"The coldest winter I have ever spent was the summer I spent in SanFransico."


That\'s probably true.  It doesn\'t reach 90 and 100 here all that often, but to give you an example of how the climate is so limited to this region, just drive north or south from SF for about 30 minutes and the temperature adjusts a good 10-20 degrees higher.  It\'s the fact that it remains consistantly at 50-70 all year round that makes it desireable.

Hooray Ryu, to bad I\'ve noticed the weather there rains far to much from what my cousin tells me. And its colder than I would like at times during the summer.


That\'s funny, it hasn\'t rained here in quite awhile.  You must have been talking to your cousin during el nino.

well I\'ve contacted the Portland recruiter, and have e-mailed a few others.  Still no contact from Portland though, either they\'re assholes, or they don\'t check their e-mail often.

of yea work for naperville, winetka, highland park or lake forest, beautiful rich chicago suburbs that probably pay very, very well
