Here is a link to a translation I made awhile ago, called "Chernobyl - Invisible Death". What I found more interesting, from the same book, was a chapter titled: Soldiers of the Chelyabinsk Chernobyl, about disasters in the Soviet/Russian nuclear weapons industries.

I'm betting it takes only ten posts before someone puts up a link to the debunked story of a motorcycle ride through Chernobyl.

Regarding chernobyl. There's a really insteresting web log that I read on the web a whil ago, but can't find it again. It's the personal chrinicales of thie young russions woman who rides a sport bike (motorchcyle) and tours the affected ghost town area.. with a dosimeter.. and takes pictures and measurements... not for any poitical agenda just I guess for her own reasons, but created a really interested photo journal of it. I wish I could find it again. Anyone know what I am talking about or can point me in the right directions? (As I recall she was kinda hot, too)

Apparently everything sbout the story was real except the motorcycle part. She actually went by car into the area, but sexed it up with saying she rode a motorcycle. Still interesting.

Hey, I read that whole piece on the motorcycle ride but didn't save the link. I wondered what a nice girl like her was doing in a place like that? Didn't know it was bunk. Do you have the link to the de-bunking? Thanks.
