| I posted this a year or so ago, its a site that chronicles a Russian bikers travels through the dead zone on a Japanese crotch rocket. Thought provoking with interesting pictures. |

| #6 Yea, but what about the 5 foot diameter mutant cabbage. And the cows with 4 udders. Those easily feed the kids born with two mouths. |

| #4 Few people truly understand the ultimate ramifications of what the meltdown meant. One of the most fertile places on earth is California's San Joaquin Valley. In places the topsoil can be 500' deep. One of the only other locations of such fertility on this entire planet was a small Ukraine town called "Chernobyl." Soviet Russia poisoned their own bread basket. This is the lingering crime that will always go unanswered as people in the region starve for food each winter. |

| #2 That photo where she's yards away from the reactor itself with a rad meter in her hand is creepy. I wouldn't get within a quarter of a mile of that place. Exploring the city's abandoned buildings sounds like fun tho... |
