I fail to comprehend how they've operated for 25 years without being arrested or run out of town. Or maybe your statements are just groundless.
This statement is completely ridiculous. Go to Midtown Atlanta on Pride Weekend and get back to me on that opinion, if you ever escape from the traffic jam.
Atlanta is an island of civilization compared to most of the south (including decent sized cities like birmingham which are not). Don't excuse GA by citing Atlanta.
Exactly. Cities are always outliers. If you didn't tell someone they were in the south, they probably wouldn't know it if they stayed within downtown Atlanta. But my experiences between small towns in the south and Atlanta (I currently live in ATL and have lived in the south since 2001) are VASTLY different.
I'm trying to connect with other Atlanta-area hackers (I'm presently in Midtown and work at Tech Square). Care to chat over coffee sometime?
