Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Nuclear

[Doug and Terri Anderson (dnt]

I strongly urge everyone to visit Chernobyl and Pripiat (where the reactor was 
- 10 miles north of Chernobyl) via Elena's web site as she motors through on 
her as she describes it a  "Kawasaki big ninja, ZZR-1100 (ZX-11) [which] is 
also known as "big Zed" or "eleven."

For the record - Ted Kennedy still holds the death record - - more people have 
died riding home from a party with him than have died as a result of a US 
nuclear accident. 

Elena describes 100,000s who perished via the Chernobyl incident.  She carries 
a Geiger counter and will have to pass though various check points going in and 
coming out of the "Dead Zone."

She has a nice easy writing style and tons of easy loadable pictures split into 
chapters - and riding this bike - will give clYdE a run for his money.  As she 
discusses the disaster - "Radiation will stay in the Chernobyl area for the 
next 48.000 years, but humans may begin repopulating the area in about 600 
years - give or take three centuries."

Onward
