utterly fascinating page of photos and text from a young woman who rides her motorcycle through the "dead zone" of Chernobyl. Apparently those who come for "extreme tourism" can't stand the silence. It's a bit like watching
Stalker, which freaked me out

Funny, because I routinely misspell San Francisco.
I was forced by my thesis advisor to get with the program and learn to spell apocalypse or die of embarrassment during my defense. That's the only reason I know how to spell it so well.
On the LJ thing, I can dig "read by", but I'm not sure about the "trusted by" - I think that one goes a step beyond "friend of" in terms of the conspiracy minded. I may very well read an LJ of a person I don't like, don't trust, but get endless amount of amusement from. Not that I do that, but I could. ;)

Thanks for posting to the deadzone website, btw. I just read though it now and it's rather amazing. Gutsy lady to ride though there on her bike.

Isn't that the coolest site? If she had a mailto link, I'd totally propose to her.

Considering a trip to the area when I visit a friend in Latvia (well, if I visit, considering my current finances. . . ), haven't thought of it before, but the dead zone might now be listed as something to see. Though there's something about the idea of it being a tourist attraction that feels very icky. If I couldn't do it on my own or with some friends, I don't think I'd do it.
