Wrong state, you're thinking of West Virginia. Here in NC we all fuck farm animals. :-P

NC has its hicks but at least the urban areas are relatively hick-free. NC has many world famous colleges. Just the triad (where I live and work) is the home of Duke, UNC-Chapel Hill, and NC State University. IBM has one of its largest sites in Research Triangle Park, where 11,000 IBM employees and contractors work.

I noticed the summary was tagged "bigbrother" but this isn't really big brother this is more nanny state. Which, granted, to a certain degree 1984 was a nanny state, but more so through the cripple of minds than the crippling of freedoms.

Soon children will wear devices that monitor their bloodsugar and hormone levels and if the levels drop too much (i.e. the kid is hungry) for too long, parents will be charged with criminal negligence and thrown in jail and the kids put into foster care where they won't be so horribly mistreated.
