Those who died within 4000’ of the Hiroshima blast died of burns/vaporization.

I find no references to radioactive material at Chernobyl other than cesium-137 and strontium-90; both have half-lives around 30 years.

Meaning that in 1000 years they will have decayed to roughly one-billionth of their current levels.

Do you have any references to longer half-life isotopes than those? If not, your claim of “dangerously radioactive for 10,000 years” is specious fear-mongering.

First, let’s cover the obvious. Hiroshima was a nuke bomb INTENDED to do maximum damage from one fission bomb. Chernobyl was an Industrial accident Not Intended to have so much damage. Hiroshima is not a very good analogy for industrialized nuke fission.

Second, those who died, died. There were very few survivors which was exactly what I wrote in response to your POS snarky post.

Third, just because you find no references to sumthin doesn’t mean — by a far cry— that the data doesn’t exist. There are none so blind as those who refuse to see, especially those who climb over the dead bodies of victims waving their agenda flag.

Fourth, just look at the simple google result on my post just prior to this one. The result is dozens of references to the TWENTY thousand years of dangerous levels of radioactivity.

Fifth, I aint playing your game. You think Chernobyl is safe, then move there and post from there. The land is very cheap.

6th, there is nothing specious about the dangers of the 3 nuclear accidents so far at Fukushima, 3 mile island, and Chernobyl. It is PROOF that fission is a dangerous approach. It’s also proof that jerks like you will never acknowledge the OBVIOUS dangers. Clean up your mess before asking us to luve in more of it.
