From RageBoy, I got a link to the Chernobyl disaster’s Web site and especially the one about the sarcophagus currently encasing the Chernobyl site.
All you can say is wow. What a horrifying example of the institutional incompetence and arrogance of the former Soviet Union!
[UPDATE 7/9/03: Wired as an article about the site’s new sarcophagus.]
