| − | ::It sounds like you must have some good information to make that statement so plainly - maybe you should correct the appropriate section on Wikipedia ({{w|Number_of_the_beast#616}}) and add your references/citations. It would seem several sources (including the oldest known ''"version"'' of the text) indicates '616' as a "variant" [[User:Brettpeirce|Brettpeirce]] ([[User talk:Brettpeirce|talk]]) 12:59, 18 April 2014 (UTC)

| − | Regarding the house near Pripyat explanation, "the glass facade references radioactive glassy minerals created by the explosion" seems to be conflating the Corium produced at Chernobyl with the Trinitite produced by nuclear explosion at Alamogordo. There was a steam explosion at Chernobyl, but the Corium was produced by the heat of the subsequent meltdown, not by the force of the explosion. The current explanation also includes, "It may also be the nuclear facility itself, depending on interpretation; ...". It seems clear to me that the apartment for rent is the nuclear facility itself, and not some house in Pripyat, which is "5-min drive" away; why else the "Three floors w/pool, rooftop garden, beautiful glass facade". -- [[Special:Contributions/108.162.219.43|108.162.219.43]] 12:03, 18 April 2014 (UTC)

| − | :Agreed. I have edited to reflect the same, and have also noted the likelihood that the "pool" referenced is probably temporary containment for spent nuclear fuel. Not so sure about the "3-level" thing, though. My knowledge of nuclear power plant design is extremely limited. [[User:Orazor|Orazor]] ([[User talk:Orazor|talk]]) 12:20, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

| − | I just reread this and I think that the the pool in question may be the glass walled three story swimming pool azure in pripyat. The same one as was in modern warfare. [[Special:Contributions/173.245.54.167|173.245.54.167]] 13:48, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
