DEAR RICHARD posted:Can we put a 'no sleep paralysis' rule in the OP? In addition, maybe ask folks to post at least a *little* information, if not a decent synopsis, of whatever the links are? Just to stave off any derails from others asking what the articles are about. As for me, I'm fascinated with (and terrified by) industrial disasters. Chemical spills, fires, and especially radioactive disasters like Chernobyl and Fukushima. Recently saw some articles about a spot within Chernobyl called the Elephant's foot. Apparently some of what's left over from the original meltdown that researchers have been investigating. Just ridiculous how lethal it is. http://nautil.us/blog/chernobyls-hot-mess-the-elephants-foot-is-still-lethal Quick Excerpt: 300 seconds will produce a relatively quick death, which is better than many alternatives. After just 30 seconds of exposure, dizziness and fatigue will find you a week later. Two minutes of exposure and your cells will soon begin to hemorrhage; four minutes: vomiting, diarrhea, and fever. 300 seconds and you have two days to live.
