Participant[quote=konakai]Temecula is great if you want more affordable housing and miles and miles of surburban housing and big box stores. Also, most people that I know move up there really miss San Diego and regret their decision. I was one of them. I could not wait to get back into San Diego. Quite frankly, it lacks professional performing arts programs (except for children’s programs). Got any musemums and zoos close by?? I realize you are sensitive about Temecula, and no more reason to write anymore. I am sorry that I touched a nerve.[/quote]
Good observations regarding Temecula. It’s funny you mention this, as I spend a good deal of my time in San Diego and I can never find a BIG BOX store around when I need one.
Where are they?
Someone please tell me, where are the BIG BOX stores in San Diego? Have they been zoned out of existence?

Participant[quote=6packscaredy]We always save the genetic link. We are so wired.
But what if the drowning kid is from Somalia and you’re walking through a park in turkmenistan. You still save him because he’s right in front of you. The Somalia kid not in front of you doesn’t seem as urgent to save.
We have some duty to fellow humans even not in our tribe even not local. We feel it. But what should we do about it?[/quote]
It’s all about The MonkeySphere.
Who is in your MonkeySphere? Who isn’t?
From Cracked:
What do monkeys have to do with war, oppression, crime, racism and even e-mail spam? You’ll see that all of the random ass-headed cruelty of the world will suddenly make perfect sense once we go Inside the Monkeysphere.
First, picture a monkey. A monkey dressed like a little pirate, if that helps you. We’ll call him Slappy.
Imagine you have Slappy as a pet. Imagine a personality for him. Maybe you and he have little pirate monkey adventures and maybe even join up to fight crime. Think how sad you’d be if Slappy died.
Now, imagine you get four more monkeys. We’ll call them Tito, Bubbles, Marcel and ShitTosser. Imagine personalities for each of them now. Maybe one is aggressive, one is affectionate, one is quiet, the other just throws shit all the time. But they’re all your personal monkey friends.
Now imagine a hundred monkeys.
Not so easy now, is it? So how many monkeys would you have to own before you couldn’t remember their names? At what point, in your mind, do your beloved pets become just a faceless sea of monkey? Even though each one is every bit the monkey Slappy was, there’s a certain point where you will no longer really care if one of them dies.
So how many monkeys would it take before you stopped caring?
That’s not a rhetorical question. We actually know the number.

ParticipantMy apologies, I was not trying to make this into a Temecula vs SD debate.
I’d love to move to San Diego (closer to work), but I can’t afford any areas in San Diego with schools comparable to Temecula (again, at my price point).
Speaking of values, I should qualify by saying I can’t afford San Diego without my spouse returning to work.
My spouse is a California certified teacher, and yet one of us staying home with the kids is that important.
Participant[quote=FlyerInHi]Capital knows no borders.
Why should there be equity for the majority in certain country? To me, it does not make economic sense to have a middle class country full of people of different skill levels.
It makes more sense to have parity worldwide for people within different layers of skills. We could probably increase world GDP that way and maximize the standard of living of the most people worldwide.
Btw, economics as a science is not the same as philosophy of life, or nationalism, or patriotism.[/quote]

San Diego is a bad value, and as scaredy has mentioned San Diego and San Francisco are great if you’re rich or bought a long time ago. [/quote]
By buying a long time ago in San Diego do you mean 2011?[/quote]
I would guess pre mid 90’s.
Participant[quote=spdrun]Those look to be an over-engineered solution to a problem of having a one-way door. Much simpler would be a large revolving door (the better to accommodate passengers and luggage) with a motion sensor that sets off an alarm if someone passes through the “wrong” side of the circle. Or even a turnstile with motion sensors to prevent backflow.
This is some parasitic govno-mint contractor selling TSA an overpriced, overly complicated device. Wonder who’s getting the kickbacks and how much they are. To be clear, they are NOT at terminal exits, but at the exit of the secure airside part of the terminal. They are also not body scanners.[/quote]
Good points, are you sure though they’re not body scanners. That may be an add-on option.
Participant[quote=flu]
I think it’s gonna be much worse then that.Here’s what I’m thinking…
1. Housing will be unaffordable for most people.
2. Student loan debt will be up the creek.
3. Job prospects will be fierce with tighter global competition for top paying jobs
4. Taxes will be extremely high for those still working
5. The wealth gap between the people with assets (have’s) versus most that don’t (have not’s) will be even larger.
6. Healthcare will be a huge problem…[/quote]

ParticipantDid anyone encounter the TSA detention pods during their travels over the holiday?
