Comment on A Parallel World?
Spotted_Lady@wolfballs.com 2 years agoYes, but doing that using both definitions of "underground" would be hard. As bad as the construction would be and making it not collapse, the real problem would be the logistics of living in your hidden cities. I mentioned supply chains, ingress, egress, and security, and yes, there is more to it. Sanitation would be a major concern. And preventing annexation into any existing government.
Underground cities have been done in the past, and every once in a while, someone discovers one. One thing they always do wrong is blab.

Plus you would be labelled as morlocks or troglodytes.

Health is another concern. Rigging up UV lighting and taking vitamin D is only part of the remedy.

I am in the tropics, no shortage of both.

Again, we are talking about literal underground living. I shouldn't have to be forced to restate the topic when the context of my post can literally be found 3 posts up from your reply.
You won't have either underground unless you artificially produce it. However, scientists haven't quite figured out how to keep folks the most healthy without the sun. Tanning beds and UV light can cause cancer, and giving vitamin D pills and some light exposure doesn't do the same for mental health.
