This Voice of America website / blog denied my comment a public presence.
I introduced myself as "third culture" (Rome, Philippines...) and finding America weird, not unlike Portland.
But no one is talking "Civil War" Marcus (real name?) or rather, we Left Coasties aren't trying to start a fight. Like we won already OK? :-D
As a Cascadian, I was simply grateful for WDC's retreating self-importance. Why not? Pacific Rim wasn't born yesterday right?
Anyway, a fascinating discussion. I'm enjoying the science fiction aspects.
