...refugees with the common bond of having been bombed out of a job. They are a mixture of "good ole boys" with beer bellies bulging over the belts of their double-knit slacks, trim women in stylish pantsuits and fur jackets, and young managers and technicians in three-button, charcoal gray suits. The newcomers, skittish and self-conscious at first, soon relax as they sense that they are not alone. Hardly anyone reads to kill time. Conversation is minimal and muted.

...duplicate an Aztec fish of flexible silver plates inlaid with gold. The earlier goldworking cultures of Peru used hammered sheets as their basic material, but the Colombian artisans preferred to cast their images from gold. They were masters of the lost-wax technique, whereby a model of clay and charcoal was formed and then covered with thin sheets and threads of finely worked beeswax; this was mantled with clay and dried, then heated, so that the wax ran out of the mold and molten metal could be poured in to take its place...
