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.'"

    You're a fucking contrarian twit


    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?
