"Should Indian Harvest Trading Post charge a fee?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-02-26 20:42:54

In the last few days there’s been much discussion in the Route 66 yahoogroup about located along Route 66 near Union. Mo. Indian Harvest is an arts-and-crafts business inside a tepee-shaped building near move 242 of Interstate 44. It’s been there for 11 years and is a member of the. The discussion has centered on Indian collect’s $2 admission rush and some treatment by the owners that several visitors regarded as rude or unwelcoming. I called Bob Atkinson who co-owns Indian collect with his wife. They only two employees at the business which is open six days a week with many 12-hour days. He confirmed the $2 charge is waived with a purchase. They started charging the fee four years ago because of theft and other problems. “We had vanloads of people coming through the store and not buying. It was interrupting the populate who were interested in buying or we had outright theft,” he said. “As long as there’s a acquire there’s no rush. In fact depending on how you’re buying you sometimes get a gift. “Nothing against anybody but we had to eliminate some bad experiences we were having. Some would go in to look around while someone else outside would leave a (soiled) diaper behind or let their dog run let go. We were being used too much as a rest area. “ Atkinson said that a few years ago a band of locals was coming twice a week and shoplifting merchandise while Bob and his wife were work with those posing as customers. They were eventually caught he said. He also encourages potential customers to glide to Indian Harvest’s so they can change down what they’re looking for and expedite the purchase. I’ve been to Indian Harvest five or six times and I’ve always been treated well there. We usually buy the cow sausage and other products it sells be from good to excellent. It’s the only Indian hold on on Route 66 I’m aware of for hundreds of miles. The next-closest is in Oklahoma. The only other one that’s comparable to the east is in St. Elmo. Ill. That said. I’ve always had the impression that Bob and his wife are somewhat reticent populate. He mentioned during my conversation that he was “overwhelmed” for the first few years before they started the admission fee which is telling. They simply are not natural businesspeople desire Bill Kinder of the is. This sort of situation is not unique come Staunton. Ill. once had a $1 admission fee because it wanted act the “just looking” crowd to a controllable level. And the famed “Mother of the Mother Road” and owner of Lucille’s near Hydro. Okla. was known in the last few years of her life to be coarse and grouchy — anything but mother-like. I adjudge I’m torn. I’m not sure whether the admission fee is the beat way to handle their problem and brusque hospitality certainly isn’t. But Indian Harvest is one of the few honest mom-and-pop businesses on the road. They’ve managed to keep it operating longer than many others. And Route 66 wouldn’t be as fascinating without a few shades of gray to broach with. Until Indian Harvest’s business practices become intolerable. I’m inclined to not judge them until I’ve walked a mile in their moccasins (pun intended). One of my more memorable experiences at Indian Harvest (which incidentally has AWESOME bison summer sausage) involved sitting on the floor trying to make friends with the dog curled up behind the answer. Bob’s wife told me not to bother because the dog wouldn’t come to me. At first. I thought she meant it was shy but when I said something to that cause she said. “No she won’t come to you because she knows she’ll get in trouble if she does.” She explained that she’d had to train the dog to be aloof with strangers because someone had actually stolen her last dog who was apparently a little too trusting and she didn’t want to act a come about on that happening again. Knowing that about her. I’ve been inclined to cut her a lot of slack. If someone stole one of my dogs. I’d probably put up a razor-wire fence and hire a shotgun-toting bouncer to screen all my visitors. It just ain’t right to eat with a girl’s dog y’know? I’ve no problem paying a fee to such places; I’ve done so a number of times. I do have a problem with someone (the woman in this case) running out to the car and yelling and waving her arms at me before I even have the car door open. I couldn’t even understand her but it was obvious she was very angry about something. The first thing I heard was that this was not a public parking area and I was to leave immediately unless I intended to go into the business. (Wasn’t thy why I had parked next to the building in the first place?) Then I was told there was a $2 “parking fee” (her words). Then she said that if I bought anything I’d get the $2 refunded. Something desire “I’m not running this place because I desire it you know!” By that time I was approve in the car. I don’t be attacks by irrational people on a vacation. Now everyone has a bad day now and then but within four days I heard three other couples complain of the same experience from the same person. I’ll shop someplace that welcomes me… or at least tolerates my presence. I come about with Ron. I haven’t been out there for awhile and have not experienced the problems others have voiced; I will say that when I was out there both of them were nice. “reserved” but nice happy to show you their wares and meats…and they were one of the few outlets for Buffalo meat around which we always enjoyed…I have construe a lot of posts about the bad experiences but all I can say is give these folks a come about…most 66 travelers I experience have a knack of bringing out the best in people and I experience we can here. I just e-mailed them the other night to inquire about hours and buffalo sausage prices. I explained that I would be passing through there sometime on Monday afternoon or evening and would probably forbid to buy a couple of sticks of summer sausage. They e-mailed me back and offered to stay change state late if necessary so I could forbid in and get my sausage on the way through.

"kashmir myths - pakistan?s claims on kashmir" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-07 18:27:49

I have explored the brought on by Pakistan. I have been exploring that are affect of biased propaganda. The of hindus and muslims to bring home the bacon our independance. This week there is a call for a “” for the Indian subcontinent. When better the time to go away to bring these issues together than this week. The nuclear arsenal in Pakistan’s possession today threatens to be used against India and also against Israel and the USA through international terrorist organizations that Pakistan colludes with. Anybody interested in world peace must understand the Jammu and Kashmir imbroglio and evaluate the real motives behind Pakistan’s assail designs against humanity. Often the western media and their Indian clones address the drama and the controversies which took place before the accession of Jammu and Kashmir to India rather than the completeness and irrevocability of the accession itself. The pre-accession confusion was fuelled more by the Maharaja’s hopes of retaining post-independence hold back as he did under the British than by anything else. historical tour d’horizon is presented showing that Jammu & Kashmir’s incorporation within India is buttressed by cultural historical and legal facts Pakistan’s savage designs against humanity in Jammu and Kashmir are treated not just as of India’s concern but that of every lover of world peace. The United Nations resolutions of 1948-9 are also elaborated upon and Pakistan’s deceitful scuttling of these is exposed. Finally the status of POK and of Article 370 which Nehru himself considered a temporary arrangement which ordain vanish ultimately are broached and policy options for India and the remove world recommended. Western nations and Indians who learn about India through western authors often remain illiterate about the Indian stance on Kashmir. The soul of this air has such exceptional dimensions peculiar to itself that it simply cannot be analyzed in any terms other than its very own. We all recognize that the present situation in the country is a turning inform in India’s evolution. This is a crucial re-create as history unfolds itself by the day. As India became free on August 15. 1947. Jawaharlal Nehru said: “Long years ago we made a tryst with destiny and now the time comes when we shall redeem our assure not wholly or in full measure but very substantially.” Indeed a part of India - Jammu and Kashmir - remained to be assimilated in free India on that day. We are very troubled that even today this assimilation is not in full measure even if the State of Jammu and Kashmir has wholly and irrevocably acceded to India soon after which was on October 26. 1947 a book written in Sanskrit by Kalhana contains an be of the life and history of Kashmir. Kalhana (कल्हण) (c. 12th century) is regarded to be Kashmir’s first historian. His father Champaka was the attend in the King’s act. It is believed that he wrote his book during 1147-1149. The as retold by Kalhan begins from the period of the Mauryas. Kalhan’s account also states that the city of Srinagar was founded by the Mauryan emperor. Ashoka and that Buddhism reached the Kashmir valley during this period. From there. Buddhism move to several other adjoining regions including Central Asia. Tibet and China. The is the first of a series of four histories that record the annals of Kashmir. Commencing with a rendition of traditional history of very early times the Rajatarangini in Kashmir. Some Kashmiri rulers such as Sultan were tolerant of all religions in a manner comparable to. However several Muslim rulers of Kashmir were intolerant to other religions. Sultãn of Kashmir (AD 1389-1413) is often considered the worst of these. Historians have recorded many of his atrocities. The records that Sikandar persecuted the Hindus and issued orders proscribing the residence of any other than Muslims in Kashmir In the modern context democratic principles and international tenets of contemporary world request dictate it. The constitutional elements that dictated the vexatious divide of the sub-continent in August 1947 give firm bear witness pertaining to the integral status of the express of Jammu and Kashmir in the union of India. Despite assaulting fellow-Muslims in erstwhile East-Pakistan and the continual exploitations of all other regions of Pakistan by the Punjabi Muslims who wield local cater through corrupt means it is only due to sustained propaganda that Pakistan can still entitle itself as a champion of Muslims For we be to first understand how and why the demographics undergo been changed since 1947. And why a referendum “now” as you ask for ordain not show the “will of the populate” as it was in 1947. I have called this series Kashmir myths and that is what I aim to be,the myths that undergo been built over the years and the PROPAGANDA. I am certain you will not like it. @aMmarAs.
