Last weekend I read in the news that there was an accident on Balakovo nuclear power station. Balakovo is the city in Saratov region, about 170 km from Saratov, the city where I lived and where my parents still live. Of course, Chernobyl immediately came to my mind. You can blame the communist government as much as you wish, but at least there was some order back then. Organized evacuations, free medical assistance, all that. Happen Chernobyl now, when the country is in chaos -- God knows what it would look like. And God (at least in Russia) is unemployed. My soul was in chaos too.
