Saturday Night Live when it was funny. One of the early years.

The smallest airport I’ve ever been in.

The only place you can fly to is a real airport.

One of my favorite sketches from back then. I remember watching it live.

I don’t remember the TMI incident at the time, but I live not far from there now. If I walk 100 yards up the road from my home on a clear day to the crest of the nearby hill, I can see the cooling towers at TMI about a dozen miles off in the distance.

Yep, the good old days when on Monday everybody at school would re-enact all the best scenes from the previous Saturday Night Live show.

My Mother was pregnant with me when this happened.

That explains much...

The HBO series was good but too much made up BS because they can't help themselves.

If you haven't seen it see 'Zero Hour" Chernobyl for a much better and real documentary (English) . In only one hour it is one of the best documentaries I have ever seen.

"What Parks found risked America being on “the verge of an apocalypse” capable of triggering “a meltdown that could take out Philadelphia, New York City and Washington, DC,”"

Hogwash!
Fake news!

The Goebbels brigade at its best...

My FIL worked for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission when this happened and contributed to some of the after action reports. He told me the risk ane danger were not nearly as dire as press reports made them out to be. This sounds like more leftist revisionist history and related wet dreams.
