an American drilling crew that punched thru to 'em.

They say the American heading the crew is a national hero in Chile.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Perhaps they are doing their level best to keep the miners away from people for that reason alone?

He's the next one that is coming up.  Shep Smith said that each miner was allowed to ask for three people to attend the rescue.  He asked for both his wife and mistress to be there. 

The mistress is is there, possibly, but the wife refused to show up.  Dude is stupid or has some big balls.
