[Rhodes22-list] Serious subject not related to sailing - Chernobyl Ukraine reactor today

[Michael D. Weisner]

Ed,

This site is simply captivating.  A graphic depiction of the aftermath of a 
hellish disaster of global proportion.

The writer's minimalist style only adds to the feeling of devastation.  You 
can almost "hear" the eerie silence.  I can see how the poor souls who died 
at Chernobyl, were drawn to watch at "the bridge."  Shake me, please, I need 
to get back to reality.  Very powerful stuff.  Thanks for the reference.
