Re:	Soviet nuclear waste disaster

There is copious documentation for this disaster;  there have been articles
in New Scientist especially about it, though I have seen articles in other
publications (Science? Don't remember offhand).  The only nit is that it
really didn't get close to critical (or at least is not widely believed to
have gotten close to critical), it's just that the heat of decomposition got
so high that it disintegrated its dump site ...
