Chernobyl survivor interview - Over at the New Scientist site
Alexander Yuvchenko (one of the few surviving workers at the site)
talks about the day Chernobyl went kablooie.
"...we walked outside. What we saw was terrifying. Everything
that could be destroyed had been. The entire water coolant system was
gone. The right-hand side of the reactor hall had been completely
destroyed, and on the left the pipes were just hanging."
"From where I stood I could see a huge beam of projected light
flooding up into infinity from the reactor. It was like a laser light,
caused by the ionisation of the air. It was light-bluish, and it was
very beautiful. I watched it for several seconds. If I'd stood there
for just a few minutes I would probably have died on the spot..."

Surviving the Political Season
Surviving the Political Season
09/07/2004 02:41 PMI've been completely frustrated with the level of political discourse
this year here in the US. With only two months left in the election,
neither candidate has come forward and provided a detailed plan for
what they'd like to see happen for the future. "I'll put more money in
the pockets of the working family" really isn't helping me make any
decisions.
However, there are a couple of good sites online that can help you cut
through the misleading statements that the candidates are making in
their bids to snow their way into office.

Surviving Two Weeks With No Internet
Surviving Two Weeks With No Internet
09/22/2004 04:20 AMJust how much do you rely on the internet on a daily basis? There are
some people who can easily leave the internet completely behind when
on vacation. However, what about doing everyday things that you've
come to rely on it for? An experiment sponsored by Yahoo had 28
people
give up the internet for two weeks to see how they coped. Not
everyone took it so well. They increased usage of other media like
the telephone, television and movies to replace the missing internet.
One couple claims their phone bill tripled. While the lack of email
was definitely a nuisance, it was "the little things" that really
seemed to get to some. Not being able to get directions online and
(the most embarrassing situation, apparently) not knowing how to boil
an egg, and having no idea where to go to figure it out seemed to be
the biggest problem. Honestly, though, for all the talk about people
being "addicted" to the internet, this suggests that's not the case at
all for the (small) group of people involved in this experiment. It's
just that they find the internet useful in getting random every day
tasks done.

Business Week profiles Gary Stern, president of the world's
only pinball machine maker.
In 1932, there were an estimated 150 pinball-machine
makers worldwide ... Although sales have remained stable at about
10,000 units a year, the coin-op business has been on a downward
trajectory for years. As recently as the early 1990s, the industry
churned out more than 100,000 machines annually.
