    Default Let's hope this idea doesn't catch on.

    i would say bad idea no ventilation, made of fiberglass can get cracks from rocks in soil humidity from objects inside will create moisture and will soon stink and probably grow mold dont like it but probably a good idea in japan as the earth will protect from radiation
