Sorry, no link, I typed it in myself. At the Smithsonian Mag web site they offer an abstract of the article:

http://www.smithsonianmag.si.edu/smithsonian/issues03/feb03/afghan.html

But the abstract does not contain the quotes I posted. I wish I could provide a link, but I can't.

Thanks, I also looked around on their site, right after I realized how lazy that link request made me appear.
