Seborga goatbags, again, looking like Spokane products

No, it would prove that he is a real person with real opinions. But I am no completely sure he is who i think he is. Based on he's recently admitted penchant for the old copy and paste from other forums, I could be completely wrong. And based on that and that alone i have no right to "out him"

 

What the (bleep!) is it with people over in eastern Washington? Don't they have anything better to do than operate unaccredited schools?

 

There isn't much over there and at least some of it is radioactive. There is a reason 2/3 of Washington's population is on the western 1/3!

 

The other reason why 1/3 of the state (Western Washington) has 2/3 of the population is because that 1/3 of the state has a fairly interesting city called Seattle while the other 2/3 of the state (Eastern Washington) has, what?, forests and deserts.

 

Hmmm

Are you saying Seattle attracted the population or is a creation of the population being on that side of the state? While I like Seattle I don't see it as being better than many cities in Washington or Oregon. Oregon, of course also has 2/3's of its population west of the Rockies. The eastern side of both states is just more harsh and desolate. It is still beautiful though.

 

On your first question, probably both. If 2/3 of a state's population occupies 1/3 of it's land area, that makes for a population density four times as much as the other 2/3 of that state's land area that holds only 1/3 of it's population. Thus, Seattle is a creation of a large population being concentrated in a small area. On the other hand, big cities do have certain things to offer that tend to attract population. Big cities generally have more jobs at better pay than can be found in small towns and rural areas. Thus, young people would generally look to get out of eastern Washington (or eastern Oregon or western Colorado) and seek their future in Seattle (or Portland or Denver). Of course, an urban area with a big university has another advantage: back when I lived in Seattle (1986-2001), Seattle had 55 used bookstores.

 

different matter

The "Marquis Open University" site is a hoot. We know of the ...um... biases concerning minority groups to be found in the various posts and emails coming out of the Saint Regis gang. (For those of you who are knew to this, there is a certain hostility to Jews, African-Americans, and homosexuals to be found in their writings.)

MOU supports the following student clubs, among others:

• Black Standing Committee
• Hebrew
• Gay and Lesbian Alliance
• on line Jews

Yow!

 

]Hey when it rains you can have your choice of book store or coffee shop! or, if you are headed for Powell's City of Books, both!

 

Re: different matter

So, in other words, if I was a black Jew on the down low, Marquis Open University would be a better choice of school than Saint Regis University? Good to know! Thanks!

 

LOL. Make that the Cascades! Big difference!

 

Well, nowadays, living in Ottawa County, Ohio, Powell's is a bit of a ways away. But I did make the three-hour trip from Seattle to Portland many a time just to go to Powell's (and check out a few of Portland's other used bookstores as well). I recall one time when I was checking out bookstores in Portland at about 9:00 at night, I was walking between a couple of used bookstores and I pulled out my pack of cigarettes and began singing the old Queen tune _Play The Game_ ("When you're feeling down and your resistance is low, light another cigarette and let yourself go... ") and some street band asked me if I'd like to join them. I declined.
