Hey Pudgy.....Here in Oregon's Willamette Valley, Kal-Pa-Da is actually spelled Calipooia or Kalpuya, the name of the group of Indian Tribes that populated the valley up until the White Man messed up their paradise. Unfortunately, the Calipooia did not like beads very much from the historical evidence we find at their sites.
Oh....and before you ask....my credentials include a BS in Entomology (which has nothing to do with beads!) and 55+ years of active study/collecting of West Coast artifacts and beads.
Just trying for a bit of levity here....
