Why we're better than San Francisco

OK, I'm not really going to make the argument that the Triangle is better than San Francisco - even though here it's MUCH cheaper, safer, less congested....well, that list could go on for awhile.  San Francisco is my hometown and I think it's the greatest place on Earth, however....

When you read the news about how so many other areas are bankrupt and doing nothing but slashing, it's nice to get off the plane at RDU and see this:

While SFO has made significant improvements to its international terminal, the domestic terminal in San Francisco is still a dump.

The point is, we constantly see progress here - we see it in the revitalization of downtown Raleigh, the American Tobacco complex in Durham, the many businesses that have chosen to call the Triangle home, and yes - in our awesome new airport, which is the first thing visitors to our area see.

It may not be fair to compare us to San Francisco, but then again we don't have to anymore.  We're in a class all our own.
