re: WA Yuppo, plenty of jobs around here,,,,as unemployment is second or third worst in the nation... You're kidding, WA unemployment is that bad? I would have said N Ca the worst unemployment with maybe one of the LA areas second worst. Then Boulder or other CO areas which I found out recently are devastated due to the telecom collapse and a bunch of large call centers (incl ORCL) that used to be there. If you've got a call center in your town and you are the mayor.... kiss your ass goodbye <gg> Anyway with Nordstroms and Starbucks and Amazon (who is doing well) I'm a little surprised WA was hit so bad.
