Things have changed in Atlanta!  The only time I was there was 1978, Hi End
Hi Fi Convention.  I thought it charming and really inexpensive.  The
publisher of "Absolute Sound", Harry Pearson [SP?] had this great old house,
two story, maybe 3500 square feet, that he said was worth $35,000.  At that
time in Sacramento I had [and my ex wife still has] a 2000 square foot home
on the river which was worth about 140k.

Anyway we don't have neat stuff like that in our trash.  I was, and am
trying to be again, a runner and never see really cool stuff like you guys
have.  [But I can go running in the morning and not cramp up because it's so
humid I sweated out too much salt!].

I'm waiting to hear from the Bay Area, San Francisco, Marin, Palo Alto, and
Silicon Valley.  I have a friend in Palo Alto that lives in an old, 40's?,
800 square foot, two bedroom, crudy little house.  The identical one across
the street sold last year for $400k+.  Boy what trash they have.
