yeah it is pretty neat, i heard about this a while back on NPR. they interviwed the sherpa dude that was starting it and as problems are the same the world over, his dad was pissed because he wasnt carrying stuff up mountains like a respectable sherpa, but rather he was messing with computers and that kind of nonsense.
