Ditto to delmoi. I like wandering around in this state. And yes, we do have indoor plumbing. Got it last week.

Iowa may seem backwards in the eyes of some but we've got a lot of people in Legislator that realize stiffling business isn't good for the economy. A number of years back they passed a bill stating that businesses would only be taxed on profits they made within Iowa. Sell something to Texas? Tax-Free. Had a real effect on the economy (the city I live in is just booming right now with only 1-2 percent unemployment rates).

If Iowa becomes a 'bomb-shelter', maybe more businesses will drop by. I'll get some corn on the cob ready for them.
