hahahaha, you must be joking. according to a recent SF chronicle story, the median home price in the bay area is now the highest ever, despite the economy, at $402,000. That includes all the bad neighborhoods and poor urban areas. You'll have to go more than 100 miles away to own a home for 150K, like perhaps Nevada. Of course, traffic is so bad that commuting from 100 miles away with all the other suburban refugees will take you longer than it takes to fly here from Chicago. And you're a web developer? oh sure, you'll find work easy. you and about 500,000 other recently unemployed dot-commers in the area will be competing for the only available job, but assuming you can hack the competition, you'll get it! Pack your bags and come on out! The weather is great here. kim At 12:57 PM 6/3/2002, Brother Sean wrote: >After being on this list now for around 8 months I have to say I m quite >jealous of you California Loopers. >Having LoopStock and all I just can t resist anymore I feel compelled to >move closer to the action. >Currently I m located in Chicago, IL.
