Of all the things you listed, none of them are exclusive to Cali ;)
Not to mention it's expensive, polluted, and overpopulated. :p |

| Kitchener, Ontario.... hmm... home of RIM (well waterloo really but what's the diff?), the largest Bavarian festival outside of Munich, birthplace of.... me, and was called Berlin until the first great war when most of the Germans who inhabited the town were thrown into internment camps (my great grandpa included) and those of English and Scottish decent siezed the opportunity to show the Kaiser a lesson by changing the name to that of an English Naval hero, oh and the location of the famed University of Waterloo (which due to it's world class engineering department and love of foreign students is now officially the 6th largest Asian nation).... oh, and my school Wilfrid Laurier University (a bastion of the WASP elites in Canada... I'm not sure how I got in there). |

None are exclusive, but all belong to CA. California also has the greatest variation in climate I think of any state, not to mention the lowest and highest points in the continental states. /travel agent
Yeah its butt feckin expensive, and the smog can be bad, and theres alot of people, but we are one of the most environmentally forward thinking states! |

| ^^^ California is the micro cosim for North America as a whole. You got a whack of rednecks outside of the major centres, a boat load of poor mexicans trying to scrape by, a bunch of rich jews running the show, and a handful of Canadians doing everything better then everyone else but trying despertly not to be identified as Canucks.... oh and dirty, slutty women everywhere trying to get paid for nothing more then taking the dick. |

Northern Cali = Wonderful.
Southern Cali = Hell on Earth. Well, I mean besides the Vatican.
It's a nice place to visit, but I could never stay - I much prefer Oregon and Washington on the left coast.
But as far as the environmentally forward thinking part - Eh, you're half right. The problem is that there is enough of a republican/business/entertainment lobby in California securing lower production costs combined with increased total output at the expense of some fairly serious environmental legislation. So while a lot of high profile environmental legislation and proposals in Cali get loads of coverage from national news media, in general the "business" end of things is still winning out - Hopefully this will change over the course of the next few years though :)
But hey, Wisco's no better. It's cold and full of white people here. ;)
And a lot of us hate people who are different. It's really a bummer. |
