Palimpsest
Living vicariously through our customers
Monday, September 24, 2007 — posted by Sarah
We've received orders from some pretty faraway places for our books...Qatar, Saudi Arabia, India, Japan, and Australia to name a few.But we have a new winner in the Most Interesting category: Kivalina, Alaska
View Larger Map
Kivalina was evacuated in early September because of flooding: there's an AP story here.
It sounds sort of like the North Carolina Outer Banks:
The community sits on a 600 foot-wide sand reef...Well, except for this part:
...625 miles northwest of Anchorage and 90 miles north of the Arctic Circle.There's more information about Kivalina, which is described by the AP as an Inupiat Eskimo village, here.
It's oddly compelling to know that residents of Kivalina are interested in technical communication.
