julf veteran Registered: 01/10/2001 Posts: 1307 Loc: Amsterdam, The Netherlands	Remember it all too well. Was living far too close to it at the time. Also remember Al Aho (the "A" in awk) was visiting Helsinki aroud the time, so he had put "finland" in his newswire profile. For a couple of weeks there was the occasional item, and then suddenly one morning his mailbox was full... A large number of reindeer got hit by the radiation (they eat moss, and moss absorbs a lot of the stuff), and for a couple of years nobody picked mushrooms or berries in the Finnish woods...

pgrzelak carpal tunnel Registered: 15/08/2000 Posts: 4859 Loc: New Jersey, USA	There have been a few interesting articles on this recently, along with some other photographs. I find it almost optimistic (unusual for me) that wildlife has already reclaimed the area and is doing remarkably well now that humans have left. _________________________ *Paul Grzelak* 200GB with 48MB RAM, Illuminated Buttons and Digital Outputs
