Skummet, welcome. Glad to know the Kingdom of Denmark is represented. What’s the weather like? Sassy, you are one of the few, the proud, the born in S.F. crowd. Honestly, since I’ve moved to S.F. ('75) I’ve only met a handful of people who were actually born here. sirdiesel - Longiland is great, I like the view of Manhattan from there. Anniz, nice to see you. Sweden is well represented on SMB it seems. goboy, is NV on your licence plate? ---

Silicon Valley - it’s own little world for the moment. Of course, we don’t have weather or shrubbery, we have neon and cubicles. Also, the occasional foosball machine. Did I mention caffeine and pizza? And money. Lots of money. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/we-are-the-world/27728.md?page=1)
