Overspecialization

Maybe it’s just that as a new northwesterner, I’m used to stores that sell lots of stuff. Costco is from the Seattle area. In contrast, New York has little corner shops that do nothing but eyebrow plucking. Or sell kitchen sinks.

And so it was weird to pass by some shops on the train:
* Mr. Bar Stool
* Gray Iron Castings.

Gray Iron Castings? Do they turn you away if you want black or silver iron castings?

Wow.
