    Planets do not have a sexual orientation. People do. Planets do not. Furthermore, Saturn is not a terrestrial planet like Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are. It does not have a rocky surface that you could land on. Saturn is really one big ball of argon and xenon gas with lots of helium and hydrogen thrown in. So what would you propose that we land on?

    The more interesting prospects are some of the satellites of the gas giants (such as Europa, Ganymede, Titan, etc.) There are missions en route as we speak (i.e. Cassini) to do just that. However, the satellites, like the planets, also have no sexual orientation.

    Someone just came up with the most recent report on Chernobyl. In short? You're full of shit. Every person on site at Chernobyl is being tracked even to this day. Most illnesses were in small children who developed Thyroid cancer. This is due to radioactive Iodine isotopes taking the place of regular Iodine in the diet. Most of those children were treated, and very few died. (BTW, radioactive fallout was one of the reasons for adding Iodine to salt. If you get enough regular Iodine, your body will ignore the isotopes.)

    At this point, people in Norway are getting higher radiation doses than those in the Chernobyl area. As one final check, I asked my wife (who's from Russia) what she knew about "Chernobyl disabilities". She did know a few people from the Chernobyl area, and her opinion was that you're full of crap.
