I wish I had been able to visit Europe. I did get to work out in the
Pacific and see some amazing things and I did stay in Mexico for a
while. I also got to see the foreign country of Californiastan while
I worked for an electrical contractor traveling from San Diego to North
of San Francisco. It's such a shame the way it's inhabitants are
treating such a beautiful and fertile country. ^_^

TDD



Interesting you mention that. Silicon Valley, that wall to wall city from
San Francisco to San Jose, is buillt on the MOST fertile soil in the
world, and thick, something like 10 to 40 feet thick I was told. Maybe
someday we'll get hungry enough and tear all that down to grow food, eh?
