While I'm sure Tesla would face the same kind of stupid auto dealer protectionism in any state where they do business, I wish they'd come to Indiana, which has a great deal of experience building RV's.If they took hold of a midwestern state, it would have a greater positive impact on the region than down in Texas.

It's not just tech companies who need tech workers. Many companies outside of tech need tech workers. And those companies can be located anywhere.
The problem is the cost of living is so high in tech areas like the SF Bay that intelligent workers REQUIRE higher pay. Then in backwards states like Indiana, where tech workers are not respected in the least, pay is worse than factory workers and the governor prefers to outsource the state's unemployment database work to India, claiming there's no money for job training in the state budget.

you know who the real terrorists were? Bush & Cheney, Rumsfeld & Rice, and their manservant Tony Blair.

so David Cameron, shut your pie hole.
but first, the space Escalator.
Thank you!
great to make tiny pc's but that doesn't help those of us who want more computing power.
if you're going to spend money bringing something to the moon, it should be nanobots that self-assemble a moon base.
a valid drivers license for personal use, or a valid drivers license for business use? in the states we have a special test and license procedure for this practice called a CDL (commercial drivers license) which is required if you're carrying cargo or passengers for a fee.
Irish Republicans are a totally different thing
No amount of careful planning will ever replace dumb luck.
