Re: Chernobyl
I'm curious to how they can continue to operate the other 3 reactors. Is it because their shielded against radiation - so they're not as affected by their proximity to the accident site as say, the town was? Or is the accident site less radioactive because of the absorbing materials they dumped on it?

Well, there's no particular reason the equipment wouldn't work unless there was physical damage.
Close the connections to the bad reactor and replace any nessesary parts...
Then its just a matter of getting people to go to work in that environment.

Re: Chernobyl
In America, and I think other countries, radiation workers have a much higher limit on the amount of radiation they can recieve.
Both limits are way below the hair falling out stage, but the general population limit or "Safe" level is much lower.
