I agree with you that no one really dreams of moving to Sacramento for any reason, but a lot of people end up there. As a UC Davis graduate working for a software company in the Sacramento area (El Dorado Hills technically, about 40 minutes east of Sac), I'd have to say it does seem like a little version of Silicon Valley in some ways. Not Sacramento itself, to be more specific Folsom and El Dorado Hills, because there's a huge Intel campus in Folsom, and lots of little tech and software companies strewn around the whole area. I wish there were more software companies in Sacramento proper though, because when I moved from Sac to Folsom to reduce my commute stresses my cost of living doubled. Stupid sub-burbs.

NOOOOOOBody expects the Russian Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise... surprise and thermonuclear missiles. Our TWO weapons are surprise and thermonuclear missiles... and ruthless efficiency.

I think most intelligent people who have used psychedelic drugs would attest to this. There's definitely certain things hardwired into our brains, and certain drugs can open up those areas for exploration. LSD and psilocybin both induce a predisposition for religious and spiritual thoughts, as well as many of the patterns and images found in the earliest of art.
