Except for the saturation of obeasts, it's actually a beautiful place to live, and I don't know of another place with the sort of climate and recreational opportunities we have here. Besides, as the article demonstrates, the hams aren't in my normal activity locales, so they're escapable on a temporary basis at least...  But if I could find a comparable place in those aepects without the negatives I'd be out in a heartbeat. Maybe CO? Hmm...
