I think it's like going to LA - yeah that's where most of the major deals go down, but 8 out of 10 waitresses are also aspiring actresses. If you take a random sampling of people in the valley, you are much more likely to find people trying to break into the business than people who have already made it.

I've talked to some people about why silicon valley is where it is and some say it's pretty arbitrary, some even claim that a new "silicon prairie" if you will, could be started here. Then the temperature goes from 52 to 12 with -11 windchill and, suddenly, we realize all over again why we too want to move to California.
