Some time ago a friend sent me a link to Chernobyl Revisited. A Russian women who rides a motorcycle travels to and posts pictures and her thoughts from what she sees around and near the Chernobyl disaster. It is very revealing and put up an example below because more than once she comments on how totally spooky silent it is everywhere. This is worth perusing a bit and I guess this is what will be coming to parts of Japan sooner than later.
This town might be an attractive place for tourists. Some tourists companies have been trying to arrange tours in this town, but the first group of tourists found the silence unnerving and downright SPOOKY. And it is. They charged 1200 hryvnas for a 2 hour excursion and after some 15 minutes, they wanted to flee to the outside world. The silence here is deafening.
I watched a segment about Chernobyl on PBS recently that was very interesting. Yes, the sound of silence....
ReplyDeleteLast year, I wrote a post on Chernobyl and mentioned that woman (a nuclear scientist's daughter). Everyone should read her descriptions of the place; it's a must as scientists and heads of states don't tell us the truth about consequences of nuclear power.
ReplyDeleteOn the contrary, they cooperate with lies, such as the climate is changing because of daily polution. No, it's changing because of nuclear experiments and the burying of nuclear waste which God knows how and where it is done.
Duta I searched for Chernobyl at your place and it brought nothing up. I would like to read that.
