That's neat. And after glancing through this thread, it looks like I'm not the only Michigander here.

Correction. I am an ex-Michigander. I live in Missouri now, thanks to the crappy economy in Michigan.

Re: Timezones Check In
Michigan mafia?! Naw, it was just the reds and the blues; that is, seeing the Michigan economy go into the red and getting blue over not finding a job fresh out of college. Now, I do not live where the Blues play hockey; instead, I live near where the red Chiefs play football with a Royals blue crown.
P.S. It is not flat here; and no, Dorothy and corn fields are nowhere in sight.

Re: Timezones Check In
Michigan's economy really is the pits, and in my business (software) we have the wierdest thing happening . . . southeast Michigan is on the verge of becoming classified as a third world country. Instead of outsourcing to India or China and dealing with the language/culture/legal/distance issues, we have some companies coming here and setting up their sweatshops with the (relatively) cheap developers here. The going rate for a programmer here is something like 40-50% less than it is in Silicon Valley, and they aren't seen to be anywhere near as flighty as the 'primadonnas' out there.

Re: Timezones Check In
That's where the biggest "sweatshops" are, since nobody but Compuware wants to be in Detroit itself.
To be fair, I did work for Compuware for a number of years, starting well before they decided to move downtown and extending to two years ago. Compuware sold off the part of the company I worked in (Automated Software Quality) to a British firm, Micro Focus, and the first thing they did was to move us all out to Troy.
That didn't help my commute any, since I live near Belleville, but at least I don't need to concern myself with panhandlers outside the building anymore.
