BTW, 06th August was the day when the bomb dropped on Hiroshima, unleashing hitherto unknown destructiveness...

Radiation there is back to normal background radiation levels, but an A-bomb and a nuclear power plant ar two completely different stories. It largely depends on the half-life of the radioactive isotopes. Some of them are gone in seconds or minutes, some of them will still be around for thousands of years. Chernobyl is still at the center of a 20 kilometer no-go zone...
