Sadly, that plant in Russia, IS a tourist destination, apparently doing well
with Europeans? kinda explains them as well... lol (Joking) I made a
scary mistake 20 years ago, turned down a high paying job at a battery

friggin short to get lead poisoning last fking thing I want to do is go
visit a freaking leaking f'ing reactor site...
