Oy

Sometimes I think that all that Cold War Sci-fi I've read has gotten to me: I just spent some time looking at pictures of Chernobyl, now, and reading about some nut who motorcycles through there, for fun.

It's a pretty interesting site, though. Makes me glad someone was crazy enough to do it for the rest of us...

I've read a lot of Cold War era SF, too, and looked at that site, but I don't think they're really connected, for me. Reading about and seeing pictures of Chernobyl doesn't really make me think about nuclear war, it just makes me think about how horrible a disaster like that can be, and how careful humans need to be when dealing with powerful things.
