Interesting article on kamis in Nepal

From year 2000
RE copper smithing

But with lots of familiar names
and many parallels with BirGorkha.

Good for perspective.

BTW---the main business website mentioned
is apparently no longer in business.
The site is now one of the tacky sites that
carries all those spam contacts we hate to receive.
The other two sites are still working and apparently
good & proper businesses.

So, the URL 'World2Market.com' was such a hot property that they sold out to the highest bidder? Sorta lame after the statements they made in the article. Maybe they promised the vulture capitalists something that they couldn't deliver. Faustian, man.

"sold out to the highest bidder?"

Or, they failed, crashed & burned, and the URL
went to the next person to claim it.

In either case.......:barf:
