My Netscape (v6.2) bombed, too, but the website works fine when I used
Internet Explorer.

Not that people couldn't guess from the subject line - but perhaps you
could remember your nettiquette and mark these rediculous posts OT?

The Karen (pronounced Ka REN) of thailand and burma have some beautiful xs
stuff that they use(jackets, bedthrows, hats, What is interesting is that
many of the Thai hill tribes do their xs fromthe back, which means that the
xxxxdon't always cross in the same direction. I had some Hill tribe stuff, tho
not sure which tibe, when i lived in thailand.

Well, harrumph! They can't even pronounce it properly.

Hmmmmmm. Methinks a visit to the Asian Refugee Center is in order so I can
find some granny to show me how this is done. From the back?!?!?!?! My feeble
little brain can't even begin to work that out.

Good question!

Though there was a complaint about the website crashing someone's browser, so
maybe it's the computer problems that needs to be marked OT? (And to answer
that post, karen.org didn't crash my browser, so I can't tell you what's wrong
or how to solve it.)

I do have IE. I tried it again later and it worked fine. I think it's
just my computer acting wonky, probably needs to be reformatted. *sigh*
