Elena is taken with riding through the Chernobyl “dead zone” on her motorbike.
Actually, some people coming back to their homes and settle down, those mostly old people who do not care if they die today or tomorrow. important is to die at home.
marauders in radiation poluted area are not just a regular marauders, they don’t steal stuff for themselves. There were cases of radiactive tv sets and other stuff being sold on city second hand markets and then police shot 7 or 8 of them and it helped
Houses open and everything as people left it 18 years ago.
Usually a police officer who call himself a town guard was telling me that I was in town alone. then I could hit roads with no worry that I will run accross some car. This town might be an attractive place for tourists. Some tourists companies have been trying to arrange extrim tours in this town, but people- their customers scared and have been complaining about silence which is hard to stand in empty town. They charged 210 us dollars for 2 hours excursion and town guard say, they all were leaving in some 15 mins, complaining that silense is tremendous as if one got deaf.
A truly fascinating tour. Links found on DPH(Who knows where they are since DPH died.)
update: it would seem the combination of boingboing, slashdot and diepunyhumans did a one two punch on Elena’s site. Thankfully she has a new home here. But don’t tell the big blogging guys.
DPH gives up this necessary update.
