New That suggests that you can indeed feel one inside the cave
Else the inside of the cave wouldn't get damaged.

Any cave that is fragile enough to collapse in routine earthquakes should have collapsed a long time ago. So I'd expect the cave to survive. The question is whether people inside the cave can feel the earthquake.

Cheers

New I would suspect they can if . . .
. . they're paying attention, and certainly in an area of actual earth movement. Propegation is in a nearly uncompressible medium and I doubt the cave would be large enough to generate a boundry effect, so I wouldn't be too surprised if working men missed it.
