OT (very OT) a most disturbing site

I found this web site to be unique, disturbing but totally compelling.
I couldn't stop until I had see it all! The girl has a
interesting sense of humor?sarcasm? absurdity?
An interesting commentary anyway.

Don't think I have ever seen it posted here but then there
have been a lot of OT post over the years and it may have been.

It has a lot of photos and seems limited bandwidth
so if a lot of rccers swarm it, it may go off line until
next month.

The best way I know to describe the site is "chilling." It shows the
value of telling a story simply and directly. I found out about the
site on slashdot, and it's received other high-profile web exposure.

Strongly recommended.

Simply out of curiosity I clicked on the link without knowing what to
expect. I never expected it to be what it is! It's hard to believe that 20
years have passed since this terrible accident.

Thanks for posting & sharing this link. I too share your sediments on this
site, Dale.

If 1 reactor can do this, think what a nuclear war would do...1
missile, 10 missiles, hundreds, thousands? 600 (minimum) years with
no place on earth inhabitable. And I'm not preaching disarmament and
giving the enemy the upper hand in nuclear arms...just stopping to
think of the consequences if we ever had to go to war and use nukes.

It would take a braver person than I am to motor through the dead
towns and countrysides. Can't help but think of all those zombie and
living dead (and Omega Man) movies when you see a setting like this.
Scary thing is we are just as close to the same situation here in the
states. It just takes a minute of inattnetion or carelessness. Not
to mention those lost radioactive control rods they are talking about
in the news.

Hiroshima and Nagasaki are thriving cities. The little bikini atoll
islands where they did nuclear testing are safe to visit too.

I think this is one of the coolest sites that I have ever seen. The rewards of
nuclear energy are immense, as are the risks.
In my opinion, nuclear energy can solve a lot of problems in the world. It is
more of a solution than a problem. With that said, it would still be useful to
take every politician and nuclear technician with this woman for a little ride!

Not a bad idea Mike. I found the site pretty darn cool myself.
If any of you have ever driven through the Hanford Reservation in
Washington state, it is some of the most desolate looking land that you
have ever seen. Last time I went through there it looked like moonscape
because there was a HUGE fire there the year before.

Interested in error coins?

Nick is a DICK!
Reid is a troglodyte!

This site has been going around a lot of newsgroups. I have to wonder how
real it is.

Interesting observation, Bob.
Which bits do you find unreal?
It seems like a fairly straight documentary observation to me.
Not sufficiently values-neutral?

Me - I found it, like the OP, disturbing and very sad.
Like you, I also found it unreal - but I suspect my "unreal" is different to the
meaning you're suggesting.
