Chernobyl...18 Years Later
abysmilliard writes "A young Ukrainian woman has posted a photo journal of her motorcycle rides through Chernobyl and the area surrounding it. Included are pictures of the now-emptied city, maps of current radiation levels, and a discussion of how the area has changed. While the english is quite broken, it's often rather surreal, as well, with quotes like, 'I don't know how sound the silence to those tourists that they can not stand it, but to me after hitting a red line on my bike tacho it sound like all those ghosts cursing 1100cc kawasaki engin.'"
All I have to say is "daymn!" She is hot! Like, nuclear hot!
"Come on, let's go drink till we can't feel feelings anymore."
The US Patent and Trademark Office has invalidated Eolas' patent covering plug-ins! Back to your regularly scheduled discussion.
Any woman who rides is good in my books.
...nevermind.
Comment is off topic.
Yeah, but what does this have to do with how great Apple is, and how we should all be worshipping Apple? (even though they dont give 2 shits about the Lunix community except for their common bond through homosexuality)
You're pretty observant!

Shared the big 18th with a definitive man-made disaster. Holla back 86ers! Anyway yeah wow that's terrible...

this guy is just a troll trying to gain some extra karma to keep on trolling
MOD DOWN
just links back to angel fire!
loser!
What an incredible journey that was. It also shows how destructive a poor engineering design can be. Hundreds of thousands dead. Amazing. This was truly a moving exprience.
It's amazing how this comment gets moderated down and the post talking about a bisexual Jesus can get moderated up.
why are you rewarding this? the mirror just links back to angel fire and he is posting this crap to almost every thread in this story.
what a wanker
Chernobyl comes to visit YOU!
Wow. You're telling me that have nuclear reactors to do slashdot moderation?! Of course! When a site gets slashdotted, the unfortunate server probably gets shot to kingdom come. Think if we could harness that power....
Oh, and how do I get a 3000 degree karma?
Stop the Slashdot effect! Don't read the articles!
The next 30 minutes there is going to be alot of "cable pulling" if you know what I mean.
If, by "contrarian" you mean I think instead of following the trend, thank you.
spouting factless nonsense,
Have you checked the facts I presented? How about doing it? I guess the environmental laws in most countries would be different if people knew the true causes of cancer and other serious diseases. These facts aren't secret, they are widely available to anyone. Only it's much more convenient and face-saving to blame your cancer on mercury and radiation rather than the unhealthy habit of eating candy and snacks that you have cultivated since early childhood...
How about next time you shut the fuck up?
How about the next time you log in? Are you afraid to show your identity when you climb on your soapbox to shout the same BS that was fashionable twenty years ago?
HAHAHA... this is the most appropriate Soviet Russia joke I've ever seen. Good job!
is made by humans to humans without the need of radiation in Guantanamo.
This Government which says that they take care of peple are making experiments with this people as nazis used to do.
If they eventually get freedom their mind will be so fucked off that there will be no money to pay them. It's what the government of freedom and liberty chips has done.
Can the torture and lies they told us be measured with dozimeters?
You need to go to fark.com. The home of the most insensitive bastards in the world.
Isaiah 13:
19 And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
20 It shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation: neither shall the Arabian pitch tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold there.
21 But wild beasts of the desert shall lie there; and their houses shall be full of doleful creatures; and owls shall dwell there, and satyrs shall dance there.
22 And the wild beasts of the islands shall cry in their desolate houses, and dragons in their pleasant palaces: and her time is near to come, and her days shall not be prolonged.
Ah, you're just pissed 'cuz he's attracted to one of those icky girls, instead of you.
May I suggest a junket to the deep south (someplace straight out of Deliverance) or Greece?
that's why i read at funny -3
Is this the wrong time and place to remind everybody that Chornobyl is in Ukraine, not The Ukraine, and Ukraine is not Russia, Ukrainians are not Russians, that the winds on the day carried most of the damaging fallout into Belarus, which is not, by the way, Belorussia and Rus has nothing to do with Russia other than being the progenitor state from which Russia emerged, along with Ukraine and Belarus.
Bah. Russian imperialism is still alive, sadly.

Do not meddle in the affairs of geeks for they are subtle and quick to anger
You joke about things as a way to handle and relate to them. Look at the incredible Jewish humour traditions.
That said -- there are things I don't joke about, because it's a bit too close to friends. Like rape -- which can give mental problems. But it would feel like failure if I e.g. got cancer and failed to joke about it.
(This I should do Anon, but never mind. I'll stand up for this point.)
Karma: Excellent (My Karma? I wish...:-( )
I'd sure love to run a beowulf cluster on HER box!
