A German journalist called <b>Boris Reitschuster</b> from a magazine called <i>FOCUS</i> has visited Chernobyl and written up an article about his experiences and impressions of the abandoned city. It's been translated by <b>HeadHunter</b> from <a href="http://www.oblivion-lost.com/">Oblivion-Lost.com</a>, and the translation can be found <a href="http://stalker.myexp.de/forum/viewtopic ... uote><i>On our way back we see dead villages. Then Chernobyl. A mutated city. 6,500 people live here today. They arrive in shifts for four days of work here – then home for three days. They live in the old houses which are “community dwellings� today. They work in the “deadly zone� – that is how they call the 30 kilometers around the power plant. Lumberjacks, scientists, firemen. A city without children and without old people. Everywhere empty, run-down houses. No cars – just trucks every now and then.</i></blockquote>It's spooky reading. There are some interesting pictures in the article as well.
