Hello everybody!!!
I understand that this will happen not tomorrow or next month. But some day it will happen! I propose to start discussing about the right time and place for this event Smile

Vote for Kiev, Ukraine!
1. + It is easy to get visa
2. + Several flea markets with samovars, balalaykas, mobo and CPUs
3. +Cheap beer
4. +Lots of beautiful girls
5. +Equidistant from America and China, close to Europe.
6. +Many intersting historical places (Kiev is 1500 years old)
7. +(-) 90 km to Chernobyl Smile
8. - Expensive hotels (maybe the situation will be changed after Euro2012 football)

He bought dosimeter. It shown 17 microroentgen in Norway and 12 microroentgen here in Kiev Smile.

NBC suit and you're okay LOL but I'd like to see you having a drip after cheap fourth beer round...



Another reason is to go around the places where STALKER story is located Wink

Some black market shopping, so Cpushack goes back home with a Kalashnikov, brand new, maybe romanian variant for 3x2 discount.


I can't see a reason not go, plus we have a personal tour guide!

I can assure you all that Kiev is not Chernobyl.
Should you be afraid of Leaning Tower of Pisa being in Rome or Milan? Smile

Naples is the most dangerous city now (some hotels provide worthless plastic watches), Pisa, Rome and Milan are relatively safe (don't believe what italian politicians say, they don't believe it either...).

Iguana if I can have an uranium candy bar we have a deal with a handshake.

We joke with the nuclear power plant attraction Chernobyl, in fact it's funny but we know it hasn't been lots of fun in the past.

It's an "open day", implies one day only?


If so it isn't very interesting for me, the costs for a one day event rise too high. I'd go to London instead for a week.

Can't we do something in London, a pre-Kiev event?
