"Scott, if there are too many people, you can always reduce the number by one. "

Thanks for the invite, but the police will never believe you =really= meant to give me permission.

I have lived all over California, and the vast majority of people I have been acquainted with would rather live in the smallest town possible. "can always" is the phrase I saw you use, that I am certain you cannot corroborate. The main factor here is money: it is a far tougher existence in this society when a car costing $18k is equal to 75% of your annual income, rather than 33%. "can always" meaning living on welfare? Most people I have met on welfare do not like it.

No, most people grit their teeth and rationalize away why they live in big cities. Rural employment pays too little. Few say, "I'm going to retire in downtown..I love the "action"."

They have had "civilization" in India far longer than most places. Just because it doesn't fit the Roman Catholic Church definition, it nonetheless is considered "civilized" regardless of your flip dismissal for the sake of your position.

By the way, learn a little about the planet you live on. Or, may I ask, "What did you do with the real Maurice, and are others coming here too?"
