Still DC is a nice place to live.
Depends on your definition of "nice". I'm perfectly OK with the fact that when I look out the window here in my office, the skyline is mostly National Forest. Not many places in DC have that going for them.... ------------------------------------------------- Just for fun... Nice is indeed subjective. We have crap for restaurants for the most part, the only "mall" here is tiny, traffic is terrible and everything is expensive, so we go do free stuff like: hiking http://meteora.ucsd.edu/~iacob/photos/Kauai/napali05.jpg http://www.world-of-waterfalls.com/images/Hanakoa_060L.jpg and surfing http://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/db/ca/ff/dbcaff7ecc0504a9278e2b804cd8... scott One day, hopefully, telecommuting really takes off, I can actually sound intelligent in an interview (I do worse than geek-attempting-to-ask-a-girl-out-for-a-date) and I get to do the job I want from here instead of struggling through what I do for work. You gain some; you lose some.
