I would say though that talking much more in detail about STALKER or other movies and entertainment based off of the accident is a bit derailing and just slightly disrespectful when the subject matter of the thread is serious.
I'm not trying to be disrespectful here. Chernobyl was a horrible thing....but it interests me. I'm curious and I'm just saying it's interesting to learn about.

I am a little surprised that you could have watched the video I posted and still wanted to talk about entertainment and used the tone that you did in your post.I am not trying to correct you don't take me the wrong way.Maybe you did not watch the video if not you should try to follow the posts in a thread better.You do not have to read every word watch every second but you do want to have a firm grasp of how the thread is flowing.
I don't watch any videos that are posted usually. My internet connection can't handle youtube very well so it's pointless to even try.

Nah...you're right for calling me on that one. I'm being kind of derailing and maybe disrespectful to any Russians or anyone who was directly affected by this disaster. I don't mean any of it. I know that this was a terrible, terrible, terrible thing and it has ruined that area for the next 10,000 years. I just love the "Post-Apocalyptic Survival" stuff and Chernobyl is one of my ( I really HATE to say this. I'm not trying to be disrespectful. ) favorite of the "Apocalyptic" disasters. Not because lots of people died and had to leave home...but I think it makes for a really cool story because the people who live there are basically living Fallout 3 or STALKER every day without the mutants (or are there mutants? ) and without most of that fictional crap. This is the real deal and IT HAPPENED! Sometimes I have a hard time believing that something like that happened. It just seems so crazy...



I've stated before that I sometimes have a dark sense of humor and a dark way of looking at things. Not all the time...I do have positive outlooks...but there's the odd thing that comes along....Chernobyl...while not "cool and interesting" to all of you...it's cool and interesting to me. It's not exactly the best thing for an international forum and a disaster as bad as this... I know... I apologize for anything that might have offended anyone in any way. It's an intriguing subject....

If there are any survivor stories....I'd actually love to read/hear those. I haven't actually heard/read any personal accounts of the disaster. I only know what I've seen from entertainment and Wikipedia.
