It is easy to forget that there is a HUGE military presence here. That brings in a conservative tone. Who'd a thunk the Pads would be in 1st place? They were predicted to mop up the cellar this season! Chargers preseason game on Sat; I live spitting distance to the stadium so I will not enjoy coming and going from home to the convention on Sat. Tailgaters will be about by 10 am for a 6 pm game. I think people are complaining about the weather because there is little else to complain about here. Economy is bad; but a little tiny tad better than in most places. It's cleaner and safer than most big cities. There is plenty to do--both costly and free. Cheaper for locals; we hit the zoo and museums in the off-season when they have free days or great specials. But, it is a near-record breaking cool summer. Yes, it is warm :) And if you come back in January, if it's not the one week that we get rain all year round (sorry Mike, everyone else was probably rejoicing that one week you came for rainy weather), it will be exactly the same weather. Warm and dry. But no one will be complaining then--well, maybe about the drought. Because it seems that people often find something to complain about. Annette Annette Kujawski Taylor, Ph. D.

Man1: "My daughter has become... (long pause) very liberal." Man2: "Really. What does she do?" Man1: "She's become a teacher." Man2: "Well, you know, they brainwash them in the academy." The Padres beat the Pirates 4-1. Chris -- Christopher D.
