Is this a fair rule when there is an elevator and the rule is you have to ride with an adult if you are under the age of 16?
There are probably good reasons why there is a rule saying that you have to ride the elevator with an adult if you are under the age of 16. There might be a safety reason, such as an elevator that is not completely enclosed. The elevator may be located in a building that has restrictions such as no children under the age of 16 may live in the building. Or that children under the age of 16 must be supervised by an adult, etc. Maybe children under the age of 16 have caused problems in the elevator so now all children have to be supervised in the elevator.

Can a roach survive a nuclear bomb?
Yes and No. Yes if they are in an enclosed space they are immune to radiation given off from a nuclear bomb.

No, if they are above ground when the shock wave comes around they will be killed just like any other thing. (By the way when i say enclosed space i mean really enclosed like inside a phone pole r something) But chances are they will die at ground zero. The only real dangers to them are the shock wave and ground zero
