[RC] way OT but since you brought it up - k s swigartLisa Salas said about http://www.kiddofspeed.com/ Interesting tour of Chernobyl on the back of a bike. Doesn't sound like there is a lot of wildlife there. The author says at one time the only way to describe what she is feeling would be to say she feels deaf as there is no sound of birds or even wind. Quoted from the above referenced site itself: After "Elena" brought this story to light, everyone that claims to be an expert has come forward identifying it as a hoax or a fraud. Alternatively, you can go to the following link and find a veritable pleothora of other stories to the contrary: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=chernobyl+wildlife So, which are you lend more credence to "everbody that claims to be an expert" or some "woman" (I put this in quotes because the woman may not even exist, especially since all invitations to be interviewed have been refused...also reported on the site itself) on a motorcycle who wants to assert that 20+ years later nuclear radiation puts a stop to all things, even the wind? Granted this may be a person on a one-woman crusade with the intent of revealing a fraud that is being perpetrated by officialdom; however, since many of the people who are reporting the fact that wildlife is teeming in and around Chernobyl are environmentalists who are not only surprised but somewhat dismayed that Chernobyl isn't a lifeless wasteland like they would have hoped, I have my doubts. kat Orange County, Calif. :) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
