Tjernobyl

OK, living in the reinder belt of Scandinavia, the weapon tests hasn't poisoned us that much and the plutonium hasn't been that much of a problem, but jee, you shure has dug you head into the ground like a ostridge. Have you never heard of a fishy place called Tjernobyl. That bastard is still giving people here cancer. Since we have less of the shit called Strontium 90 ( not as poisones as plutonium, but shure as deadly), they every year sends a lot of cancerous children from the area around Tjernobyl to us for a "clean" summer holiday.

How many new things have we found (virus or bacteria doesn't matter) and still more are coming, AIDS? do you belive^([sic]) it has been there always? do you remember Tjernobyl? nothing to do with virus or bacteria, but what happened? I would say humans stupidity (money again) give them some not so hightech equipment that doesn't work 100% and then let some ppl that don't know what it is use it.
