Gordon,

Designing and manufacturing a microprocessor requires a couple of billion dollars worth of investment, several major universities, and few dozen of the best engineers in the world.

I'm not sure that most small towns are up to the challenge.

Excuse me for offending the Politically Correct non-sensibilities of the GOP.

Gordon, In today local paper there was an article that reported the the New England power grid will have more the enough power for the summer. The power companies here have been adding more and more capacity over the years. In fact the head of the Power Consortium said that the increased capacity is so great the for the first time New England may become a net exporter of Electricity.

Of course all the local greenie weinies are upset and very critical. You see having excess capacity is a bad thing that interferes with conservation.

City dolts had to find a way to earn money to feed and clothe themselves and their criminal offspring.
I presume you are simply pulling scumbag's chain when you say this and in fact don't really believe it.
All of of us criminals? Then the country would have been dead a long time ago.
And all countryfolk pure as the driven snow? I can think of many exceptions.
