I would like to extend a thanks to Keith too.
My appeal to all Engineers is to consider recent Yahoo news that Fresno, California now declared the #1 IV/Meth/Ilicit Drug City in the U.S. The key factor cited is poverty, low wages, access to good jobs, education. Fresno air basin also the #1 or #2 most Air Polluted Basin in the United States. If any engineers need a place to experiement with new technologies please consider Fresno as an opportunity. (We have some good bluegrass music festivals down there too) I am sorry to see this happen to my home area even though I now reside in Seattle area - I continute volunteer on Fresno Operation Clean Air. The Sierra Club, League of Women Voters, business people, NRDC, and local Ministries are teaming up in some ways - although there have been battles. Thanks for your time.
