You may be right... I guess my personal bias against California is showing thru (nothing against any Californians here - you all have my deepest sympathies
).
I just don't see California as the be-all end-all when it comes to the latest "cutting edge trends". Sure they've had their moments... but I think (I hope) their supposed reign is over. Real estate there is
stupidly expensive, they're trying to get their own legislative measures passed on higher MPG requirements, many of their prominent cities are
vehemently anti-military, plus they've got all the loony brain-dead Hollywood celebrities all over the place telling us what we should be doing (like THEY know best)...
I think it's time that they reap what they sow, and if ANY business there decides it's time to pull up their stakes in search of greener pastures elsewhere, they've got my full support.
