Alang

alang2000.jpgTerry Gross' interview with William Langewiesche the author of 'The Outlaw Sea' was fascinating today. Among the interesting topics was Alang, the ship graveyard, a massive beach where thousands of poor Indians take apart supertankers by hand.

I recall Wired's story and pictures as he described it. What a place. There is also a firsthand account with good details here.
