    MO has the second most caves, only behind TN, so there is that, not to mention temps stay very constant below ground. I believe many around KC metro were originally used by Dept of Defense during the Cold War. I know of one in MO that came to be after the quarry was finished mining, so they are essentially being repurposed.

    It's fixed. The truck has stopped far short of where we wanted to be, but The OM said we are to wait here until the morrow.

    Dunning–Kruger effect
    You can find the Dunning Kruger effect in action on the road. Studies have found that less experienced drivers overestimate their driving abilities. For example, a new driver might believe that they are excellent and take risks a more experienced driver would avoid.
